O.K. i'll admit i'm truly concidering buying a Wii, But the only reason i want one is to play the old games i used to play when i was a kid, and yes, i do want to play 1 or 2 of the games like zelda and the future metroid... Other than that some one tell me is the wii really worth it...I see on the charts there's over 7 million of them sold, so there has to be more than two good games on it...

If you want a Gamecube with a little more RAM and last generation graphics along with horrible outdated looking games and bad 3rd party support then buy it!

Depends what type of games you like. I ended up looking for games I would enjoy for each system and I found a very little amount on the Wii. Some games to come for Wii that I cared to write down:

Animal Crossing (Wii)
CRASH of the Titans (Wii, Xbox360)
DBZ3 (Wii)
Fire Emblem (Wii)
Guitar Hero 3 (Wii, Xbox360, PS3)
Harvest Moon (Wii)
Man hunt 2 (Wii)
Metroid Prime 3 (Wii)
Resident Evil 4 (Wii)
Resident Evil: Chronicle (Wii)
SSX Blur (Wii)
Super Mari Galaxy (Wii)
SSBB (Wii)
Zelda (Wii)

Most are shortended down in name since I knew which version or kinda of that game I wanted.

The only impressions are older people and families like it, it's pretty rare and limited in stock, and the controller looked sort of small atleast in the package to me.

Wii sports wont fit on your Gamecube because you did not drop $250 bones for the 1.5 minimal upgrade.

Ohhh that explains it, I did pay $250.

My upgrade consisted of:

mii,s vote channel, news channel, weather channel, browser wii sports, wii play, same controller, wifi,wavebrid

> Xbox graphics, an awesome lineup,and the virtual console.

I got the Wii last week and it is awesome. Plus i think getting one now is the best time so you can save money for VC points and the big games coming out in the near future. The controls aren't that hard to get used and it is the most fun i have had with a console system since the N64.

You should get one, but not yet.

A lot of the games you would probably enjoy will be out at the end of the year. So, you could try to get one then or when there's a price drop.

That's my advice

I disagree... You cant trulyjudge a system until youve spent a pretty good amount of time with it, and i'm asking people who have spent more time with it than i have... And IfI just so happen to hear somegood things, I will take itinto concideration b4 i buy it... WHATS SOWRONG WITH THAT???

Because I know this guy's tastes, and I know they don't match up with what the Wii has to offer. Sure he expresses desire in playing Zelda and Metroid Prime 3, but I can tell you right now if he bought those games at the behest of the sheep in this thread, he would hold it against all Nintendo fans afterward.

I know, unlike most Nintendo fanboys, that Nintendo games aren't for everyone. This person is one of those people Nintendo is not for. I don't know why that's so hard to accept.

As a complimentary console it could work. But I wouldnt recommend it if its going to be your only console for the rest of this generation. There will be many gaming droughts.

You must be having somuch fun from your HD system to come and whine about the Wii all the time. Either that, or you are jealous that little Wii is kicking your little PS3 or 360a**around so you feel threatened enough to trot out the same excuses.

As makingthe thread starterbuy a Wii. Spend more time looking at the games that are out now or are coming out later this year and then make a decision. Either way I'm not telling you to buy it because its your own choice to make and SW is not the best place to get an informed opinion, this the trash heap of theGS forums.

I'm a troll? No, I'm obviously THE ONLY PERSON IN THIS THREAD that bothered to check this guy's profile to see what his tastes are. The only games he's bothered to register are Resistance, Gears of War, Oblivion, and MotorStorm, and the only game he's rated is Motor Storm. He gave it an 8.1. ANYONE who would give a AA score to MotorStorm would be dissatisfied with their Wii purchase, it's pretty straightforward.

Yeah that's why I played Resistance Fall of man ONLINE for about 5 hours today. Also ive spent about 200 hours on Oblivion for PS3, name one game now available for the Wii that can give that replay value.

Notice i didn't even mention the graphics!

RPG/Action Adventure

I'd say wait a while.There isn't much released or announced in those categories yet. Wait at least for E3, to see if a lot of games that you're interested in are announced (there are hints that at least a few big RPG's will be announced). Even then I would wait longer, until there are a few games out that you're interested in. It would probably be easier to find a Wii then and some games will have become cheaper by then.

To me, if you're a huge fan of Nintendo's franchises, then yes it is worth it. If not, still too early to tell if it will be worth it in the end of not.

Listen to me, Setfree. The Wii doesn't have what you want. You may enjoy the virtual console games from your youth briefly, but I can tell you're not the kind of person who liked the direction Nintendo's games (that is to say, not their marketing)have taken since Metroid Prime, and because of that, this system is not for you.

I for one, love my Wii. But I have the kind of taste a person like you would call gay or "kiddy" or something. And because of the simple difference in taste betwen you and I, I know what your reaction to the Wii would be once you took it home.

You'll thank me later if you don't buy it, and you'll hate Nintendo fanboys even more than you do now if you do buy it.

If you want a Gamecube with a little more RAM and last generation graphics along with horrible outdated looking games and bad 3rd party support then buy it!

WalterPaladines

He's asking about the Wii

I am talking about the Gamecube 1.5 also known as the Wii.

I don't get it, this Wii sports disk won't fit in my gamecube... Maybe if I cut the sides off....

Wii sports wont fit on your Gamecube because you did not drop $250 bones for the 1.5 minimal upgrade.

You must be having somuch fun from your HD system to come and whine about the Wii all the time. Either that, or you are jealous that little Wii is kicking your little PS3 or 360a**around so you feel threatened enough to trot out the same excuses.

As makingthe thread starterbuy a Wii. Spend more time looking at the games that are out now or are coming out later this year and then make a decision. Either way I'm not telling you to buy it because its your own choice to make and SW is not the best place to get an informed opinion, this the trash heap of theGS forums.

Yeah that's why I played Resistance Fall of man ONLINE for about5 hours today. Also ive spent about 200 hours on Oblivion for PS3, name one game now available for the Wii that can give that replay value.

Notice i didn't even mention the graphics!

I've put a lot of time into Twilight Princess, fishing, completing the game 100% and doing the cave of ordeals.

Wii Sports and Warioware are hours of fun when you have family or friends to play with. Or does that not matter because they're minigames?

[QUOTE="ZebethOrZebes"]Stop listening to all the biased sheep, lemmings, and cows in this thread! I have my Wii, had it since day one, and have loved every minute of it. However, I am telling you now that the Wii is a waste of your time! Why won't you listen to me?!ZebethOrZebes

And what you saying your not a fanboy :?

you must be really speical than

he has to decide himself

there your already WRONG!
tc dont listen to him either



If you think I'm biased against Nintendo, you're dead wrong.


YOUR TELLING HIM TO DO SOMETHING! when in fact he needs to do the deciding factor himself.

and just beacuse you got a love link dosent mean your not biased. what makes you more speical than others in this thread :?



Because I know this guy's tastes, and I know they don't match up with what the Wii has to offer. Sure he expresses desire in playing Zelda and Metroid Prime 3, but I can tell you right now if he bought those games at the behest of the sheep in this thread, he would hold it against all Nintendo fans afterward.

I know, unlike most Nintendo fanboys, that Nintendo games aren't for everyone. This person is one of those people Nintendo is not for. I don't know why that's so hard to accept.

:lol: and i know that thats a bunch of BS

BEACUSE YOUR A TROLL!


I'm a troll? No, I'm obviously THE ONLY PERSON IN THIS THREAD that bothered to check this guy's profile to see what his tastes are. The only games he's bothered to register are Resistance, Gears of War, Oblivion, and MotorStorm, and the only game he's rated is Motor Storm. He gave it an 8.1. ANYONE who would give a AA score to MotorStorm would be dissatisfied with their Wii purchase, it's pretty straightforward.

He needs to make its my up BY HIMSELF!

thats the problem. So what if he wanted 8.1 so he could like the game. that dosent mean he wont like wii games either.

you dont say anything your just basisd

No, I'm just trying to keep him from wasting his money, and for a person like him, he'd be wasting his money. It wasn't a waste of money for me, but if I tried to apply my satisfaction with the system to his taste in games, it wouldn't match up. I don't know what it is that makes you think I'm biased.

Look, if he was confident in his own opinion about the system, he wouldn't have made a thread asking for advice! I'm just trying to give him advice tailored to his taste in games, and you're attacking me for it! What the hell is wrong with you?!
