Should I sell my wii to fund a DS purchase

Right now, my PS3 is getting all my game time. My wii has been colleting dust for MONTHS, occasionally being turned on to make sure my brawl skills are intact, then turned back off for another few months. I'm unemployed, no money, and spent a month trying to find a job, and so I'm desperate. I been itching to get my hands on pokemon platinum and in the near future, scribblenauts, so I'm thinking of selling my wii to fund a DS.

The problem here is that I have quite a bit of sentimental value attached to my wii (LOL, keep it clean) because of the memories i have of waiting in line for it in the freezing cold and snow for 12 hours with some amazing people. Also, I dont want my brawl skills to rust(also, i have no desire to get any currently announced future wii games). I'm torn. I realllly want to get my hands on a DS, and it seems the only option is to sell my wii.

Opinions plx?

the wii :lol:. id trade a wii for an atari lynx.

I would sell my Wii for another PSP to sit around, can't tho since its the family's :cry: I've been forbidden to even think about it! It hurts!

Selling consoles is the smartest thing in the world. Its not like we're still in the middle of this gens life-cycle, and more games that will possibly interest you will come out.Thunderdrone

If nothing in the 2010 lineup interests you, you waited all that time in the cold for the wrong console:P

DS has some really good games, if the Wii ones don't interest you, go for it. Platinum is pretty good, and GTA:CTW is awesome.

Do whatever you like. I'm not really interested in handing over advise to someone who is asking a fanboy forum for its opinion on their own purchase.

if you're unemployed and have no money i'd forget about gaming and get yourself a job first.

well, it depends on if there's any wii games you want to play. I don't own a wii (kind of wish I did for the newer games) but I do own a DS. DS is by far the best handheld I've ever owned and it has some of the best games!

wii does have the new metroid

no more heroes

monster hunter

muramasa: demon blade

so it depends on if you like those kind of games. I'd personally just save up for the DS and keep the wii. I find that when I sell items for other items, I usually end up dissatisfied.

I don't know why anyone would want to sell any console. Unless you're going to make money off the selling... if not, why?Stevo_the_gamer

Wii is for little girls, housewives, and toddlers.

Handhelds are for spoiled children who want to win an award for best shown in show & tell on Friday's.

If you aren't either of those then your screwed either way

Wow, you're just racking up on horrible posts.

Anyways, I suggest getting the DS.. If you're not using the Wii you might as well sell it, the DS has a great library also.

seriously what are the future AAA wii titles LOL
