I have a Wii and am very unhappy with it. Right now it sits there gathering up dust. I want a console I will actually play; I dont want my money to be sitting there all dusty, as the Wii is now. I already have a PS3. So would you say I should sell the Wii and get a 360 Arcade? I want a Pro, but Arcade is cheaper and I dont have that much money, but I may can see. Who thinks I should sell the Wii for a 360 Arcade or Pro (please specify). Or do I need to keep the Wii?

I'd say get a pro, although the arcade isn't a bad choice. That being said, you really will want to get a HDD either way. Avoid the Elite though- 60 GB is more than enough.

Anything's better than a Wii, but i don't think you should sell it. think you lose in the end if you do.

Sell it in the local paper and you could probably get more than what you paid for it. All consoles sell really well around the holidays and usually sell out. Hold out a couple of weeks and that will almost be a certainty.

You might be able to get an Arcade and get a refurbished (I believe this is the link) 20GB hard drive from Microsoft, I would recommend a pro over this but if you don't necessarily have the money you might want to try this.

Keep your Wii- Xbox is overrated. There's nothing on Xbox that isn't better on PC (only exception being NHL 09).

DO NOT BUY THAT GARBAGE ARCADE 360. Get the superior Pro. Trust me.. you will regret it so much later if you get the arcade.

sell your wii on ebay, as they are getting very high values, so you can recover what you paid for it. As for getting a 360, don't do it. You already have a PS3... so there really isn't anything new to see on the 360 other than Halo and Gears.

I'm sure the person decided because he has found games to justify his purchase. For me, I'm not gonna waste money on a 360 to play 2 games. But that's just me.

It sounds like get a Pro is the best answer so far.

Dude, I am you. This past sunday I bought a 360 with money I will get for selling my Wii and I already have a PS3. Get the Pro, it is worth the extra cash for the hard drive, the headset and certain bundles. I bought a 60 GB at Sam's Club and got $20 off Fable II (the deal was $20 off any one 360 title, I went with Fable II). The Pro is way worth the money, with the arcade you would still need to get a hard drive or something.

Lol. Thanks for your input. Sounds like I may be getting a pro. And I was planning on getting it at SAM's Club too.:P

The deal was only for those two days, but in general Sam's Club is cheaper, takes away the tax. The 60 GB Pro bundle comes with Kung Fu Panda and Lego Indiana Jones, which kind of sucks, but I'm not going to complain. You have to get Fable II. My gamertag is McKillagan, add me when you get a 360 we'll play some Fable II.
