Smart Move or Bad Move?

Tonight, I'm packing up my three week old Nintendo Wii with one wiimote and nunchuck, a classic controller, 4 virtual console games, Raymen Raving Rabbids 2 and Super Mario Galaxy.

Tomorrow, my boss is trading me her X-Box 360 (a little under a year old) for my Wii (haha, she wants my Wii), with two controllers and a couple games (mostly racing from what she told me, nothing I can't trade in for something better like uh, Fable 2).

I was planning on buying an X-Box 360 and my boss said she was planning on selling her xbox 360 and getting a Wii. I haven't been too impressed with the Wii. Okay, the controllers are kinda cool, but there's really nothing game-wise that interests me on the Wii. So, to me, it seems like a fair trade. I want a 360 and wouldn't miss my Wii too much, she wants a Wii and wouldn't miss her 360 too much. Then again, my system is newer then hers and there's no chance of getting the red ring of death on the Wii.

Mod edit - Sorry, but mentioning several platforms in a single thread isn't allowed in any of the platform boards, this should be in System Wars.

whats the point of this thread? write in your blog... and this thread doesn't even belong here.mfp16

Clearly you didn't read the title, as he was asking us a question...

On topic, i think it's a great move for you as the xbox as a huge library. You should pick up some of the older games if you see them cheap...

i think it is a great deal. u can trust ur boss not scamming with anything since it is ur boss. i have to say it is great thing.

my friend has a wii and 360 probily hasn't touched his wii since he got it.

And here is the thing about used XBOX they could RROD on you anytime.4dry4n

That's one of my main concerns, although from my understanding it's rarer then people make it out to be.

I think it's a bad move man for a few reasons. The Wii costs more as of right now and you're also trading away more accessories than you're getting. You definitely went out of your way to purchase everthing and from what I understood about the 360 is it's probably the holiday bundle from last year with Forza 2 which isn't worth it. It came with two games and they can't be traded in so Fable 2 will have to come out of your pocket.Strife88

From my understanding, it's only the x-box arcade console that's cheaper then the Wii, which I don't think I'd go for and from my understanding, it's not the arcade console that I'm getting. I could be wrong there, but if I am, then I know that the price differences arent too far off.

Secondly, I'm almost positive that its not a "holiday bundle" mainly because I've seen the console at her last employee party.
