Wii - $250

RE:UC, Nights 2, No More Heroes, Super Mario Galaxy, FFCC:The Crystal Bearers, and SSBB - $300

2000 Wii points + Classic Controller - $40

Extra Wiimote + Nunchuck - $60

= $650

OR

PS3 - $600

MGS4 - $60

= $660

What would you choose?

That's actually a hard choice for me. I like MSG and all, but 2000 wii points is yummy and so are 3 of the 5 games you listed (so I save $60, so it's actually $600)

[QUOTE="Nintendo_Man"]

So we should listen to someone who spent $600 on a console which has no AAA exclusive?

And the Wii does? HA!

[QUOTE="iunderstand"]Tons would agree with you because the majority of the people who hate on the Wii are overweight.rykaziel

You can just as easily play the Wii while sitting down.

 

Heaven forbid people actually like depth in their games, and not "waggle" controls. Shaking the controller up and down instead of hitting a button is not innovation. It's crap.

It's control-based immersion. 

Two ENTIRELY different things ;)

[QUOTE="monsternachoman"][QUOTE="88Ghost89"][QUOTE="monsternachoman"]

[QUOTE="Hoffgod"][QUOTE="monsternachoman"]Why in the heck is Nintendo selling the Wii for $250.88Ghost89

Because the Wii costs about $160 to manufacture, then add in costs for the controller and nunchuck, shipping, profit for Nintendo, and profit for retailers, it comes out to a nice, even $250. Simple answer for a simple question.

then they should be selling the Wii for $169.99

"...then add in costs for the controller and nunchuck, shipping, profit for Nintendo, and profit for retailers, it comes out to a nice, even $250." ~ Hoffgod

I don't see anything wrong with the price, plus most Wii games are 10 cheaper, which makes your Wii purchases even cheaper.

Oh well buy them nobody is gonna stop you from ripping yourself off.

Don't even start with that rip off junk. The other consoles do an excellent job of ripping you off. Everything in video games rips you off, and IMO Nintendo rips you off less.

That's not strictly true. Microsoft and Sony are selling at a loss on hardware while Nintendo is selling for a good profit.

I think developers need to work on mirroring real-world specular better.

Are those actual screenshots, or a developer build?
