To Wii or not to Wii.

I made my mind a few months back about getting a Wii next christmass. I am playing my PS2 and my DS this days and they are keeping me happy and busy this days. I was intending to get a Wii on christmass but today I realised two things.

There are no Wiis to be found on the net. Amazon never has them in stock and the same happends any were else on the net. I live outside of the states but I have a P.O. box and I often buy things on websites. The thing is that where I live you can simply go out to any video game store and just get a Wii. You dont have to be friends to anyone and theres no need to be first in line to do it, in fact, I could go out right now and get a Wii if I really really wanted. The problem is that they sell it at almost double the price.

I decided that if I couldnt get one for 250 on the net I would get one anyway on christamass. But thinking about, if I did that I would have to pay almost the same ammount of money that an Elite X-box 360 costs. Thats just wrong. I wont pay 400 dollars for a Wii! I cant! I am a budget person, I allways get things when they are at a lower price... not the other way around! So that took the wind out of my Wii buying wings.

The second thing that brings me to not buying one yet is the fact that right now I have 3 PS2 and 3 DS games that I havent even started playing wating for me. Between Bully, FF:XII, Kingdom Hearts, Hotel Dusk, Phoenix Wright: AT TT and Puzzle Quest I think I have practically the rest of the year down. I dont need any more games... and I havent finished God Hand and GTA III (hopefully I'll finish one of those this weekend).

I really want one. I want to play Metroid Prime 3, Super Mario Galaxy, Wii sports, Twilight Princess (again), Fire Emblem, Battalion Wars and I want to get Guitar Hero III on the Wii too. But I guess I'll just wait until they can be bought at a normal retail price over the net to get one. At least Super Smash Bros. Brawl will be out by then... hopefully.
