Believe it or not, YES.
The Wii was what I wanted when I got it.
The controls on games make it 2x as interesting. It makes some games more fun, especially Wii Sports games and Mario Kart Wii. It makes some games a pain in the ass though with the Wii Remote, but that is usually resolved by using the Gamecube controller.
The online features are awesome, especially in games. Now that I can play Mario Kart online, I won't run out of things to do. The internet is useful if you want some cheats but don't want to have to turn on your computer, and it is also good to watch Youtube videos with your friends. I don't use the weather channel or the news though, I have NBC for that.
The Mii's also make playing wii more enjoyable. I love making Mii versions of video game characters, cartoon characters, and people as best as I can and then submit them to the Check Mii Out channel. They are fun to make and even look at. I always love it when I see Steve Urkel's face on the wall in Coconut Mall.
Last but not least, VIRTUAL CONSOLE. This completes my life. I never get bored of old video games, and I can play them whenever I want. All I am waiting for is Earthbound, then I will be COMPLETELY satisfied.
Basically, it lived up to my expectations, and it satisfies me. Of course the Wii 2 will be even better, but for now, the Wii is perfect.
