All I need is the Wii.
And I'm thinking of adding it to my collection.
Although I don't know if it'll be worth it..

O.O TRUST MII (puns :B). It's worth it! It comes with Wii Sports and has a weather thing and picture downlaoding and even the news! It has Check Mii Out, Wii Shopping Channel, and more! :PPPP (Shopping...You can buy internet! Pokemon Snap, and much more! :O )

I've had the Wii since it came out, and I've been a Nintendo fanboy for years, and I can still say, that in my personal opinion, the Wii is not worth it.

So, it has the News Channel, Weather Channel. Internet Channel. No one (Shouldn't, anyway.) buys a gaming system just for stuff like that.

I have about 12 games for my Wii. Wii Sports bored me within a week.

IMO, the only games (1st party) worth it are:

Zelda: TP
Corruption
Galaxy
Pokemon battle Rev (If you're a Pokemon fan...and have 50 dollars to waste.)
Super paper mario

Ya. The Wii's game selection, so far, sucks.

Oh, you're probably wondering (and, undoubtly, flipping) why I didn't put Brawl in my list. Well, I don't judge games by screenshots and videos. I don't judge a game until I play it, a book until I read it, a movie until I watch it....you get it by now.

This is my opinion, but overall, the Wii is not worth it if you have other things in mind to buy.

I don't wanna "urk" you Nintendo fans, but I prefer my Xbox 360.

Online is uber, game selection is uber, and I'm not usually crazy about graphics, but they're really good too.

It's rebuttal time!

First off, a fatal flaw in your argument is "1st party only." Why first-party only? Does third-party have AIDS or something? Third-party may not be terrifically strong on Wii, but don't neglect it. The 360 relies on third-party and Halo. Admit it :P

Wii Sports lasted me for quite a while. I got pro in every sport, and even got past a skill level of 3,000 in boxing. Once you get to the champs in Baseball/Tennis, it'll offer you quite a challenge.

I only have four Wii games, and yet I use my Wii every day. The Internet Channel is a great addition, and I use it to check the Dojo updates in the morning. It's a great, functional browser that has a great bootup time.

You forgot another fundamental strength of the Wii: Virtual Console. I have four N64 games on my Wii (Star Fox 64, Paper Mario, Mario Kart 64, and Pokemon Snap). That adds a lot of value to the Wii. I got a 20-hour adventure out of Paper Mario for $10 (as opposed to a 20-hour, $50 Wii game). You can probably get a lot out of $5 NES games, too (Super Mario Bros. anyone?). I think VC is a great addition to the Wii.

Yes, the 360 has great online, but paying for it is a downside. I think Medal of Honor: Heroes 2's 32-person multiplayer sessions are a great first step for the Wii. Remember, this is Nintendo's first console-go at online. Give them a chance.

Overall, I think the Wii is worth the $250, and will become even more worth it throughout 2008. It's got some great games ahead in the future, and I think it's going to continue to succeed. Remember, the 360 has a better library partially because it had a year's headstart.

I didn't list 3rd Party because I was focusing on the 1st party games. They still pwn.

Xbox 360 doesn't rely on Halo, that's un true. Xbox 360 was out for 2 years without Halo 3 and sold like a dream. Paying isn't that big of a downside, only $50.00 a year. If someone can't come up with that, that's sad.

Nintendo's Online started with the DS and sucked. But that was hand-held. I am giving the Wii a chance. And that is Brawl. If Brawl's online sucks, then I'll cry. XD :P

I forgot about Virtual Console. Good point, my friend. lul;

Nice points there, and no offense with anything I said. I'm still a Wii fan, Nintendo fan. I wouldn't sell my Wii for anything.

Um, well, maybe not. But probably not.

Well, I said third-party and Halo. (Microsoft basically has no first-party games to speak of). And remember, the Wii "only has some good 1st party games", and it sold like an even BIGGER dream.

And $50=another game. Or 5 CDs. Or 3-5 DVDs. $50 is a good chunk of cash.
