the word upgrade is used to fool them in trading in their Wii


It *IS* an upgrade.  They're offering people who made the mistake of buying a console made for children the option of buying a grown up console that does a ton more while still offering tons of content for children.

Other than a few rehashed a million billion times kiddy games, Nintendo doesn't actually offer much for adults.


sigh...

Don't get me wrong, the Wii is a cute toy with cutesy children's games and fit nicely in certain situations however you cannot deny that a PS3 or 360 brings WAY more to the table.  Media Sharing is HUGE and getting bigger by the day now. 

The point i'm trying to make is that they're offering the deal because people want to take the deal.  They're not doing it just for the kindness of their hearts.  A local store took a fair number of returns of WII's this boxing day being traded in for Kinect bundles.  How do I know?  While I was getting my new Samsung 3D 54" tv for $800 off(fweeeeee), I sat beside the returns desk and watched 5 people do returns.  It's possible we might need to adjust WII down and PS3/360 up.

If I was a kid, i'd sure want the latest and greatest technology along with a way to stream my Divx's to my TV. ;)
