I considered buying a GameCube, because they were selling used, like $29.99 at my local game dealer.
Plenty of games and accessories in stock too.
I was buying the system for my kids, and so they would have loved it anyway, they don't know any different.
But, in the end I bought a Wii, and I'm glad I did, the whole family loves it, then grandparents came, and I wanted them to play along, so I got Wii Play to go along with the packin, Wii Sports...and then they also wanted to buy the kids a present, and they got Super Mario Galaxy and High School Musical, Sing it.
Plus I bought it used, so it came with Call of Duty 3, NFL 2007, and Red Steel... (of these 3, we play them NEVER).
So...we ended up having quite the library, and the whole family plays the thing...great value, very pleased.
If I had my druthers...cost no object...to be frank I would have bought a PS3...I cannot ignore it has a blu-ray player and the highest end hardware.
