You are exactly right there my friend... But I have yet to meet a person who liked the game using the Wiimote on smash. And MK-wii sucks without the Wheel.

I enjoy Brawl and Mario Kart with the wiimote+nunchuck. I'm quiet good in both games using them as well. I was actually disapppointed in myself for not being able to use the wiiwheel, though I have been practicing.
With the Wii continuing to come out with new 'attachments' And requires so much to play as well, are things getting out of control?
For a 'party' Wii system. (what it's for right?)
We will need to buy...
1x Wii - 249.99
3x Wiimote - 39.99*3= 119.97
3x Nun-chuck - 19.99*3= 59.97
429.93
That is what a Wii system will run you today. As things are starting to progress, we are losing our ability to keep downloaded stuff on our Wii? We are out of space, with old classic games! The new Wii-Ware is pushing the data so far beyond the hardware, it's not funny. Soon, we will be faced with 2 choices. 1. Start downloading only what we are playing, and second... well, spend 50-100$ for a external HDD.
When you add in the base entry requirements, then add in the new 'HDD' that we will be needing...
We are looking at a painful number, very close to 500$ to get the system completely built.
Then there is the annoying trend, of games needing, special 'attachments' MK-Wii is a good example. If you wanna play 4-way, you will probibally want to pick up another 3, 9.99$ Wii-Wheel. Also, alot of games, you need, or will want the 'classic' controller. Which in the event of Smash, you would want 4... As the Wii-mote SUCKS on that game. So you add on, your 4 'classic' controllers, at 14.95!
We are quickly comming up on 600$ just for hardware.
On regards to the 360. Let's go with this one. It comes with your 20gb HDD, and the wireless controller. As let's use the 360 for the same situation, and play party games on it, to 'favor' the Wii in this, as the wii is meant for it, the 360, is more of a 'one person per console' online system.
1x X-Box 360 - 349.99
3x wireless controller - 39.99
Ok, and as far as the 360 goes, that's all I can think of needing... just about ever. And that comes to 469.96$.That's about 100$ cheaper, than the Wii!!!
How much more is the Wii gonna get that is 'necessary' to play the games?! (I do not count Wii-fit, as it is specific for the one game, and it 'expands' the original concept of the machine, and is not 'useful' in anything but the one application.

Bold part - please don't try and tell us this is not flamebait. Don't insult our intelligence.
Also, if it's "only" a party system, the $250 comes with everything you need - Wii, Wiimote+Nunchuck, WiiSports. If you really need something else, WarioWare for $50 (might be cheaper by now), will allow you to use ONE Wiimote (that you already have), and allows up to 12 people to play. So for $300 you're set. Also, for $10 bucks more, you can get WiiPlay (another party game) and a Wiimote, and then get the second nunchuck for 20 bucks, so total is $370. Not bad.
