Gaming - Just sold my Wii - View Post

I wasn't using it at all and figured it would go into good hands somewhere. I'll buy another one down the road but I'm a very impatient gamer; if a system doesn't have a bunch of games I want to play now, it sits and collects dust. Nothing against the Wii, but there's not a lot I want to play on it and the 360 will keep my appetite satiated through the holidays. I figure I'll buy a new Wii sometime early next year, hopefully when they offer new colors.

BTW, how much does it rock that I bought a Wii 7 months ago, played the crap out of it for awhile, and then sold it for $70 less than I paid for it? That's essentially renting a console for $10/month. Kick ass.

So, let's share a moment of silence for the passing of Rocketpig's Wii. Oh, and please don't flame this f***ing thread. The Wii is a great system, just not enough games for me right now. Thank you for your time.

I'm surprised you didn't get your full price back from it.  And I'm also surprised you didn't save it for Super Mario Galaxy, SSBB, or Metroid Prime 3 (if you were looking forward to any of them).

ps. I really wish I would have done the same thing though with the Gamecube considering I'm currently using it in it's orginal box as a footrest right now.  I should have sold it immediately after beating the mercenaries games in RE:4, I probably could have gotten $80-$100 for it.  Of course all might not be lost if I can ever find Eternal Darkness for it.
