according to your profile you have 69 PS3 games.... if you had the wii just as long and only had 10 games, this means one thing:

-> you never even gave the Wii a chance.

I see you have tiger woods 2010.... on PS3, when the game was said all arround to be the best golf game ever in it's Wii iteration...more proof of my point.



Now you seem to have gotten plenty of good games, and there are still plenty to come, so I don't think you'll be missing the wii.

However, getting the move does sound stupid for you....but if you do and love it, you'll know that you're (unwillingly it seems) very biased in your tastes.

I see the point you are making, the PS3 is definitely the console I play most, which I admitted to in my opening statement. I hold no grudge against Nintendo as their products were part of my childhood and I have had wonderful moments with them, Wii included. I bought the blockbuster titles, had friends come over with their games. I used the console when I did not have any games to play on my PS3 or obviously got a new game for the Wii.

I am not sure whether or not I gave the console a chance, from my point of view I did, but ultimately I simply did not do the trick for me. Now, about your comment about the Move. I said that I would be purchasing it, but I do not know if it will be a better experience than the Wii (which does not mean that the Wii was a negative experience). If Move does not do the trick for me, it means that I am simply not made for montion control games or whatever you like to call them and I will probably sell it too.

What a great thread that I've seen about 5,782 times since 2007.

Good job!!!

Really? :( my bad, just wanted to share a personal experience with the community.

Yeah.  I get it.  I sold my Wii because it collects dust, did you?

Tell me why.  Do you think that it sucks too? 

I've seen these threads before. 

Anyway, have fun.

Well, I have been very polite and neurtal with my post and I never said that it "sucks" or that it is bad. It simply lost its appeal to me over time and I figured it would be better to sell it to someone who would actually use it. Simple and straight forward, other people might do the same with their PS3 or X360, to each their own.

If you're being honest, then I apologize.

It's just that I've seen way too many of these types of threads baiting people.

OT I think that it's a mistake since Nintendo has three games coming out this summer: SMG 2, Sin and Punishment, and Metroid: Other M.

No bait. No collusion. I am being 100% honest. I do not get pleasure of battling it out or spending time reading forums about people bashing each other over comments etc etc, I am sure you get my drift.

Nope, and I have no plans to ever sell it (unless it's to buy a different Wii color ;-p though I don't want to lose my VC/WW games).

The only console I would think about selling would be my PS3 as it gets the least game playtime from me. If it wasn't for watching blu ray movies, I probably would've gotten rid of it. I play my PS2 much more than my PS3.

Those are all being made by Nintendo themselves.  That's not counting 3rd party games.

How many first party games are coming out by Sony or Microsoft this summer, and how many of them have the status of Mario or Metroid?

I have thought about it, but everyone I played its social games with says no. None of them own one. I guess i'll keep it around for now. After playing PS3 and 360 for so long the visuals are not pleasing

There seems to be three constants in the universe; death, taxes, and snobby HD console gamers claiming they sold their Wii because it "collects dust." Seriously, if you can't find enough good games on Wii at this point, you simply aren't looking hard enough. Or else you are extremely picky when it comes to games. Plenty of great Wii games to keep the dust off your Wii.. I mean at $200 Wii is practically an impulse purchase at this point.

Yet so many people don't seem to mind pouring monthly fees into Xbox live, spending $600 on a console, $100 limited edition COD with night vision goggles, or forking out endless money on ripoff downloadable content.. But a $200 console from Nintendo? God forbid!

Wow, so with your newly earned $200 you can now buy a whopping 3 $60 HD games (with taxes) that you will probably get bored with anyway. Congratulations. -_-

Boggles the mind..

He kept it civil. He didn't say that he sold it because it "sucked", but because he lost interest.

Whatever happens, I hope he is happy with the transaction

I would have agreed with you for the most part. Till you said you were interested in Move. If you plan on buying Move then seriously I think your alittle hypocritical. Their is going to be far superior software supporting the Wiimote then the Move. I think with E3 2010 supposed to be the biggest year for Wii and 360 selling either platform is foolish.

However a new generation is almost upon us and you never know maybe you'll buy Nintendo's next console!
