Forums - Nintendo - Buying a Wii this week (Sony fan)

You do realize that a Wii U can do almost everything a Wii can do, and more? Plus you get Wii U games out of the deal. You should just buy a Wii U.

Wait... why are you buying that? Once you buy a controller and nunchuck, you're at 120. The Wii retails brand new for 130 with Wii Sports and Wii Sports Resort. Seems like a crap deal.

Kinda does.  Here in Canada (I already own a Wii and a Wii U) I planned on buying Mario Kart Wii and a new controller.  I bought the Wii Mini that was bundled with Mario Kart Wii for $90.  That's how much the game and mote would have cost on their own, plus I got a nunchuk and a freakin console lol.  That  is a good deal.

Xenoblade, Metroid Prime Trilogy (this can be hard to find/expensive; buying the three Prime games separately is a viable alternative).



GET THE WII U FOR YOUR OWN SAKE. If you are open to buy a Wii then the Wii U will be a paradise for you. Really, the Wii U has more value than what the Wii came out. Sales seem to not tell that, but believe me I love the Wii U far more than the Wii.



Silen hill SM, Red steel2, FF CC The crystal bearers, Arc rise Fantasia NFS Nitro, Excitebots, Elebits, NMH 2 on top of the already mentioned
