No, not the Wii U. I'm actually buying the original wii this week from this girl on craigslist. Only $60 and she's guaranteed to it me. No games or controllers but that'll come in time. Reason I'm finally getting one is because there are a lot of games I never got to play. Don't start with me on brawl (at least 1000 hours logged into that game with friends). I can't play that anymore or I'll get addicted again lol. So anybody wanna recommend me some games???

Im planning on immediatley getting galaxy 1/2, as well as LoZ TP and Skyward sword. Looking for "core" games. Sadly I'm not interested in wii fit or Mario kart :p

Should be a great experience and change up to my ps3 gaming for a bit. (Although ni no Kuni is amazing right now)

i have no interest in the Wii U; as in my opinion the games just suck compared to what the ps3 and soon to be next gens offers me...

Which genres are you interested in?

The poor graphics quality of Wii games v ps3 will be noticeable to you and a distraction that will put you off soon

You're getting robbed man, don't buy it because she's a girl.

haha your getting ripped off!

To those saying I got ripped off: I just bought a wiimote, nunchuck and 2 GameCube controllers from my friend all for $20 (he's selling stuff for ps4) so don't underestimate my financial savy.

To those saying just buy a wii u: I already have a ps3 and soon to be ps4, so with a wii that's plenty of games of spending for me. I'm in the military so I really don't have time for any of these anyway hah. Plus you act like since I'm willing to spend $60 on a console that I'm somehow willing to spend $350 on one lol.

To those suggesting last story and xenoblade: THANKS. Heard raving things about those two. I'm actually mad hyped to play them.

Also might get some GameCube games I missed when I had one.

Uhh... WiiU's cost 300$ comes with an HDMI cable and a game.

The Wii games look better on it too.

Not everyone is a graphics whore.

Only because of said HDMI cable.

You can get pretty much the same result with the Wii Componet Cable.
