Forums - Gaming - Which gaming system do you regret buying?

The Wii and the Vita.



Around the Network

Nintendo Wii



   

If anything I'd have to say 3ds.

I bought it for smt: iv. Loved the game, not the system. Then let my buddy borrow it and he has had it since.



If I spend over $100 on a product, I like to make sure I'm truly interested in it before putting money down. I can't imagine just spending that much money on a whim. In the case of the game consoles, there has to be a healthy amount of games I can play on those systems.

Of my current systems, I picked up my PS3 at around $150 late in the life cycle, while my launch 3DS and Wii U were backwards compatible, so I was able to rationalize those purchases as an upgrade, rather simply buying a new system. So even though new games I wanted were scarce, I was able to keep working through my 7th gen backlog while handing off the old systems to family members. I just can't see myself purchasing a console in its first two years without BC....it seems to me like droughts are pretty much a given in those cases.

None, I have owned a lot of consoles and I have enjoyed them all.

Although I have had few games on some consoles due to lack of funds. I still enjoyed them greatly and often want to play them again.

If there was one it would have to be the PS Vita. I really like it, but I'm not sure if I use it enough to justify its purchase.



 Been away for a bit, but sneaking back in.

Gaming on: PS4, PC, 3DS. Got a Switch! Mainly to play Smash

I don't regret any of my hardware purchases over the years, but the one I've used the least is the GBA... only ever bought 3 games for it.

If I had bought a Wii U like I was originally going to last year I probably would have regretted that, because I was really disappointed after playing Mario Kart 8 at a buddies, and that's been the only notable release since last winter.

You know I was always wondering why no one ever used the dollar sign for $ony, but then I realized they have no money so it would be pointless.

None really, I make informed decisions about my gaming device purchases. I think I've gotten some of the least use out of my PSP--actually my Vita might be slightly less used but it's got a long life ahead of it--and I'm going to get an Xbox 360 again just for a couple games (lol) and then that'll be the least-used system.

But I won't regret it. I certainly hope not anyway.
