first of all i want to clarify that i am talking about at the time (im pretty sure you already knew that). right now, gamecube games have skyrocketed so it is even more expensive to game on that than the current wii u. right now, it is the best time to get wii games because im sure it will be like the gamecube in that the games will skyrocket in five years time. i also believe once the wii u has been dead for five years, you will see many games be 60 to 70 dollars a piece.
that being said, at the time, you could have always got the excitebots and excite truck games for cheap, and nintendo came out with the nintendo selects (in 2010 i believe) where their most popular games were discounted to 20 dollars. the big thing about the wii though is that it had a lot of great third party games for cheap. de blob, boom blox, muramasa, mad world, no more heroes 1 and 2, red steel 2, i could go on and on. there was a lot more to buy a wii for than just nintendo games. so if the OP were making this thread about the wii in 2009 or 2010, it is way different than making this thread about the wii u in 2015. its just different. (sadly :/) with gamecube, all the nintendo games retained their value, but they did have players choice relatively early in the life cycle if im not mistaken where they discounted the games.
