Forums - Gaming - Should I get a Wii or 360?

Teoulas on 29 June 2008

Wii + Boom blox + other Wii games. You've already got a PS3 for the classic games, get a Wii for the quirky/party/innovative/different/call-em-whatever-you-want games.

What interests you more, 360 exclusives or Wii exclusives? What type of games do you like the most?

Explain the logic to me. Asking other people what you want? Plz make your own decision. You get a gaming console so that you can have fun on it. Look at the Wii and look at the 360, check their lineups, and make a decision. Otherwise we can't help you as it would only be our opinions.

Also, the 360 is if you really want JRPGs now. All systems will get them, but by the way things are going, the Wii will end up with the most, although the 360 may end up with more WRPGS. Both systems are about as likely to have a major price drop, and both systems have a growing library of budget games. The 360 is slightly more likely IMO to come out with a new slim model than a better model of the wii. It's so close, I suggest you wait until he end of E3 to decide just in case something exclusive is announced that may change your mind one way or the other.  Personally, I recommend Wii over, especially if you already have a PS3.

Why would you think the Wii is going to get more JRPGs? Im not sure if it even has more than 5 right now. I could be wrong but I dont know any RPG for the Wii. Minus the Tale and some other kiddy rpg.

Because if you look at the front page the wii has about 12 times the install base in japan than the 360, and 3 times that of the ps3. Now developers have two choices. Get money from microsoft to make games,which can't last forever, or make more money on another console that has a far larger userbase and more potential customers.

Mostly every game for 360 is on PS3 so youre not missing out. You dont have to pay for online on PS3 another plus. If you like RPGs just wait PS3 will get some.

RPGs for the Wii include:

-FE: Radiant Dawn
-Arc Rise Fantasia
-FFCC: The Crystal Bearers
-Fragile
-Rune Factory Frontier
-Chocobo's Mysterious Dungeon
-DQ Swords
-(Sort of) Monster Hunter 3

Plus others that we have no information on such as moon peak and the camelot rpg.
But there's others I'm sure I missed...

Well my fanboyism makes me want to say 360, but

You should prob get wii since you have PS3 already.


The only reason i'd recommend a 360 is if your a Halo Whore or a Gears of War fan.

I meant straight up RPGs not SRPG.(FE)

All the others have RPG elements but are no way in hell REALL RPGS.

Never heard of RFR.
