I am to cool for the Wii. its just the thought of me playing it and my granny bursting in my room and asking for a go, na man just that thought alone puts me off getting a Wii never mind the fact that the graphics are #@$@

As a rule whenever somebody starts with "I am to cool for..." it's a dead giveaway they are not cool, not at all.

You know that negative stereotype of gamers being "geeks and otaku" who sit in their mom's dimly lit basement playing video games all day long?  You're attitude isn't helping change that at all.  If we ever want gaming to be taken seriously it needs to expand past the core it has and gain mainstream acceptance.  Sony helped out with the PS and PS2 and now the Wii is continuing the market expansion. 

Just because your grandma enjoys bowling in Wii Sports doesn't mean you can't have fun in games catered to you.  I hate the TV shows my grandma watches but that doesn't put me off of television.  Why should it be any different with video games?

I used to have a Wii but unfortunately GTA killed my Wii.

beat me to it



im surprised no one used the "my friends wii collects dust" excuse



I'm 26 years old!Isn't that a good reason?I'm kidding though i believe Wii appeals to a much younger audience or not hardcore gamers!What i mean with that?I grew up playing video games!After all those years i prefer games with depth and technically advanced!I've learned to have great expectations from a game or console!So,this generation i ended up with a 360,which is the closest console to my needs.On the other hand,my older brother who plays occassionally wanted a console to spend a little of his time with his girlfriend and so he chose a Wii..This is just an example of what type of people buy each console. Here's the list of games i have and what my bro bought so far:

Me(360):Halo3,GOW,Lost Odyssey,Oblivion,NBA2K7,Pro 2008,Splinter Cell:DA,Mass Effect,Dead Rising,GTA 4.

Bro(Wii):Asterix at the Olympic Games,Wii Sports.

Got it now?

I'm waiting for it to be under 150€, then I'll see if there are enough games I could like and that take advantage from Wii's controlers.
Also, I have a lot of PC games, and want to buy others too, that I haven't even started yet, my spare time for gaming isn't infinite.
