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

amp316 on 02 November 2008

If you want something different than your PS3 then get a Wii. If you want similar games then get the 360.

I took a quick look at your game library and I think you should buy a Wii. All first party games that you put in your favorite games + CoD5 and CoD6 will be on Wii. And I noticed that you already own a PS3 so the choice is not very difficult.

 

 cod6 will be on wii???? where did you hear that from. if its infinty ward it will be another modern warfare designed for pc,360,PS3. if  its a port made by someone else maybe.

still if you like the wii get it if you like the 360 get it,

 I love 4 player shooters splitscreen on a 50 in tv with 5.1sound  my Ps3 and 360 serve me well the wii is a work out machine for my wife with wiifit. if and when another good game hits it I might play it with its sub par graphics.

I really think this depends on your age. If you are over the age of 14 I would get the 360. Under the age get the Wii.

Look at the recent article of VG's top 10 wii games. For me (age 32) there is not one single game that would interest me. Only reason I have ever bought a nintendo console in the last 15 years is for Bond 64.

Now if you are an independent adult the 360's new dashboard will include instant streaming of over 12500 movies via netflix. This will also include game rentals and all the TV shows. Not to mention the best games library among the 3 consoles.

I really don't understand the appeal of the Wii unless you want to play 30 mario titles in the next year and countless of crap "party" games (samba di amigo are you fn serious, who purchases this crap?)



damn Iam 45 and couldnt agree more. lol TY FOR your post
