Forums - Nintendo - Finally bought a Wii game (S) since Mario Kart Wii

Huh, been some time actualy. I bought Resident Evil: The Umbrella Chronicles sometime in March or April. I have The Conduit preordered, so it should be here soon.

My latest purchase was Super smash bros. brawl.

Unless you count VC then it would be super metroid.



Mine was the Conduit.

I still dont understand why you dont think Wii games are worth full price. Most of the times you say you wont buy a Wii game at full price.

For whatever reason you think Muramasa isnt worth it.

I can only speak for myself, but SMG and Twilight Princess were the only 2 Wii games I've bought/played that were even remotely worth full price.

On topic, my last purchase was Punch Out, which I paid full price for and, in retrospect, should have waited until it was $15.



The last two games I bought were Boom Blox Bash Party and The Conduit. Can't speak for The Conduit since it's still on its way, but Boom Blox Bash Party is worth more than its full price.

Muramasa is $49.99, thats fucking expensive, even Odin's Sphere was $39.99 when it hit stores. Besides the smart thing for a consumer in this economic crisis is to wait till games drop in price. Muramasa is my most anticipated Wii game, but i'm not gonna throw my money that fast, Wii games tend to drop in price real fast.

actually, wii games drop the slowest on average, but that doesn't really matter as the difference is pennies. However you still haven't answer the question why only wii games. Obviously you'll buy X360 games sooner. Just admit that you despise the wii and love to be able to post in any Nintendo thread that the game isn't worth it and that you won't buy it at full price and haven't bought a game since MKWii. I'm shocked you even admitted that you bought a game. Honestly those are the only type of posts you make that I remember any more since that is all I see.

As for the question? Punch-Out!! at launch for $35 brand new. Actually, wait I got EA Sports Active, and Tiger Woods PGA Tour 10 too.

EDIT: my source to back up my claim - www.videogamepricecharts.com - you can find an article in there backing up my claims if you care to dig through all the old blog posts.




If you drop a PS3 right on top of a Wii, it would definitely defeat it. Not so sure about the Xbox360. - mancandy

But you got Stranglehold at 50$ right?



My last Wii game was Punch Out. Im going to buy few 360 games now for cheap and probably buy Tiger Woods soon.



From May until now, these are the Nintendo products I've purchased: Excitebots, Boom Blox Bash Party, Punch Out, Wii Speak, Tiger Woods 10 w/ M+, The Conduit and another M+.
