Forums - Nintendo - A Nintendo Wii At 250 Gives As Much Value As A 360 Elite/Ps3 At 300.

another way is to compare you collection of exclusives to your collection of multi platform games.

No Matter What, Microsoft Or Sony Were Not Able To Provide Me With A Game That I Had Been Waiting For For What Felt Like Millions Of Years. I Never Gave A Flying Monkey Innard About How Shiny The Graphics Were; It Was All About A Game I Wanted To Play.

..

Another Thing That Gives You An Insane Amount More Value Is That Fact Of You Can Download All The Old Metroids, Marios And Zeldas. On No Other System Can You Download Games That Take Up At Least Half Of The Top Ten Best Games Of All Times Lists. I Assure You That All These Lists Contain: Super Metroid, A Link To The Past, Mario World, Mario 64, Mario Bros, Mario 3, and Ocarina Of Time. Games That Can Only Be Found On Wii.

Here's the problem: I don't want to play Metroid. I don't want to play Mario. I don't want to play Zelda.

I want to play Halo, Mass Effect, Call of Duty, and Forza Motorsport. Last I checked, you can't play those on the Wii.

So This Was Just For Shits And Giggles Then?

Take a look at your post once again. Hows That For Values?


my god you really just had to push this hard didnt you? you pushed so hard that i dont even care about capitalizing my words anymore.

i was obviously referring to that dumbass technique you used. you said exactly what i said except you replaced 'shiny graphics' with 'motion controls.' this is what i was referring to the whole fucking time. it didnt illustrate any point. the first half of your post did, but the second was you just being 'witty' and 'clever'

i personally hated that zelda

i do like the wii tho big time, im playin it right now (on pause)

but eyh i just like all the systems, they all have their games



Last year's game of the year turned out to be Silent Hill : Shattered Memories (online GOTY was COD 6).  This year's GOTY leader to me is Heavy Rain.

And If Somebody Did Want To Play Metroid, Mario, Or The Zeldas, But Not Halo, Would You Then Say That The Wii Is A Better Value Than The 360?

You Completely Avoided The Question. Can't You Just Flat Out Say That There Are Scenarios In Which The Wii Could Be A Better Value Than Either The Ps3 Or The 360?

What is your definition of "value?" Dollars spent per game? In that case, you might want to check out the iPod touch. There are hundreds of games for only $0.99 a pop, and just as many free ones as well.

Does It Have Ocarina Of Time? Thought Not. Less Value.

Every Single Wii And Ps3 Game I Own Is Exclusive. The Only Console That Has Multiplats Is 360.
