Forums - Nintendo - Should i buy Wii?

It's good to have diversity, if the Wii line-up interests you then it's worth it. If it doesn't interest you then it's not worth it. I wouldn't worry about motion controls or graphics too much, look at the games. The good games have good graphics, the good games have good controls.

It's all about the games!

I'd say yes. It's the ideal second console. Some great exclusives and it's ideal to have when having friends and family around.

And if you're a football fan the Pro Evo on the Wii is worth buying a Wii for alone. It's the best football video game I've played, and at 38 years old I've played most of them. Once you get over the learning curve you won't want to play any other football game on any other console using dual analog sticks again. It really is that good.

And I have both a Wii and a PS3. :)



Buy one its just 199 you wont regret it. Especially if you dont want more PS3 games then its a good purchase MP is another Plus.

If it's is worth 199$ it depends on you.
Do you like Mario, Zelda, Metroid or the other big Nintedo's IPs? Do you like retrogames? Do you like the idea of motion controls, especially in Sports game? If he answer is yes probably it's worth your money.
If you're looking for FPS, racing or Fighter game probably you would be disappointed, even if you have Metroid, Mario Kart ( and Excite Truck/Bots) and SSBB...

If you've to buy one wait for the Black Limited Edition (210$ it seems).


i don 't like Link but i love Mario and some games that makes me want to buy Wii is Tales of Graces ,Dragon Quest X AND Super Mario Galaxy

In this case you have some games yet: SMG, SMG2, NSMBW, maybe also Paper Mario or Mario Kart...ToG will not come in the US until 2010/2011, so probably is not a good example. DQ X the same. If you like RPGs probably you'll enjoy FFCC:tCB (more an action but still an RPG) and Monado (2010). There are some games like Madworld, Little King's Story or The Conduit that didn't sell great but maybe you would like (i don't think you like just Mario and RPGs out of Wii's lineup).



CURRENTLY PLAYING: Xenoblade (Wii), Super mario 3D land (3DS), Guild Wars (PC)

you should get a DS or PSP, if you like JRPGs.

i thought you didn't have a PSP. DS have more JRPGs though. it will keep you intertained more than the Wii.



hmmm that depends... I do HAVE A PS3 (I dont know why it shows though) but I only brought it for little big planet which satified me!!! my parents doesn't let me by M games (so I guess I'm missing alot from it) but the wii offered so much to me! It depends on what you like though... are you hyped for nsmbwii since you do like galaxy... or wait for the black wii to come in.




              

one of my friend who has Wii has Super Mario Galaxy

it is really gorgeous and fun but still as some of you said having tales of graces and dragon quest 10 is not good example since they will realese in europe in 2011
so id on 't know should i wait until then or purchase a Wii now (and i don 't think i will have 200 euros by then since i will have spent all of them)

FF IV DS is pretty good, but it's not the best you can get... or a system seller IMO. Either way, the sum is worth more than its individual parts... meaning that the combined DS JRPG library is a good enough reason to get it... especially for you.

Be it a Wii or a DS, you can't go wrong with either one... especially after seeing Tales of Graces footage ;)



oh ... speak of the devil



if you like the above then go get a wii
