Poll: Should I sell my Nintendo Wii?

[zagazsano]

After I bought COD WaW for Wii, it really did disappoint me. I spent $50 (same price for the other systems I believe) and yet it really didn't give me the same amount of content as the other systems. That convinced me that the Wii wasn't really my type. Should I sell my Wii and buy a Xbox or PS3? Or just keep it and see if a good game comes out later?

Wii Processer = Gamecube processer, ditch the gamecube dressing up as a white PS2 and get a PS3 because of the free online and lack of red rings.

I've been considering selling mine too, but I just know I never can- as soon as I would, I know I'd want to play Zelda or SSBB again.

However, if you're into games like CoD, I can suggest selling your Wii, because you aren't going to find many quality games like that.

Now.. I have an XBox 360.. But I'm torn between both Xbox and PS3. What are some games you'd like that are exclusives? And what kind of games are you into? Is online gaming important?

I'm also thinking about selling my Wii, and I own all three consoles.

The 360 is definitely better than the PS3.

If you can, buy the Elite version for the 120 GB hard drive and HDMI port.

Buy a xbox 360... but it's up to you, just check for what you want in a system and they you should soon find which one you want. But personally... I don't like the WII but just ask yourself, will you miss it? Then the answer is clear if you say yes.

Sell it and upgrade your computer.
Computer > ALL.

Okay, I must know: Sir Madam, who the fuck is that classy gentleman in your avatar? It's driving me crazy.

This. There is no manlier way to game then with a system you put together with your own two hands.

paying for online gameplay means that you get more DLC, which the PS3 lacks compaired to the Xbox 360.

also play Madworld at least once before you sell your Wii (if you go through with it that is)

 

[Ace of Spades]

Yes, sell it and get a PS3. That's my console of choice, and it's what I recommend to people. Big, dependable, and some great exclusives.

Tis Alan Wake, photoshopped into the higher class.

DLC is why the Playstation Store is there, 1.50$ for a DLC isn't much and in the long run saves money cause you wont spend 50$ on DLC in a year and most DLC packs are released for free on the PS3.

 

[kokirisoldier]

I'm sorry to to say this. But I own both an Xbox 360 and the Wii and I hardly touch the Wii. I guess its novelty has worn off. It was really fun swinging it around, and beating it off in mini games and quick time events(which I got laughed at for being soo good at). But now...well I guess I just want to kill things, or explore huge non linear maps, Game on line fast and efficiently. Also kill more things.

 

[irishstormtrooper]

Absolutely. The Wii has maybe two good games for it (Trust someone whose friends are Wiitards).

Unless you manage to play a game on a live bear whilst wearing a top hat.

Or one tha looks like this

or this

If these were released as custom casings for the Ps3, I'd get them in a heartbeat.

Good luck using the controller in the first one.

Take a look at the games. I mean really look, don't browse EB and notice the shovelware, do some homework on the Wii's library. There are plenty of excellent games out there if you bother to look.
If, after looking at the games, you still want to sell it, go ahead.

 

[maddawg IAJI]

As an owner of both Xbox and Wii i have to say yes. While the Wii was good for a moment it has grown stale. I would recomend xbox becuase of the larger community and variety in games.

 

[ManiacalZManiac]

My Wii has gotten so messed up it takes near 15 minutes to do damn near anything. 0_o
