Default Nintendo Wii

I went to my friend's house yesterday and played his Wii and I was just wondering if anyone had one and if you do have one how much did you pay for it and where did you get it? How do you like it? I loved it even though all I got to do was make my own mii person and bowl 2 games. But would you suggest me getting it?

cool because when I look on the Target web site it does not come up but thanks I found one at K-Mart for $250 and a big kit at Wal-Mart for $500. Right now if I do a crap load of work I'll be able to get it in about 2-3 weeks

The wii is awesome my friend has one and it is very fun to play
Bondo- what is up with you? You have been dissing alot of people. I didn't do one thing to you, and I closed that thread because it was only talking about the new 360 and it went in the discussion to the wii so that makes me a wannabe mod? Yeah I could see how it could talk about the PS3 as I talked a little about that too.

I had a wii. But a sold it on ebay for like $355. I have a PS3 now. I suggest you buy the wii. It is a nice system and can be very fun. The only problem I see, is that most games are a bunch of mini games put together. Now if you want hardcore gaming buy a PS3 or Xbox360.

Back ontopic: If you want some stupid fun, simple fun Ill add onto that, the wee is a fun thing for an afternoon of gaming. But its not a serious game system, with the exception of a couple of games. Its like the difference between Mario Party, and God of War.

mhhmm totally agree with everything in that post.
if you want a wii, save yourself some money and by a gameboy.
you get the same cheesey minigames, but cheaper and in a sleeker package.

I know, right? lol

Anyhoo, Wii is a fun thing, but IMO not a seriouse gaming monster. If thats what you want, then stick with it. But mind you, it might go the same plan as DS, which was offer some 'revolutionary' game plays, makes some games that used it poorly, then fall behind when Sony released something better. Sad, but rather true. I just dont thing Wee will last the same shelf life of PS3, or even the self destructive ex-box tree-city.

I guess the wii would be okay for passing time, but the downside is that you can't put it in your car and play on roadtrips, like normal systems.

Gameboy Micro and some WarioWare Games and you have a wii....

I've never played with a wii, but it sounds kinda funny when you say "I went over to my friend's house and played with his wii"....

it might be a bit "off topic" and might get this thread closed but for $500.00 i could think of sooooo many other things i would rather buy then a nontendo wii. yup, i said nontendo.
gaming platforms aside.....$500.00 would put new carpet and seats in my car.
or hell it could even be a down payment on a PS3/Xbox"elite"
500 bux is a helluvalot of money to throw at an inferior gaming system when there are better things to spend your money on.
nintendo could throw in 4 wireless controllers,3 top title games and a reg. nintendo with supermario/duckhunt combo + the gun. i still wouldnt pay $500.00 for it.

just my HOP though
cheers,
