Pay me 250 I sell it to you.

Seriously, I know Wii is garbage even before I bought it, the reason I still "get it" is that I collect systems, I got all consoles since 1985.

My advise to you use get a PS3. Think of it, You will get a Blu-Ray Player, Media server, and one of the best console.

[citation][nom]underapew[/nom]If you have the money get all 3 consoles - if ya only have $200, get a refurbed 360 - most bang 4 your buck.My thoughts[/citation]

Huh? Spend $200 on a refurb OLD-most likely will DIE, limited warranty 360? Thats the best way to waste $200!

$300 gets a new Xbox... but $300 for a PS3 is a better deal.

A Wii at 199.99 is a bargin if your a kid who likes kiddy games like MArio Brothers. They had a great idea with the motion controller but the companys that signed up for producing games droped the ball big time. Now that both PS3 and 360 will have motion by next year the Wii seems useless at this point. It had it's run, but i think it's aabout over for the chump.

As some one who is a PC/Wii/PS3 owner I can offer a valid opinion.... I enjoy all that I have in different ways. There are some great games for the Wii but only if you know what kind of games you like. If your a graphics ho stay away. PS3 is great for a couple of games and media playback from hell (it can play almost anything on a disk aside from a few obscure formats.) On the PC side of things its all about FPS and RTS and RPG's for me. Wii for Puzzles and some action games.
