Long term opinions on Wii wanted.

[Josh-H]

Ok so I'm back in the predicament of ... to have a wii or not... I want to know what people who OWN them and have done for a while think of them. Does the gimmick wear off? Does it have lasting appeal? What games do you recommend?

[mangle]

Not got one but Red Steel looks good :]

[emobusters]

yeah, it wears off. i hardly play on mine anymore, but then again that could be because of lack of money to buy games.

[Homesrfan]

I wouldn't exactly say the controls where off, but lackluster games make them a bit boring.
But in June, great titles will start coming out. Basically Q3 and Q4 will be an AWESOME time to have a Wii.

GTA 4 is also coming out on Wii, but it doesn't look anywhere near as good as on other consoles.

I don't know why but I find that impossible to believe :S

Nintendo is a family company I'd doubt they'd have an prision escapé running around New york shooting people and blowing up houses.

I'm getting an Xbox in around 50 day's for GTA anyway.

I have the Wii and there's not much to offer atm but in Q3-Q4 tonnes of smash things comming out

Did I say smash SUPER SMASH BROS BRAWL , Online play IS GOING TO BE BRILLIANT , PAPER MARIO , MARIO GALAXY , METROID , MARIO STRIKERS , DK CONGA BEAT

[GommeInc]

I've completed alot of games and the lack of cool games out at the moment has made it a bit boring. I go on for the Voting Channel and News now, sometimes weather. But other than that, it is ok. Just need more games and more Wiis in stock so friends can buy them!

[brandon]

personally I wouldn't get one because I don't like games on the Wii arnt really my style and I would find it difficult to control it with the remote (yes I know you can get the old style controller) but yeah the only thing that interests me on the Wii is WiiSports and the novelty would wear off..

[kk.]

it is good but i dont play on mine atm because its in my living room as i dont have a big enough TV in my room for it to be good. But when it is in their i will play on it :)

i say get one even if the lack of games because by the time you have one it will be july lol

[Neversoft]

Got mine the day it came out, to be honest I haven't played on it much lately because of the lack of games. But when Super Smash Bros. Brawl comes out you'll never see me again. It really is a great console though. :)

Have you ever played a Wii? ;) It really isnt that hard to control at all, even with the remote.

[yido]

All Good Just Waitng For Goldeneye to come out on retro shop channel
only zelda and mario atm -.- every friday either mega drive or snes out lol

[Josh-H]

Ah well a lot of you have confirmed what I thought. It does get boring.

And the lack of games to me... won't be affected by mario. As those types of games don't really interest me anymore. Only games I would really like are Wario Ware + Wii Sports ... So I don't think its worth it really.

[Oni]

The 'novelty' doesnt wear off atall and there are some decent games out atm [Loz, Ssx blur etc] but I agree that it wont really start going to Q2-Q3

[Wootzeh]

I don't know why but I find that impossible to believe :S
Haha, nevermind I got fooled, dam gta4.net :(

it isn't? I've only played on WiiSports on one so I'm just assuming.

[Tord]

I think the Wii is great. But it's better to play on Wii sports with friends, also zelda is a great game to play on the Wii.
I think it's worth buying onwhen you have seen all the games coming out for it.:D
