It is my professional opinion that Wii's are worth it.

Don't get defensive. I was merely asking; not assuming. And I was specifically referring to Brawl to clear things up with everyone else. It's quite a different playing game than the older ones; otherwise I wouldn't have brought it up. And I agree with Matt. I will be using the gamecube controller as well.

My brother bought the wii. Zelda twilight princess was probably my best investment besides gears last year.

i knew i had a soul mate <3





im kidding :D i agree though, 100%. and i know im gonna get DESTROYED about this, but i dont like twilight zone. it was good but not AMAZING i dont think its the best game for wii. It does have a lil amount of games.. but gamecube, sega, n64, super nintendo, and umm.... stuff. anyway, i think its worth it if you like nintendo. i always had that system around, and sega. so its jsut kinda... well theyre my main systems, and xbox of course.

i like them new special moves...

Well you said it in such a way. I was talking in general towards the entire series, not Brawl. I've never played Brawl, no, so it could be the best game in the world for all I know, but what I do know is that the ones i've played previous to Brawl were very boring, but that's just my opinion, not fact.

I have a Wii-oriented profession at a Wii and Nintendo specific press site known as The Wiire. I've been working there for a couple of months now on the design team, but I also try and do reviews and look up press info when I can. During my time there and owning a Wii as well I have learned a lot about Wii and why one may want to buy it. It is my professional opinion that most gamers of many types can find at least one thing they can truly enjoy about the Wii.

Edit: My opinion does contain a little bias yes, but my point remains the same and is informed. It was merely an opinion.

I have a wii.


Played wii Bowling till I got to 1000..... Havent touched it since.



Collecting dust and being a cool paper weight is all it is for me.

I am waiting for the right game to come out to make me want to use it.


I am getting SMBB though.

I don't know. The Wii is cool and all, but from what I can gather, it's one of those things that you'll use a few times, then start playing your 360/ps3/PC again. Sure sure, every once in awhile a new game will come out, but there is no lasting appeal... That's just me though.

It's got a web browser in it... :P
Even though the new controllers can really add to a game, usually when I want to play a game I want to just relax and twiddle my thumbs and not wave them around. Still, it is quite fun when you have friends over but it seems to be oriented towards party sort of deals.

I believe my favorite character will be Meta Knight, he kicks ass! His special moves were shown yesterday or the day before that too, loven it!

One thing I am really hating about Wii's is their online abilities.. The games are so protected to "keep children safe." And I say they should have bluetooth keyboards so that after a game or even during it you can type messages to each other but of course I am sure they would say that is too dangerous..

It's not so much that it's not safe, even though it can be dangerous. The main issue currently is that Nintendo doesn't really have a set online system aside from their stupid friend code system and other random little things they allow in Wii software. However Nintendo knows their system isn't going to cut, so I'd think that we could expect a better online system a little later on in Wii's life.
