Wii is by far the best system... it's what consoles should be. Otherwise, might as well rock a PC.

Bought one, played it pretty often for about a couple of months, then just lost interest entirely. I'm 1/4 of the way through the Metroid game, a little over 1/2 way through Zelda, and have gotten tired of kicking everyone's *** at mariokart and smash brothers.

I can't bring myself to sell it, but I don't really have much urge to play anymore. Don't know what happened.

^Spam!

I need to buy some Wii points so I can access the Internet with it.

Anyone knows how much points I need to buy for the browser?

i don't remember how many points, but i am pretty sure it was like $10. buyer beware tho, my verizon wireless router refuses to work with the wii (or vice versa), but my linksys router works fine. just try to check whats compatible so you don't waste some money.

My bro got a Wii for christmas 07 and its been sitting in my room untouch for at least the last 6 months. I just wish they could go higher then 480p cuz I don't have a single non HD screen at this point. (PC monitor, projector, and Plasma TV)

I just got one as well. Wouldn't go as far as saying its the best system, but Tiger Woods '09 is fun as hell on the Wii and probably wouldn't be as much fun on my PS3.

Wii is fun. Great for familys/kids/parties. But it's no powerhouse like the 360 and ps3. 1080p ftw. It's just too hard to drink beer and smoke a doob when you're standing up and swinging your arms everywhere jk

Talking

Damn didnt think there would be this much response. Having kids helps as an excuse to play...my 10 year old daughter can hang too. I want the new World @ War, like MOH heroes 2, playing with the zapper on my projector is the closest to virtual reality.....its no PS3 graphically(360 sucks) but but that immersive game play out does even a mouse and keyboard. (only girls use pads.....once a month) F-ing cant wait for Street Fighter 3 too.

Oh and when I bought my Wii I never had to buy online access..or browser. Turned it on, entered my WIP # for ewire router and thats it. Wii uses Opera browser. Also my 2.4ghz cordless phone cuts off my WFC. So keep this in mind when trying to connect to WiFi.
