Okay i just got a modded 360 and i have a Ps3, i play them alot but the wii is just not being used. Ive completed the games i wanted to Mario galaxy, zelda and Metroid prime, i have a wiikey and more games so i just wanted you guys view on selling the wii (i can get like £330 for it or more due to christmas rush).
i know games like Brawl and Mario Kart are coming out next year, so i was thinking IF i like those games i should just get it again then for like £220 with the mod etc. Do you think i should sell as i wont be playing it until those games come out.
P.s. im the only one who plays it, no family things lol.
Cheers

thats exactly what im doing this year. sell it for a buttload of money then use that money to buy another one later then mod it and maybe even buy a ps3 or 360 with any money left over.

seems like a good idea but when time comes to buy another one you're going to have to install a d2ckey which is going to suck to do. Unless you pay someone to mod it for you then whatever.

Personally id just keep it i have the Wii the 360 and my brother has the PS3, he never plays on the thing hes always on the wii but then so is everyone who comes to my house, the wii suffers graphically and in processing power compared to the other 2 but more than makes up for it in sheer gameplay and fun. You will earn a shitload from selling it atm if your lucky but the average price of the wii in local papers here is 190 i know on ebay they go for twice that just goes to show how stupid and greedy some people are.

Wii, PS3 & 360 ... all good for different reasons but if you got more than one you gonna neglect the other to the point you start telling yourself it's pants and there you have it - instant fanboy slagging stuff off ... which is against the rules btw ;)

You don't think the Wii is worth having cos it's not used then sell it.... not that hard to figure out tbh!

WTF are you on about Shut-tfu.
i am asking whether its worth to keep for Brawl and Mario kart.

Dont try calling me a fanboy, i have all three so how can i be a fanboy! DUH

Its pants for me because i have ps3 and xbox360 so i have no time for it and my family dont play it, i didnt say its pants for everyone, and your trying to convert what im saying into fanboy flaming, ive been here longer than you, i know what to and what not to do so take your retarded opinions elsewhere.

hmmmm - I don't recall calling you or anybody a fanboy. You need to chill and not be so rude m8. I'm not retarded. My post was made with good intention and I feel my advice was clear, concise and good as well.

I don't intend to flame you or anyone here because I am actually better than that - even though I ain't been here as long as you ;)

If you "know what to do and what not to do " your words , why are you in a nintendo thread asking if you should keep it ?? if you "know what to do " then you dont need to ask. And as to your being here longer than others no one really gives a toss, your not offering information to solve a problem your asking a bunch of strangers whether you should sell an item you feel you have no further use for and you have the nerve to call somebody elses views retarded ??

calling a console pants coz u no longer play it is hardly constructive in a wii forum. adding that u meant it was pants only to yourself and not others later does not count. fanboy comments although on this occasion i believe was a generalisation and not directed at anyone personally, can be easily misconstrued and taken out of context and should be avoided.

i think that someone who can afford every premium console out there has far too much money and i am green with envy :P

A previous poster mentioned it was pants and i agreed lol.
LOL, I just get them cheap from people.
Any mod- i think you should close the topic as more people are going to argue about the fanboy and what not.
Thanks all.
