any reason to keep my wii?

Substance · 19 Feb 2008 at 18:06

i have had my wii since launch and have 11 games but i haven't turned it on for over a month, i was holding on for ssb:b but even that doesn't look like it will redeem the wii,

Now with the ammount of games i have (and staff discount) i could trade my wii in for a ps3 and 2 games,

Is it worth doing considering i already have a 360 and only 1 hdmi port?

If you never play it then trade it in. Does your 360 connect via HDMI? if it does then swap that for another connection and use HDMI for PS3 to make the most of BD and DVD upscaling etc.

If you don't want it and you want a PS3, then do it. No brainer really?

Having played SMG to death I'm not using mine as much anymore either.

I don't play my 360 either though.

Sell them all and upgrade your PC

Its a pretty doorstop.

But trade it for a PS3

well i don't really want a ps3 it would get used for blu-ray and the odd exclusive, but that would be a hell of a lot more than my wii

Browsing from my phone at work is difficult

Well if you don't really want a PS3 either then why not trade it in and get some money? buy some more games or something.

It's an amazing game, but if you think you'd prefer a PS3 and can get a good trade in then why not do it

Mario Kart Wii
Super Smash Bros Brawl
No More Heroes
Okami
Star Wars : Force Unleashed and maybe many more SW games to come.
Spore
Alone in the dark 5 (want to see what they do with the wii remote)
Disaster : Day of Crisis

I have not played my Wii for a month but want to keep it, mainly because i love Nintendo but also for the fact their will be many great games to come. But if you have your heart set on a PS3 and you are not using your Wii then go for it.

I'm going to trade my 360 for a wii as the 360 is never played!

If it was me I wouldn't. It's not that uncommon for me to go a month or two without using one of my consoles. It all depends on what games come out. I would hold onto it in case a game I really wanted came out for it.

But it's all down to your playing habits and if you think you'd get more out of a PS3 then you might as well.

A month!??! Doesn't seem like much to me, mind you I played the wii for at an estimate around 10 hours during 2007 (got it at launch 06 and beat zelda in 40-50 hours

, played a fair bit of wii sports too and didnt bother with red steel) and then 2 or so when I got mario galaxy this christmas

.
I wouldn't bother paying for the ps3 if you aren't that interested, just sell the wii then keep the cash/vouchers for when you do want something? I do warn you that smash bros brawl is out soon and thats a big wii release that many will enjoy.
