| Last gaming system I bought was a Playstation, when it was still call by its full name, and PS was just something you put at the end of a letter...I played some game on an Xbox where you killed zombies, but pretty much I am over the whole video game thing...When I couldn't get past the second to last level on the first Tony Hawk game, and more recently when I was at a friends and several of us spent a couple hours trying to get past the first screen of level 2 on a Simpsons game... |

Don't get me started on the WII's...to me the whole point of video games is that I want to kick *ss, while sitting on my *ss. So the WII totally defeats that...besides, air guitar is ridiculous, so how can air bowling, tennis, or fencing be not be as ridiculous even if you are playing on a WII.... |

| I have a WII as well. Wouldn't have one as my sole console, but it is good for a laugh. |

I would like to snowboard with/on a wii. Looks fun. I played Super Mario Galaxi, which is great. So, when I buy a console, I'd go for the Wii |

Super Mario Galaxy is an awesome game! I didn't like it when I first got it, but once I got into it, I was hooked. Still not finished it and I've had it since it came out. For all the games consoles I own, I only really play in the winter when the weather is guff. |

I have the Wii. All it really has been good for is losing 50+ pounds doing wii Fit.I check out the games all the time there are no really good ones for the wii.If there is a good game it usually made for all the systems and is hard as hell to do on the wii. You know how hard it is to do call of duty on the wii.
I am thinking about getting the xbox. But i really don't know which one to get the arcade seems nice for the price but it the pro really worth it.I really don't play games much anymore cause i think i has to do with the wii and lack of good games. |

Wii punch out was fun, reminded me of the older version. My shoulders were sore the day after I started playing it.
Wii is fun for social gatherings (watching someone who has little or no coordination is a blast), and but for more indepth systems/consoles I'd go with the xbox. |

My GF just got a Wii Fit for her birthday (by request - no one's calling her fat!). Did you lose all that weight by using the Wii fit alone or did you do other exercise? (good work by the way, 50 pounds is quite a lot to lose). I'm a touch on the tubby side, I could lose 50 pounds myself. Maybe I should start using the Wii...
