Apparently, people want to sell their Wii Systems due to all the shovelware and "lack of support" for the console.
However, given that almost all of the console games that give me interest are from Wii, and the fact that there is HUGE retro game support (and WiiWare) for Wii, as well as the simply fun motion controls, I am remaining with my Wii. (Also, my father worked hard to get my Wii!)

Oh, and go ahead and support your XBOX360 if you want to! Such is YOUR choice! /not referring to the maker of this thread/

OK another problem im having with this issue. My neighbour has a ps3 (he got it after his wii) and now he's really annoying to me when he comes over (which is like everyday, dunno why he always comes by) and when he comes over we play wii and do sports. However, its so annoying playing wii cuz hes always like: "these graphics suck", "man the wii is such a sh****y console", "you should really get a ps3", "man the wii is the worst console out of all of them, why do you still have this". I'm wondering how you people deal with this or how would you? I keep telling him its the motion controls, its the gameplay which is best on wii and keep telling him statistics of how the wii's sales are killing the ps3 and every other console since its the best. However i'm starting to become very annoyed with him, mainly because i can't really refute the things he does say like "the wii being the least advanced" or having the worst graphics and such because those things are true...guys? what do i do?

Well, considering what you just told, here's my advice:
-If graphics were really that important nobody would buy Wii in the first place. The graphics is the least advanced, yes, but theres a great variety of games which doesn't need good graphics to be outstanding (including VC games and WiiWare).
-Wii is a console aimed for the hole family, and not only gamers. Because of this strategy Wii is selling like h*** out there.
-Games like GH (all consoles have one, PS2 and 3, Xbox 360...) have the same difficult level (and the last thing you will notice when playing is the graphics).
-I enjoy playing in any console (don't know if that's your case), be NES or PS3, each console has its unique features and beauties. Make him realize this fact.
-If you want good graphics, buy a PC for gaming. PC has a gargantuan variety of games (including Xbox's and PS3's) and it will look better (I played Fallout 3 on PC, Xbox 360 and PS3). Online feature is not as good though.
-I could say you should tease him a little with this comments, but maybe that's too agressive :/ (just to see his reaction )
-Ask yourself what other good and unique features Wii have, and throw them in conversation ^^
-And finally, just be yourself and don't let him bother you with lame, common sense giberish!

Graphics don't make a good game. While I can appreciate a well-implemented motion-controlled game, that's not what I bought the Wii for.

Oh, and I thought about selling my Wii on a few occasions, but not because due to lack of games. Actually, it was exactly the opposite: I was spending too much money on the damn thing. Fortunately, I have curbed some of that spending at this point in time.

Heck no, never did, never will. I fully support the Nintendo Wii. Sure after it's prime that I may retire it, but I will keep regardless of how many people ***** about the Wii. And when I do retire it, I will put it in a nice place to remember those good days with the Wii and defending it. It made me the hardcore gamer I am today (Or at least a regular gamer).

Please, do not. After all, there has to be SOME reason why people sell their Wii consoles for XBOX360s!

Had a wii since launch and still supporting it, my son was wanting a 360 for his next birthday but when he saw that the only games he wanted for it were on the wii as well as a load of other games that were only on the wii he had changed his mind.
Now he's planning on getting his own wii, which is cool because at least we can play online with each other ... its just a pity that I will have to buy some of the wiiware games that I already own for him. lol

I know how to install WADs on a wii but unfortunately I plan on keeping both systems Legit. Its just a shame you cant just stick em on an SD card a play them on his too.

Ya imagine that xD.
spin off from your thing It would also be cool if after beating or not wanting to play a vc game anymore, if you could gift it away (causing the data to leave your wii permanently though instead of deleting it or moving it into storage. Personally, id love to give away a lot of vc games to someone who doesnt have many that i know and i know would greatly appreciate some free gifts.
