It was great working with you, and EIF was a good laugh! @ Barry: I can understand where you're coming from - the console certainly doesn't have the output rate of core games of the other consoles - but I've honestly never had the problem of the Wii gathering dust. Maybe it's because I'm an NTSC gamer and have a wider (and cheaper) selection of games, but between titles like Super Mario Galaxy, No More Heroes, Boom Blox, as well as everything on Wiiware and the virtual console, I never have that issue. @ Chris: Sorry to hear that you’re leaving, but I understand how other committments can really dig into writing time.

Yes social gaming exactly. Great for parties or with a gaming partner, but can't replace what other consoles can offer. Still, I'm giving it a fair go lol Hi Donna, thanks for comments.

Its main target though is social gaming. If you have friends around or a significant other to play with, then it's great for gaming together. For single player games it's not really there, but for gaming with a bunch of friends who are actually in your house, it's great. The Wii is the ultimate party accessory.

City, that's how I feel about the Xbox, and it meets my expectations for my gaming style. The Wii may very well become a novelty that will wear off, but it's a different type of gameplay and won't take the Xbox slot in my living room Hi both, thanks for the comments.

But with the Wii.. Ack I just dont know, it seems fun but then everyone i know whos had one says the love fizzles away after a while, and I dont want that.. I have to have commitment in my consoles to bring me good times, any time!
