    If her boyfriend is a wee-man, I don't think she would have had much fun.

    Wow... Toys R Us forces you to pay $700 to get the Wii and 10 mostly- ty games. Rayman is the only good-looking one in that package. Spiderman 3 was a piece of dog , as was Transformers.
    ooh Crash Bandicoot!! awesome

    i dont think it's so much as it's outselling them...i know that the 360 and wii are pretty close in sales... but i could be wrong... it's just nintendo hasnt been able to keep up with demand and arent producing enough units.
    The Wii has actually equaled or surpassed (depending upon the source) the 360 in sales. This would be considered a close to negligible margin except that the Xbox 360 has had almost a full year longer with it's product in stores. The Xbox released on November 22, 2005, while the Wii released on November 19, 2006.

    Calculated into per month sales, the 360 has sold around 13 million units worldwide. If we equate that to the Wii as well, for 13 million units, the 360 is averaging sales of around 520,000 consoles per month, while the Wii has sold just over 1,000,000 units per month. This is a rather large difference, and if it persists, will ensure the dominance of Nintendo for this generation of gaming.

    To the naysayers, they should also be reminded that the Ps3 currently has precious few highly rated games available, and the 360 had a well-known dearth of even decent les the first year that the system was released, as well as nation-wide shortages. The only difference is that the demand for the Wii is perhaps the highest in gaming history. Not even the vaunted Ps2 had this kind of demand a year after launch. There are also numerous stellar les for the Wii, including Zelda, Metroid Prime 3, Medal of Honor 2, Resident Evil 4, and the Gamespot.com Game of the Year, Super Mario Galaxy. Super Smash Bros. Brawl, if as good as hyped, could make the system worth owning for that game alone.

    So yeah! Get a 360! If you like sports, racing, and FPS games, it's great. Of course, the PC does FPS games much better. And the sports games aren't as impressive unless you have a 1080p television with HDMI hookups. And hey, the 360 is a ton of fun to send back to Microsoft every 5 months when you get a Red Ring of Death!

    She asked about a Wii. So take your 360 love elsewhere. I doubt she's a big Halo 3 fan, so there's little reason for her to own an X-Box.

    Yes, resident evil is an awesome game! loved it! and you're right about the 360. My brother is obsessed with Halo and wants a 360 so i'll just let him buy that system.

    I found a couple of sites that had a wii for sale but one was this:
    Sale price: $447.99
    Nintendo Wii + Wii Sports (5 Games) + 2 Controllers + 1 Nunchuk + Wii Play (9 Games) --2PlayerBundle

    and the other was $400. For those that already have one, is that what you paid for it?

    I paid $250.00 for my Wii plus $50 for Wii games because it comes with an extra controller. I recommend signing up for Wii alerts and they will email and text you when they become available online somewhere. Amazon gets them periodically but you have to have the alert because they sell out in minutes.

    I bought via circuit city online - it was 250 for the core, then you had to buy an accessory (I bought the wii points card $20), and you had to buy two games or a game and a major accessory... I bought paper mario ($50?) and an additional controller ($40). The whole thing was... $360 plus tax...?

    It wasn't bad, it didn't force you to buy stuff you didn't need - i made sure to work it for all things I needed, then I also bought the Wii Play game w/ the additional controller later and a controller charge and play set up. A lot of the packages you're forced to buy online are rip-offs though.

    My comment was more directed towards Kentu than you. Hence the fact that I pre-empted it with "the naysayers", if you would have actually read what I originally posted. Stop being so defensive and feeling the need to clarify your position, if it was so harmless. Bring up off topic in a thread that has nothing to do with the subject and I'm going to respond to it. She wants a Wii, makes a post about it, and a multiple individuals chimed in about the 360. What does that have to do with the OP? She knows what she wants. No one needs to tell her "what" to buy, and no one needs to turn it into a gaming thread, as we have one already. Talk about the 360 in that thread.

    As for the fanboy comment, my console of choice is actually not a console at all. I'm a PC gamer first and foremost (you know, the system that does nearly every genre well). I just like the look of the Wii for my avatar, but I will probably be changing that soon.

    Good effort at exposing me for a "fanboy" for bringing factual information into the topic, though.

    That's a great idea, thanks! I signed up for alerts from newegg.com since they have them for $250. I'll have to look around for more alerts.

    You keep using that word. I do not think it means what you think it means.

    While we could continue this cycle, I refuse to let this turn into a "Princess Bride" thread.
