Wii collecting dust?
Here is an interesting piece I ran across about this guy’s experience with his Nintendo Wii. Basically he doesn’t really play the Wii unless with friends. He has played some other games but feels they have no replay value once they are finished unless you are playing multi-player.
I can see his point about the gaming experience as multi-player is the Wii’s biggest strength. Ever since we got an Xbox 360, we have played more games on it than on the Wii. My husband has even been buying the arcade games available through Xbox Live. Lately all I’ve really used the Wii for is Wii Fit despite having three new games to play on it.
The Nintendo Wii is a great console and has some fun games especially for multi-player. For other games, it’s OK. I have to admit that I will not be buying games that I can also get for the Xbox 360. So many games now can do updates and add game content that is available through Xbox Live.
Also I find playing games with the Wiimote is a little bit of a challenge. I usually play with the classic controller since it is more natural and I do a lot better in the game. Some games become old very fast especially if you are playing by yourself but can keep you occupied for hours if playing with friends.
Our Wii is collecting too much dust, yet. It is all because of Wii Fit since I really haven’t played any Wii games besides that one in about a month. I’m not ready just yet to pack away the Wii as I do believe that our gaming tastes will swing back towards the Wii at some point. It’s just too fun not to ever play again.
So, when was the last time you played a game on your Wii?
