Does anyone know?

When will the Wii be available for purchase again? It's sold-out literally everywhere.

*Spitfire* · 02-06-2007, 03:44 AM

Honestly random, just keep checking ADs stores keep larger shipments for sales on weekends.

*Ecto Jedi* · 02-06-2007, 02:17 PM

Get a PS3. They're all over the place.

Peanut · 02-06-2007, 02:23 PM

Honestly, between getting a Wii or a PS3, either way you're going to be wasting money on a console with zero games to play and the promise of nothing but future games to come. The only difference is you're going to be paying a couple hundred more for the PS3.

Don't be all hyped to pick one up, just wait it out until the games starting moving out. In the meantime get a 360.

Edit: Oh, just remembered. If you're really set on buying a Wii, Toys R Us is holding a ton for the weekend apparently. Heard this over at Kotaku. It's a chain wide thing, so there's a good chance it's happening at a TRU near you.

Oh, please. I have the Wii, and have been enjoying it.

For others, yes I have seen Peanut's *ahem* 'lack of enthusiasm' when it comes to the new consoles in the other threads.
But really, this is getting quite much, P.

Then why are you getting a PS3?

Yeah, I camped out for 9 hours to get mine, but I finished Zelda...so now it collects dust.

I love games, my friend. I love games and gaming. It's my hobby of choice! It's the PS3! The sequel to one of the greatest gaming machines of all time! It's obviously going to have some great games and I refuse to miss any of them. As much as people like to believe, I am not a fanboy to any company. I'm a fanboy to the industry as a whole. It's hard to believe, but it's quite true.

My mind just exploded.

Yeah, is (rather hard to believe). With the posts I've seen around here, it looks more like you hate games the way you keep ragging (and bashing)-on them.

Which games? We haven't even been talking about any specific games here for like a week?

he seem to want to forget teh word PSP in it. Lol peanut, were not stupid here.

Shark · 02-06-2007, 07:13 PM

Peanut is right. PS3 bombed because it had no games. Wii didn't bomb because of it's 'innovative' upgrade of the Power Glove. But the only game Wii had was Zelda. No one can say Wii had Red Steel, Splinter Cell, or anything like that, because the controls in all of those games suck. And while Super Swing Golf is a great game (as well as the hardest ever), only Mario Golf fans, or people who play golf would like it, so Super Swing isn't for everyone.

Wii will start getting games soon. This month has Sonic, next month has TMNT, no telling when Mario, Metroid, or Smash Bros will come out. The Wii also has classic games (that most people probably downloads roms of anyway for free, instead of buying them with the Wii).

Well you've certainly made quite a case for yourself, idiot.

At least when Ecto types something it's legible and intelligent. Everything you type makes little to no sense at all. If you're going to be an ass, at least make sure I can understand whatever retarded point you're trying to make.

Shark · 02-06-2007, 08:16 PM

Ouch...and thus is how and why the PSP causes anger among the human race.

Aww...Isn't that just the cutest thing ever.

Seriously though, I think the reason people are getting a tad ticked off at you is because of your avatar. Change it to something cute -- like a puppy or kitten, or something. Then I'm sure everyone will cheer up.

And thus is why we are not going to fan the flames of anger.

*coughPSPsuckscough*

Yeah, the Wii and the PS3 suck high quality crap right about now in terms of the games available. Personally, I'm going to get myself a PS3 so I can get the games I love/want. But I'm attached to my PS2 so much that I'm going to wait for that ridiculous price tag to drop so I can sell my dear friend to the museum for the PS3. The Wii however, doesn't really have anything to offer but the Twilight Princess game. At least with the PS3 you know that there will be games that you are going to play on there to come out. The Wii...well, it seems to be targeting sports games now...how it will handle games like TMNT I will never know until I see a demo. Oh well. All we can do is wait...

Aww...You mean I can't kick your ass with Meta-Knight...err...I mean play with you on Super Smash Bros Brawl online when it comes out? That sucks >.< Not a single person I talked to seems to want to get that game, and it's one of the most hyped ever. Odd.
