Should I sell my Wii?

[Sporge27]

Meh PC>PS3>Xbox>Wii.....if you could only have one... however

If you take one of the top 3 of my list then I bump Wii to second choice if only because there are some top rate games on no other system aka any of Nintendo's...

I've just never been a fan of the xbox... they aren't made well, being known to break down more than every other system...

If you don't take care of it.

If you:

Lock it in a safe with a little hole in it for the wireless signal to get through.
Cut a hole in the back of the safe for the cords.

it won't probably break.

Actually, that would kill it extremely quickly, as it would any other console, because of overheating. If you really wanna keep it protected, make sure it has plenty of ventilation.

also don't drop it a foot

But it would have some air. :[

Seriously, selling your wii right before E3 might be the least intelligent thing you could do...

This topic reminds me that I should sell my Wee

You got to have room for it to breath lol XD but seriously...

I recommend you keep your Wii because like Jeremy said, wait until Nintendo's E3 Conference is all said done before deciding. I also recommend you get Galaxy 2 before you decide because Galaxy 2 is getting 10 out of 10s and 5 out of 5s.

Plus: Why would you sell your Wii if Other M is on the way in August?

P.S.

The Wii also plays Gamecube Titles and is compatible with many Gamecube implements so that's 2 systems in one right there!

If you like having 0 third party support for your console, a virtually non-existant online experience, loads of shovelware, and gimmicky waggle controls, the Wii is just the system for you!

Now, if you like the best online experience any console can offer, much more processing power, along with exclusives like the Halo and Gears of War franchises, then you may want to consider an XBox.

Sounds great, if I ever have the money to afford a console that is likely to break i'll consider it. Can't wait to pay to play online with screaming 12 year olds.

Really, the failure rate of a console you don't own annoys you? I've had a 360 for four years and I've never had it fail on me. It's fairly obvious that you're using that to justify your irrational fear of the 360. The RROD is no longer an actual issue.

I beg to differ, googling current failure rates of consoles shows the xbox 360 as high as fifty something percent, but I didn't see one less than forty, wii looked under ten percent and the PS3 wasn't that much higher. Fact is the 360 has more failures per sold than the other two.

Do the 360's still scratch discs, or did Microsoft fix that?

A high failure rate doesn't mean all 360s will fail.
I don't have a "fear" of 360s, and i'm certainly not irrational. As Sporge pointed out, the failure rate is still a major problem, which many xbros can't seem to accept.

Each system is great in their own way, alright?

And don't sell it, you won't get much and E3 is coming up.

I'm certainly not denying that last point, but I looked at the most recent articles on the subject and none of those polls seemed to ask the important question of when the console was manufactured.

What's E3?

Pro-tip: Never ask TBT for advie when it comes to consoles :U

Newer 360 units have a lower failure rate. I bought mine around 2 years ago and haven't had any problems. But, why sell your Wii when there are plenty of decent first party exclusives? A few good third party games, too... but they are few and far between.

You still need XBox Live.
