I wanted to buy a Wii, but now i'm not so sure. My reasoning is pretty simple:
There are no games coming out.
I looked at the release list and all they offer currently for me are Wii Sports, which comes with the damn thing, and Zelda, which i could buy right now for Gamecube. Past that there's almost nothing going on until Christmas, unless you are interested in PSP(wtf?) ports with tacked-on Wiimote functionality.
Sometimes I don't understand Nintendo. They have a legendary amount of hype surrounding their console currently and to capitalize on this, they are releasing what? Wii Play? perhaps they were hoping that 3rd parties would come along and pick up the slack, but that has simply not happened yet. I envision playing though Zelda (or getting bored of it) in a few weeks and then occasionally taking out to show Wii Sports to guests like once a month until Metroid Prime comes out in like eight months.
