Will there be another Wii shortage this Christmas?
 
Just wondering if I should use the one I have, or sell it on Craigslist in December.

i dont get all the wii hype, the graphics look like total shit compared to xbox/ps3

farkedup 10-14-2008 11:01 AM

the shortage is of the new elmo ;) I found some at Target the week they came out and bought 8 of them and will be sitting on them until December!

Martin 10-14-2008 11:02 AM

Yes, I've been looking for the hot item this Christmas too. Any idea what it will be?

RedShoe 10-14-2008 11:06 AM

they got them at Game Dude.

Evil Chris 10-14-2008 11:17 AM

We use the PS3 primarily, but if there's no shortage, I'll just open it up for the playroom and my son can have at it.

there has to be a high demand for shortages... anyone over the age of 18 realized the wii sucked after 3 weeks of having it.

1 guy at the office sold his already, the other one put it on the downstairs tv for his nephew to play and plays his xbox and ps3 instead.

BradM 10-14-2008 11:21 AM

I spent way too much on that piece of shit. What a disappointment.

TubeTitans_SusieQ 10-14-2008 11:33 AM

probably but after playing everyone elses lol i dont need my own

Evil Chris 10-14-2008 11:37 AM

I've never actually played with one before.
I picked one up having heard about another possible shortage.

annaliese 10-14-2008 11:48 AM

if someone has a wii that they don't want feel free to send it over. i rather enjoy the simplicity. ;)

Sosa 10-14-2008 11:54 AM

Wii is fun for parties etc, but if you are a gamer that gets into games stick with 360/PS3

WebairChris 10-14-2008 11:57 AM

well if there is a shortage I will put mine up for sale....I kept interest in it for a few weeks and that was it.

RobertD 10-14-2008 11:58 AM

Back when the Wii was called GameCube everyone thought they were crap :disgust

candyflip 10-14-2008 12:00 PM

Probably, but I still can't see why. Anyone who wanted one probably has one, and anyone who doesn't has played one and knows it's a waste of money.

Wii is for kids under 10 and adults over 65.

This thread reminds me of the Spice Girls. No one admits to liking them, yet they sold millions of albums... :2 cents:

Bojangles 10-14-2008 12:13 PM

Got my Wii right before summer, I do believe. I enjoy it.I have a friend who hates video games, and he liked the Wii as well.

Manowar 10-14-2008 12:57 PM

the wii is so damn shit

Honez 10-14-2008 12:59 PM

I'll admit it. I actually have one on my Christmas list.

fris 10-14-2008 01:52 PM

their will be a shortage of all the systems cause parents will wait until the last week to buy one, then complain they cant.

This is so true. I remember the rush for Guitar Hero Legends of Rock last Christmas. That was insane.

SarahLLO 10-15-2008 04:23 AM

Sell it to meeeeeee. I need to grab one before Tales Of Symphonia: Dawn Of The New World comes out next month, because Namco Bandai's Tales Of series is totally my pet franchise. Unfortunately for me, they spread their games over almost every console they can =P I've got two of their games for the PS2, one for the GBA, one for the 360, one for the GameCube, and there are games for the PSP and DS as well =/ And then if I really want to get serious, tons of games that never got imported to North America at all...

Yes, I'm seriously planning on buying a Wii, PSP, and a DS just for these games. I'm gamer-whipped.

Anyhow, to contribute to the actual topic, stores around here don't have them in stock... I check every time I'm in a store that might have one, because I don't want to break down and pay way over retail on eBay =/

NikKay 10-15-2008 06:32 AM

Anyone wanting to sell their Wii and avoid ebay let me know! :)

brassmonkey 10-15-2008 06:34 AM
