I do not follow Wii news that frequently so I need someinput from the forum. I was wondering is there anything in the ner future that would be worth waiting for? (price drop, improved hardware, etc)
Dont get the Wii right now, there is only one good game out, and thats on GC too. I would wait a while...until Online comes on and theres alot better games...

WHAT?! there are tons of great games other than Twilight Princess! Tiger Woods, Madden, WarioWare Smooth Moves, Rayman Raving Rabbids, Trauma Center Second Opinion, Godfather Blackhand... the list goes on!!!
 I would get a Wii ASAP, or you'll have trouble finding one this summer when Super Smash Bros. Brawl and Mario Galaxy come out. Everyone is gonna want one then...
I would say get one (if you can find one, they are still scarce where I live :P ). Yes, there are some better games in the future, but even the ones right now are just really fun to play. I know I really like mine. :)
And don't forget Trauma Center, which is an excellent game. And if like me you never owned a SNES or N64, the VC has plenty to offer as well. I like having a console that's affordable at launch. You have to wait a while to play all the truly killer apps, but you get to watch it grow from the beginning, and it's easier to be sure you have every game released that you want from the beginning, rather than having to go back and catch up on what you missed. I bought a DS at launch and didn't get any GREAT games for it until late 05/mid 06, and I'm fine with that. And why would Nintendo do a price drop when they are half as cheap as one of their competitors and signifigantly cheaper than the other and selling tons of consoles? If anything in a year or so you'll see one with a dvd player (big deal) or some other colors, probably for the same price, with the standard system selling at a 200 dollar price tag. This could take longer than a year to happen though, and there's plenty to do with the system for now and in the forseeable future. It won't be long after Super Paper Mario wears off before Nintendo starts giving us release dates for stuff like Brawl, Super Mario Galaxy, etc..

I agree with you. People need too wake up and smell vc. cause in the futer they will release classic that will make you bite your nuckles and say "man im stupid for not getting the wii"just wait till game come out like golden eye 64,or even NBA hangtime. and then when metriod come out in the summer your goin to hate yourself even more cause people like you are saying the same thing every were." oh, im goin to wait latter on on till the good game come out for the wii".then when that day come your not going to find one at all. so i suggest you look while you have the chance!
is it just me who thinks that the VC is very annoying... i mean the prices are way tooo high, and if i want to read something about new releases on the wii, all i can see is VC-releases...

i like the old games, but i've played the best of them and would not buy them again for so much cash...

I have to agree with you on the high prices. $10 for an N64 game? Sony selling full length PSOne games for $6-7 to play on the PSP through the PS3's online store. I've only bought a very select few of the classic games. I would be more if they were cheaper.
I dont know, the wii was really fun right away, (Twilight Princess), and then i found most of the fun came from playing the wii in a group, games like monkeyball and warioware.
He heard that about a year ago when it was discussed by Nintendo. Although this is just speculation and Nintendo thinking out loud, basically they planned on making an add on DVD player or a new version of the Wii that had the dvd built in. This however was mentioned a long time ago before the success of the Wii. If you search Wii DVD in the search bar I'm sure something would pop up. And back to the original post, I, like you, felt I should wait till some reasonable games came out. However, I decided I couldn't wait any longer and picked one up this past weekend. My opinion: buy now. Wii sports is amazing with friends (living in a college dorm helps) and can get competitive with some intense players (my roommate and I have been trying to outdo each other at power bowling for the past 3 nights). Honestly if all you get is the Wii (with Wiisports), Zelda TP (amazing with the Wiimote, just introduces action games in a great way), and some other random game that looks interesting, it will hold you over, plus you won't have to worry about catching up with the games.
