Is it safe to say that people who own the Wii are:

1. Little kids

2. Older parents who buy into the Wii = exercise marketing campaign

I'm 23 and have no kids. I bought the Wii. So, basically no.

I don't know about that, but I think it IS safe to say that YOU:

1. Went to sleep in late 2006 and just woke up now, subsequently missing the thousands upon thousands of other threads that tried to do exactly what you're trying to do

2. Have never actually played anything on the Wii for more than 5 minutes at Gamestop, and therefore have the opinion of most other people who have no idea what they're talking about.

3. Are STILL angry about Super Mario Galaxy 2 scoring a 10 and are trying to come up with an attempt at belittling people who like the Wii while making yourself feel better about the fact that you can't currently play anything because your 360 just RROD'd AGAIN.

Yeah, I agree with the TC. I think it's been long concluded that all 100% (not an exaggeration) of the people who bought Wii are either under 5 or over 65. All who claim otherwise are just kidding.

Yeah, 100% is probably the conservative estimate.

I'm 19, so I'm not a kid. Also, I'm not a parent either (yet). I bought the Wii. I bought a lot of games for it. I love my Wii. As I said in my other thread, this Wii hating needs to stop. I love my Xbox 360 and my PS3 as much as he next guy, but the Wii has its own place in the gaming ecosystem, which the self proclaimed so called hardcore macho gamers need to understand, acknowledge and appreciate.

Oh no, my cover is blown! :| I admit it, I'm 76, all wrinkled and shrunk, and I bought the Wii to get Wii Fit to regain some of the lost vitality of my youth.

I was 17 or 18 when I purchased my Wii and I don't have kids, so there goes your theory.

3. They can make decisions for themselves and like the games on it. It's hard to believe - I know. The Wii is also cheaper than the 360 now, for around $150, if you buy it standalone at Amazon and a few other places, or bundled with Motion Plus and Wii sports resort. The 360 might be $200, but you have to buy an HDD if you want to do basically anything on XBL Gold - it's really only suitable for 5-10% of 360 owners.

There really is no need for threads like these.
