Unless you collect consoles I would sell it. You'll get at least $200. Ask yourself what can you do with one less wii and at least 200 more $$$.

I've never regretted selling mine and that was almost 3 years ago. The novelty wore off after the first night. The funny thing is that I kept the gamecube and still play monkey ball on it to this day.

If you don't use it, then sell it.

Mine was gathering dust until recently, as well, so I know how you feel. Most 3rd part games besides No More Heroes sucks, and Nintendo hasn't released any REAL games in ages. They've announced new Mario, Zelda and Metroid games, but... bit late for that.

But anyway, yeah, sell it and use the money to get something you will use.

Any thoughts? Is there any redeeming qualities about it?
Thats like saying should I sell my left testicle since I only use one of them.

In all reality I rarely use mine and the only reason why I have one is because my wife is more likely to play video games on that then anything else. The ladies love the wii!

I say ... wait till New Super Mario Bros comes out and see if you like it. If not, sell it, no doubt.

absolutely not!!! the wii is th eonly sdystem of its kind and too many haters fail to recognize its ingenuity...the active video gaming system, the possibilities are endless. however, i recognize that nintendo has had a rough time getting it off the ground but not form a sales point of view

nintendo is the only system maker able to turn a profit in the last 2 yrs on the ds and wii and the wii is older than that. tons of fun games...tiger woods is fun, madworld is entertaining atleast, RE4 was bomb diggity. its hard getting a contract on games where all the other systems that have been around and pay billions for proprietary rights. basically, newer, better games are being released every day for the wii, give it a chance, dont sell, and take part in the only "active" video game system....atleast its good exercise and theres no RROD or blu ray player problem or whatever

The Wii is originality. But also incredibily child-ish. RE4, Madworld, and...? The Conduit? Oh, and COD WAW.

Sorry, nop. It's good to have it being casual gamer, but being hardcore, you can only choose PC, 360 or PS3.
