Should I buy a Wii?

I'm thinking about buying a Nintendo Wii. I certainly don't need one, and I worry that I might get bored of it after only a few weeks. Also, I probably shouldn't spend the money... but I still kinda want to.

[Poll #1362714]

To the Aussies on my friendslist, what's a good price to pay? Kmart has a sale at the moment, and you can get the console, with a nanchuck, a remote, and three games (Wii Sports, Wii Music, and TV Show King Party or Fun Fair Party) for $399. But then I'd have to buy at least another nanchuck thingo, and I really want Wii Fit... which is another $124.

Hmmm... to be responsible or not to be responsible? That is the question.

I have been anti-video games my whole life. I suck at them!

But my Wii? Oh, I love my Wii.

I use it constantly...from Mario Cart, to Wii Sports, to Wii Fit.

Love it, love it, love it.

(my Mom who's 69 even plays!)

The last game console I bought was a Sega Mega Drive, which I bought in the 90s. I've avoided them since then, but so many people who usually hate video games keep telling me how much they love their Wii.

I couldn't resist any longer, so I bought one! I'm looking forward to playing!

Yeah! You won't regret it.

If you get Mario Kart, we should watch for each other on International online play. I actually ended up in a game with a friend of mine from England once! That was soooo cool!
