I freakin' hate console hype

I fall victim to it every year,

last year, when XBox360 was being released, there was nothing more that I wanted than to own one.

I'm happy I didn't buy it, but I came mightly close. I don't even like any of the games out right now, except for Fight Night Round 3... oh and Gears of War looks cool too.

NOW, all this Hype for Wii is killing me.

I'm a poor college student with a 600 dollar credit card bill. I can't afford a Wii and a game. BUT IT'S ZELDA! My favorite game series.

I wish all these damn Twightlight Princess reviews weren't so glowing. That way, I wouldn't want one.

What's worse is I have a Gamecube. I could just play Z:TTP on that.

seriously, i never thought i'd buy a console, and then, along came the wii.

I'm still trying to decide if I want a 360 myself. I really want to play Oblivion because I loved Morrowind, but it's just so expensive.

We should link our Wii's together, then we could play with each others Wii's!!

Who cares what our friends think, as long as we are happy right?

That sounds awesome. What would we do, create a thread with everyone's Wii username?
 
Just put your Wii name in your sig.

Imaging having sword fights or boxing matches with fellow Anandtech members! AWESOME!!!

I love how the Wii has WiFi built-in. This thing is gonna rock!
 
This will be the first time I buy a console and buy non-pirated version games, assuming their game prices stay reasonable.
 
someone tell me what's the deal with the wii.

seriously. I don't get why everyone is in love with it. are you all the excited to wave around a controller?

I am all the excited to wave around a controller.
 
I used to work at a video gaming place and was on top of the whole console scene, but now it's closed and i'm not on top of it anymore. I didn't even know the PS3 was coming out so soon until tonight. None of my friends talk about it, all they talk about is the Wii.

The whole online sword fights sound cool.

I wonder if it'll be harder for developers to develop for these controllers and maybe in a year or two all the ideas for the controller interface will be taken up. Eh i dont know, i'm tired
 
I am a little sceptical of it. It looks like the only thing it really has going for it is Zelda. I really dont see any other games that interest me, except for maybe Red Steel.

Dont get me wrong, though. I am camping out the Saturday before to get one. Zelda seems reason enough to get one.
