Would you guys recommend these Wii's considering how they are priced?

http://www.amazon.com/gp/offer-listi...condition=used

I'd love to try out the Wii Call of Duties on there, if the community is still going.

and ofcourse, the Smash Bros that I missed and all the other Mario games.

Can this look good on an HDTV while using Netflix?

I dont plan on getting a Wii U, and I think these are the Wiis that come with Gamecube playback, correct?


Yay or Nay?

I would say Nay for now; it seems that the Wii U release seems to be close so i would hold out

I played a couple CODs when they first launched and the community was not very big so I would imagine it is very small now. The only good thing is that it doesn't support voice chat so you can't hear any annoying people on there. It's great for Smash Bros and pretty much every first party Nintendo game. The Wii doesn't support HD Netflix so if that was your primary use for it I would look out for a 4GB Xbox instead.

Any word on when the Wii U Might be released? I'm considering purchasing an original Wii...

Rumor is it'll be out in time for the holiday season, so perhaps November.

get the wii, do a soft mod and have some real fun, it is worth it then for under a hundred bucks with a decent sized external hard drive. just pick up a copy on lego indy and you will be all set

Can you go online and play with a soft modded wii?

Yes, check out gbatemp.net they have really good guides on how to do it. Best Wii to soft mod is the old version that plays GC games though. Last time I checked the newer ones were not as easy to mod.

Smash Bros and Twilight Princess work great, too.

Also remember that the newer DVD drives can not read a burnt disc so that is another advantage the old ones have.

Are the Wii's that Amazon is selling the older models?

Should I go for an acceptable one?

Netflix was so so it only covered part of the screen on my 32 inch LCD where as the PS3 for example covered the whole thing. Other than that it was alright I guess.

FYI, It can be done without a game know, google "letterbomb"

Mario and Sonic at the London 2012 Olympics - 34.24 (very good)

I'd recommend checking Craigslist for a used wii, I just got one today with 3 extra controllers, two 007 games, wii sports and another wii game with pool and ping pong. All for $70.

Sadly, the people in my area still think Wii's are worth over $150 used.

Thanks, I ordered one. Can't wait for it to come in the mail.

Here's an okay deal if you don't mind your LE not being mint.
Fate/Extra LE 25.99

It's listed as "Good" condition, but the description notes two faults with it. Definitely not as banged up as the first wave Amazon shipped out to the folks that preordered though.
