Default Is anyone considering a WII?

I have my old xbox for sale at the moment. I haven't bought a game for it in over a year so I didn't see any reason to keep it. I get bored easily.

Having said that I might buy a WII I quite like the idea of swinging a controller around as if it is a sword or a bat.
The main reason of buying one of these is when we have parties or friends round it could be fun playing pairs tennis or something.

Is anyone else considering getting one?

I'm sure the novelty of the controller will wear off after a while, just like the PS2's Eyetoy, it was great for the first hour or so but soon became boring....

I'll stick with the 360 for the time being, decent range of games and it's HD...

Your probably right, I would imagine after a couple of hour your arm becomes numb.

Me. I always found rated Nintendo highly in the "playability" factor. Not everyone wants fighting or car racing games.

But one of Nintendos best ever games was Mario Kart. Surely that'll come under car racing games (and dont be clever and say its under Kart Racing games )
