I will never understand the mentality of buying a system, then selling it, and then buying it again.

Too much of a distraction? Learn some self control.

With the Wii, it used to be a safe bet. Find a good deal, own the system for however long you wanted, sell at profit to some desperate soccer mom. It was like a magical rental system.

Why would I be joking? I'm a Smash Brothers fanatic, played the shit out of Mario Galaxy and RE4, then got pulled back in to Zelda: TP. There were too many games that distracted me, so I sold it to a relative. As for exercising self control, I tried but saw no other option at the time.

That's because I don't suffer from ADD like you bitches and create a humongous backlog of STOLEN games you'll probably never play. Unlike most of you, I BUY and stay somewhat committed to my video games.

If you found that owning a gaming system made for too much of a distraction, and that you lacked the self-discipline to control it, then you probably shouldn't be talking about the supposed suffering of others.

I've bought over 50 Ps3 titles, including PSN releases. And I still can't get enough.  :-*
Wii just offers nothing in comparison to the HD consoles.

That makes ZERO sense. It's like telling a former crackhead that they have no self-control or self-discipline because they got rid of all the crack in the house.

Your immediate reaction was to compare yourself and your condition to that of a crack addict? And you're now what, a reformed crack addict? You will probably find that most people would not care much for accusations of behavioral disorders from a crack addict either.

Downloading games is the same as downloading music. Both are legal in my country, though. So I'm no criminal.  :pimp

I don't download games that I don't like. I download them first and then hate on them if they're bad. I wouldn't have bought 95% of the games I've pirated anyway.
A lot of my Ps3 games are multiplatform games that I could've pirated on X360 instead. But I just bought them.
And we don't have a rental service here, so pirating games and testing them out is a better solution than buying and testing.

I only buy the good games anyway.

Also it doesnt have to be for PIRACY reasons.

Reasons for running off USB (wii) -

- shorter load times (most notable in games like House of the Dead where stutter is prevalent)
- no need to juggle discs, all in one spot (think XBLA)
- no strain on laser, longer shelf life
- easy to archive/back up
- can rip directly from disc, saving your disc life

You can still play online with it, you can even use cheats with it.
