Can you still make a small profit off of it?

Sin & Punishment 2 is good enough to make owning a wii worth it
Mario Galaxy 2!
XENOBLADE

Metroid Final Fight

I dunno, 2010 doesn't seem like a year to sell off your wii.

Bebpo · « **Reply #13 on:** February 15, 2010, 04:55:41 PM »

Yeah, Dolphin is a good work around if there aren't emulation problems. I know a guy who played through all of Tales of Graces on Dolphin no problem.

I see what you did there.

With a new Zelda set to be unveiled at E3 and games such as SMG2, Metroid: Other M, Sin and Punishment 2, etc set to release this year, it's quite obvious that all serious gamers need a Wii in 2010.

No, because it'd be ugly and watered down for the main Wii demographics of pre-pubescent children and the elderly.

And I'm not trolling. Zelda has been awful for years. Stupid new gimmick won't change that. Maybe this time he'll drive a straw cart!

Metroid Prime is the best zelda ever. There's item acquasition and dungeons (phendrana drift is my favorite zelda dungeon ever), and cool bosses, and the story is optional. Seriously, more people need to realise their very much the same damn genre.

Eiji aunoma has been doing all the zelda games (sans minish cap) since after majora's mask. So think of all the problems wind waker, spirit tracks, and twilight princess had, and then think about a new zelda from the same guy.
