Is anyone still playing on the Wii?

I'm not sure if I should sell this thing or what. I haven't played it in about four months, and even then all I was playing was Brawl.

No More Heroes 2 is the only title in development that I'm somewhat excited for, even though I wasn't a huge fan of the first game.

Any of you guys still playing with the Wii? What games are you using? Has anyone bothered with Motion Plus or Wii Fit or any of the other optional hardware?

    I got rid of mine a long time ago. Outside of not being able to play Fire Emblem, I could care less about the system.

    My girlfriend and I play Dr. Mario a lot.

    Mario Bros. 2 and 3 as well.

    I play some of my old Gamecube games on it too.

    Really, I just use the Wii for old games I like. If I could hook a normal controller up to it and play the new Madden I would. Other than that, I don't have much interest in it.

    I would buy and play a Wii if more than 2-3 games a year came out that I would actually play. So far not enough has come out to convince me to get one.

    the only reason to own a wii would be the requisite mario titles and no more heroes 2

    was the punch out remake good times?

    I haven't used mine in months

    but I'm not going to be getting rid of it because I intend to play new super mario brothers and mario galaxy 2 when they drop

    also firefox doesn't think mario is a word

    apparantly it doesn't think firefox is a word either

    I am playing Super Ghouls n Ghosts on it. That's something.

    Basically I use it when I want to play NES or SNES or Genesis or when people want to play whatever goofy spastic game du jour is out for the wii.

    i sold it like, over a year ago

    which made me really sad, since i had previously (and continued to) owed a nes, gameboy, snes, gamecube, ds phat, and ds lite

    but the wii just has a shitty lineup

    I'm playing it right now for the Metroid Trilogy which is pretty cool of an update.

    And if anyone ever comes over then we always play House of the Dead: Overkill. Best arcade shooter ever.

    I was playing Tiger Woods Wii for a bit and as good as the gameplay was the career mode was very poorly designed and I got tired of having to shoot a 65 every fucking round to stay in the top 20 in an amateur tournament.

    I play the Wii a lot, though 99% of it is Brawl and Mario Kart. I can pretty much play those forever. I also use it to play my Gamecube games.

    I am perfectly happy with just my 360.

    I could see myself getting a PS3 sometime in the future, especially when I finally get the HDTV I'm saving up for, since a Blu-Ray player would be a nice thing to have.

    I really like the system but Im sick of mario/samus/etc

    need a good shooter (i got the "gun" from links crossbow training. makes wiiplay target shooting much more fun)

    You don't have to dump $400+ on a blu-ray player anymore. You can get a name brand one for like $120.

    Well there don't seem to be much in the way of first or third party games coming out for the Wii right now.

    Seriously just a little bit of common sense in the career mode for Tiger Woods 10 and I'd still be playing it right now.
