yuppicide Posted December 26, 2010 Share Posted December 26, 2010 (edited) My Mom got us a Wii for Christmas. I don't really want one. I'm happy with my Gamecube. She got it as a gift for all three of us, but I don't really like my Girlfriends Daughter, so far as I'm concerned it's OUR gift. But anyway, I know she got it on QVC. It's a black unit. Looking on their website I see the cheapest bundle is $299.99. The system is "brand new". I say it in quotes because the daughter opened it when she wasn't allowed to. So, it's been played for a few hours. I'll know shortly what exact system bundle it is when I package it back up and put it back in the box. I'll post a picture too. I'm thinking of letting it all go for $150 + shipping. So, you're getting $300 worth of stuff for $150. If anyone is interested shoot me a message.

Dude, being a stepdad is hard enough, why make it worse? 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+LS650 Posted December 27, 2010 Share Posted December 27, 2010 Geez, there are some good games for the Wii. Who doesn't like Wii Sports, for crying out loud..? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yuppicide Posted December 27, 2010 Author Share Posted December 27, 2010 I've never been into the "kiddie" like graphics of those Wii titles.. If I give her the Wii it'll be in her bedroom since she's not allowed to use our television.. and I'd feel like my Mom got me nothing for Christmas. Which is fine with me, but I'd rather have a nice set of pots and pans or her have the money back. I need some new pots and pans still or a computer video card.

yuppicide Posted December 27, 2010 Author Share Posted December 27, 2010 By the way, two people messaged me regarding this system. I'll let you know in the morning what system exactly it is and what's going on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigO Posted December 27, 2010 Share Posted December 27, 2010 (edited) Sounds like it might not be a bad price, depending on exactly what's in it. I have been considering this bundle at Costco: http://www.costco.co...y=1&topnav=&s=1 Edited December 27, 2010 by BigO Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MagitekAngel Posted December 27, 2010 Share Posted December 27, 2010 I say keep it but I don't purport to know what's best. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
seanhq Posted December 27, 2010 Share Posted December 27, 2010 Our Wii doesn't get a lot of play, but when it does, people are happy. Mario Kart, Wii Bowling, New Super Mario Bros Wii, Super Smash Bros Brawl just to name a few good games for the system. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dragos Posted December 27, 2010 Share Posted December 27, 2010 I've never been into the "kiddie" like graphics of those Wii titles.. Says the guy posing on a retro forum..... GRAPHICS DO NOT MAKE A GAME FUN.... EVER!!!! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure about your area, but there are plenty of people on craigslist local to me willing to softmod it for $25 in my area. Check your local craigslist.

Mind you we don't have the whole story, but suffice it to say I would not buy this with my present understanding. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yuppicide Posted December 28, 2010 Author Share Posted December 28, 2010 I'm not a grinch. She has her own television, we have ours. It's the only television we have. So, if my Girlfriend is on the computer I use the television and vice versa. Anyway, still for sale.. here's pics.. sorry I fingerprinted it.. smudges easy.. Wii system, Wii Sports, Wii Sports Resort, and Deluxe Gaming Bundle which includes component cable, carry case, and a bunch of stuff.

keilbaca Posted December 28, 2010 Share Posted December 28, 2010 Softmod a Wii? DON'T PAY Just goto http://wiibrew.org keep the wii and install homebrew and emulators Yeah don't pay for it. Bannerbomb, and get Pimp Your Wii. Only two things you need to have a fully patched Wii. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
seanhq Posted December 28, 2010 Share Posted December 28, 2010 Anyway, still for sale.. here's pics.. sorry I fingerprinted it.. smudges easy ... and just as easy to wipe it off before you take pictures and would probably help the sale making it look like new and not all used. Just sayin' 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yuppicide Posted December 29, 2010 Author Share Posted December 29, 2010 Yep. I know. I had stated I was putting it all back in the box to take pictures, which I did. Anyway, I spoke with the lady at work.. she said to speak with my Mom.. she'll understand. I finally did. I'm getting the $158 set of pots and pans I want, plus a $225 video card for my computer.
