I had my doubts about buying 360. I thought, there not many games I want, and Is it worth it. I ended up buying it, new games came out, and I loved it. Maybe don't buy it right away, wait for some games you see are cool, then get it. Unless you want Zelda to hold you off until better games are released.

Eh. I'm sure I'll play Zelda and all doubt will go. But until then I'm unsure about whether or not this great console will do what I'm expecting.

Needed a little rant.
Welsh, I feel the EXACT same way. A few weeks ago, I was uber pumped up about the release of the wii, but after seeing it at Best Buy, and reading reviews, I just think I may have to hold off for a long time. At least until i start hearing better things about it. I haven't been a fan of nintendo systems since really the original NES. I jumped on the Genesis bandwagon, than PSone, than the PS2, and now I'm a 360 junkie. I've never even played a gamecube... Maybe, my opinion is a little marred by that, but I still don't feel the excitement about the Wii, like I did just a few weeks ago.

Five Reasons why the Wii Will Disappoint

Gamedaily bravely battles all the positive media surrounding the Wii, citing five possible reasons as to why it could fall flat on its buttocks. Lack of loyal customers from GC, price advantage will erode and of course the inferior graphics.

Five reasons for Wii to fail

- Inferior graphics
- Lack of software support
- Low levels of brand loyalty from GC owners
- Price advantage will erode
- Wii remote is clumsy at times
Hmm, there seems to be truth in these points.

Thing is, I need Zelda NOW. I can't wait. I know that game will be awesome no matter what.

Anything after that, is unclear at this point at time.
