Buying one at launch, missed the boat on the preorders unfortunately

I am

What kind of Nintendo fanboy would I be if I didn't

probably when the price drops. It'll be my first console purchase since the snes.

I'm waiting for the first price drop as well. My current plan is to get a Wii along with a second controller, Super Monkey Ball Blitz, and then probably some Virtual Console games - here's hoping they do Super Mario RPG. Maybe a traditional controller style shell too, I'm not really a huge fan of the Gamecube controller for old-school games.

i will probably wait until sometime after launch and christmas, but before the first price drop, so that hopefully any kinks in the system will have been ironed out by then

i'm most likely going to get one; just not right now. i want to wait for the price to go down, and for the library of games to expand a little so that there are a few choices that i can make in the way of games i like

what puts the wii apart from other consols is that it doesn't have as much powerful hardware. because of this, the wii developers must rely on gameplay as opposed to graphics and other media. that is the reason such games as cave story became so popular after release

so, i'm definately looking forward to this new consol, even though i'm more into the pc platform and emulation

voted 'when something i want comes out', even though 'first price drop' came close

The ESRB recently re-rated Mario RPG

So it's probably a go (not at launch but probably soon after!)

there's nothing that makes me want to buy any nextgen console, because the only series i'm interested probably won't leave the ps2 for a while yet

Buying the PS2 was probably one of the greatest investments of my life.

Anyways I don't know what I'm going to get, if I even get any at all.
