I got a Wii for Christmas years ago. Never used it much. The last Nintendo console I bought was a game cube. You can easily live without Nintendo. They're definitely decent games. Just not for that price.
They do fill a "good for all ages" niche that not many other AAA games do nowadays. Which makes the exorbitant pricing especially strange.
