Help me decide which video game system to buy for the family. My kids are ages 4-11. We have never had a video game system. The older two are girls and have never really expressed any interest. My son wants one and the girls both say they would play it too. I would appreciate if you all would weigh in on what system to buy and why.
Playstation (version) X-box (version) Wii Wii fit Other? Keep in mind that my knowledge of video game systems was current when Atari was around. Thanks.

Wii!!!! Hands down, the best for families. A good amount of the games are family-orientated (4 players at once).
Hardcore gamers are the only ones who will appreciate the better graphics and sounds of the Xbox and the PS3. The average gamer (the other 80% of the world) could care less technical things like progressive scan, high definition, etc. Really, what 4 year old (to 12 year old) will care what the game looks? All kids want are FUN games, not beautiful, artsy, complicated games. Perfect example is the DS versus PSP. One is easy, fun, and simple. The other is big, complicated, slow, but better in technology. Which one is by far the superior one (in terms of units sold)? DS....by a gajillion. That being said, for the older people, the Wii still offers games such as Zelda, Need for Speed, Madden, FIFA, Resident Evil, Metroid, etc. *Edit All the college kids in my dorm loved the Wii because it was so simple to learn and alot of fun to play. Girls/guys, didn't matter. All had a blast. Raving Rabbids? Lol, many good nights... My aunt/uncle are in their 30's, and they love playing Guitar Hero and using their Wii Fit. My mom loves Wii Sports because she can play with little kids. My nieces and nephews love their Wiis because it so interactive (my 4 year old niece plays Resident Evil and House of the Dead ![]() This post has been edited by CAMAricer: Dec 18, 2008 - 3:40 AM -------------------- ![]() ![]() 2002 SC430 (WC) - 19" SSR Comp-H, Daizen swaybars, Sparco Demons, JDM Soarer conversion, carbon fiber spoiler, Injen intake, front strut bar, drilled/slotted Brembo rotors 1997 Celica ST (DD) - 17" ADR, ViS Zyclone CF hood, ViS CF hatch, K&N intake, Invader body kit |
