Have you ever thought about trying to buy a Nintendo Wii for your kids as a Christmas present? Then you might want to take advantage of the new price drop this year. Nintendo has lowered its outrageous $250 price to a much more affordable $199 ticket, so it's a much more affordable option as a present in a bad economy than it was even last year. But you'll want to decide quickly, as they will be running out of stock soon. Wii's have a tendency to do that!
So is the Wii a good value for the new $199 price tag? As a matter of fact, it definitely is. Instead of just buying a PS3 for the kids, and then having to buy a $60 game to go with it, several games come with the Wii. Plus, you can get into it with your whole body, not just by sitting on your duff holding a game controller and getting carpal tunnel.
1. Immediately start playing games with the Wii: Instead of waiting around until you can scrape together enough money to buy a $60 game to play in your Wii, you can take advantage of the free Wii Sports games that come with the Wii console. Have a ball with golf, tennis, bowling, baseball, and boxing without ever having to buy another game if you don't want to.
2. Get rid of that belly fat while you play Wii: Wii not only has specific games for working out, the Wii Sports that come with the console will give you enough of a workout to qualify as a real training session. See for yourself how much each round of bowling makes you work out like you were on a treadmill. You don't even need that gym membership anymore!
3. Have fun with several players at once: Don't sit around and wait your turn while everyone else has all the fun. With just a few extra remotes, you can turn your Wii into a party machine with everyone playing all at once. Play against each other or as a team with the Wii Sports games for even more fun together.
There's no way you'll be disappointed when you buy a Nintendo Wii. From free games to the health benefits of playing the Wii, there's so many possibilities to experience that you won't get from any other game console.
