    ... go shopping tomorrow and buy the nintendo wii?

    I have always wanted a wii. I got the dole back payed a couple of weeks last week, so i have the money now.

    I just can't decide as its gone down in price to €140 euro but part of me thinks i should be sensible and put it towards college in september.

    Im already bored and i have about 10 more weeks of holidays left so it'll give me something to do.

    Should i buy the wii? 10 votes

    Go for it.

    Super Mario Galaxy will teach you more than college ever could and next week's dole money will pay for food.

    Sorted OP.

    Go for it HLW! If you have nothing better to spend it on then do it otherwise, no!

    Do what this guy says... Sink a banana its far cheaper than a Wii.

    But if you can't afford the Kinetic then get the Wii.

    If you do, get Super Paper Mario. It's excellent, sort of a platformer/RPG hybrid with a couple of twists. Doesn't necessarily exploit all of the features of the Wii, but a great game is a great game.

    Ya, you should be ashamed of yourself OP, but the good news is you can be ashamed of yourself and play the Wii at the same time.

    Also "mad Wii skillz" looks great on a CV.
