Too bad there are no good casual games either >_>

Money. I got a good $200 for my Wii, and it's nice to be able to buy the games I want while still having a bunch of pocket cash.

It's called a job, people. You make money at it. And what's the point of buying games if you've sold all or most of your consoles?

That's exactly why I bought a Wii (and, later, a 360) instead. MGS4 is the only reason why I would EVER buy a PS3, and no game is good enough for me to buy its system for just one game.

Besides, I don't play consoles very much anyway. When I do, it's either Brawl or Wii Fit. :P

I'm not selling my Wii, now way, but sure, I have lost a ton of their respect. It sucks that an awesome, new, and innovative system like the Wii gets this fitness/old-person/minigames crap. It just SUCKS. JKDBKDJ

Not everyone is old enough/eligible/lives anywhere near a place where they can actually get a job.

Most of the members here are in the 13-16 range, IMRC. It's difficult to work because:

A.) School.
B.) You'd have to be able to walk/bike there.
C.) It needs to have an opening.
D.) Parent's consent.
E.) Has to be somewhere that'll hire someone under 18, like McDonalds for a cashier or something.

Never heard of it. *looks it up*

Okay, so that's TWO good games. Still not worth the crazy-expensive system.

If they've lowered the PS3's price, THEN I'll think about it. (No, I do not follow gaming news regularly, so don't go around saying I've been living under a rock.)

That and there's just SO many things to WANT to buy, but just can't afford to do so until you make enough money. Plus, I wager that all but one of those titles turns out to be made available for the NEXT game console from Nintendo, due to graphical limitations.

M'aiq doubts anyone would get more than $5 a week, unless their parents spoiled them. That's two-and-a-half months to get a new game.
