Wii longevity

I'm really tempted by the Wii.


So far, my wallet has been saved by no one in town ever having it in stock (apart from in bundles with games I don't want).



I've played on a friend's Wii, & was very impressed with it, bar one thing...

... the apparent lack of anything good apart from Wii Sports.


I did try Zelda, too, but really wasn't impressed. Seems to just be a port of the GameCube one, but with awkward controls. Didn't grab me & draw me in straight away like Ocarina did way back on the N64.

And as Mario & Metroid still haven't got release dates AFAIK, while Red Steel & Far Cry etc. are a bit crap from what I've heard, what else is there to play that's actually worthwhile?


Just Virtual Console games?


Is it really worth getting a Wii just for Wii Sports & the VC games?

Or does the novelty wear off quite quickly?


Does the Wii have any longevity at the moment?
