    I would smash them into tiny bits and throw them into a five-gallon bucket and stir them around in hopes that they would form a decent gaming console. JK

    I guess it depends on your needs. If you dont need the $ I would hold on to em till Christmas.

    eh... i dunno, they're pretty much available anywhere you go now...but, people lose their minds around xmas time and buy everything in sight... so yeah, you might wanna wait 'til then to unload them.

    IF E3 goes Nintendo this year, hold.
    If Nintendo bombs terribly, I'd sell. At the moment the fall and winter lineup for the wii is kinda lacking.

    Nintendo will not bomb. I don't know what sales are like now, but during Christmas last year weren't there more sales of Wii's than 360's and PS3's combined?

    Oh the Wii is doing great again at the moment thanks in large part to the Wii fit, but keep in mind it's july and E3 is right around the corner. Thinking holiday release dates there's really nothing of shock or mario caliber that is coming out at the moment. If Nintendo has a great release forcast for the winter holidays it's really worth hanging onto that wii, because it's value will climb.

    If there's not much shown at E3 for good games, could be better to see your wii for a small profit while Wii Fit is pushing the demand for the console up.

    As for the Wii being a 'fad' it's been out for longer then a year and since the day of it's release, its still the number 1 fastest selling console of all time. Even the month GTA 4 was released, the wii outsold both the 360 and the PS3. Nintendo sure prints money.
