Last I saw, the wii console was still $249. at Micro Center. They’re online, if you don’t have one in your city.

Hi Danny,

Selling the other one for a quick profit is a great way to reduce your cost. I have a friend who did the same thing. My goal was to let people know that when you add up everything, it is much more than the $250 for the console. You need a few games and accessories to truly tap its potential.

I bought my Wii at $249 retail price. I actually bought two at the same time and resold the other at $350 brining my cost to $149. After factoring in resale value after I get tired of it…Say $100, my cost to own it is only $49 plus an additional controller and games. Say I keep it for 5-7 years it comes out to a few bucks a month.

For every toy that you buy, there is a smarter way to do it if you get creative. Games and accessories can be purchased used and they can also be resold when you get tired of them. The depreciation you suffer is simply a cost for that entertainment.

I went by the prices I found on Amazon.com because that is something everyone can go by across the US. As far as an investment goes – if you can turn it and make some money, more power to you! I have a feeling that in a few months they will be very easy to find though, so I would sell it soon!
