I think the forum has spoken! I would go ahead and buy the Wii. It's a great game console to burn a couple hours here and there. I would say that a PS3 or XBox360 is a better bet if you want to spend 4+ hours a day in front of the TV, but the Wii is just awesome to have some fun, stay active, and then put it down..
Thanks!
