    Buying a Wii in 2020

    December 1, 2020 /

    Why You Might Want to Consider Buying a Wii in 2020 by zachary livingston shults In the current day, Nintendo is pushing the Nintendo Switch forwards to be the greatest console they have ever produced. Although this is true, it costs $300. This is no laughing matter; the original NES first retailed at $90, which is a third of the Switch price. The Wii launched for $250.

In the beginning, I looked up those older than me, who probably had no idea how I admired them. My peers and I compared ourselves to others and spoke poorly about our bodies.
