Depends on what you want. There's stuff in the Shop Channel that I would definitely consider "worth it".

um, YEAH, wii points are 'worth' it. they are necessary to buy things on the wii.

Not really....Why would you pay $5 to use something you could use on a PC, Mac, etc.

thats not the issue here...you're paying $5 for convenience.

however, the wii isnt built to be a multi-media machine. if you want to be using the internet, you'd be better using it on a machine that was built for those kind of things. the internet channel also pales in comparison to other browsers. its also heavily filtered.

Ahh thanks for the clarification, that was what I was trying to translate to Dudester.

This is yet another reason PC's > Consoles.

You can do MORE then just game on it... best is when you practice hiding games before a teacher or boss walks by, and all thats on the screen is your work.

Which is exactly what parents of young children expect from Nintendo. Woo-hoo Wii Internet Channel!

I'm actually starting to turn to PC's. I've lost all faith in the 3rd gen consoles. I've been playing the original Unreal Tournament like a fiend for the past few days.

yes, thats a HUGE edge PC's have, you can go back to the HUGE catalog great old games, and apply 32xQ anti-aliasing and 16x Antisotropy and make em beautiful.
