Wii - Barely used, maybe 100 hours.
3 Wii remotes, 2 nunchuks (sp?)
Classic remote

Games:

Wii sports (obv)
Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess
Excite Truck

All boxes, manuals, receipt, etc.

How much do I ask for? Is it a fair trade for a 360?

Im interested in one of the Wiimotes, if you're willing to part.

I'm definitely not able to part with any of it except for the whole shebang itself. I'm probably not even selling it on here, I just want to know people's opinions on what it is worth, or if it would be worth a trade for a 360.

I want one of the newer 360s though... Maybe I'm being greedy?

I think you could find an xbox 360 premium in trade for that. Seems plenty reasonable to me. eBay would also yield you quite a bit - maybe $350?

Well... Wii's just aren't as rare as they were several months ago. Or one month ago for that matter.

$250 (Wii) + $120 (3 Wiimotes) + $40 (2 nunchucks) +$20 (classic remote) + $50 (Legend of Zelda) + $50 (Excite Truck) = $530 + tax. But I'm going to say it's $470 + tax... so about $500 RETAIL value (because I think you counted the INCLUDED remote and nunchuck on your list like you included Wii Sports)

The Wii is probably worth about $200 now.... (because it's still somewhat perceived as rare). The remotes are probably $30 a piece now, and the nunchucks and classic remote $12 each or so. Games have lost half their value easily... so that makes it about $346 total.

I'd say you could probably trade it straight for an XBOX 360... but I doubt you could get a recent one... as those buying recently probably are buying for HALO 3 which just came out (and my guess is that halo might be the very reason you're thinking about this).

Honestly, you're better off selling your Wii as a set on craigslist... and then putting some money in to buy a new XBOX 360 yourself. That, or wait a month or two for those few people who are getting tired of HALO and that was all they bought it for.

Actually the Wii is still hard to get ahold of and even harder if you don't want a bundle. I think $350 is more than fair for what you have but if you decide to piece it out, dibs on Zelda if the shipping doesn't suck ass.

You got it.

I think I'll Craigslist it. I may have a family member looking to buy it for $400CAD.

Thanks for your input everyone.
