to wii or not to wii

that is the question. since around may, i've been excited about getting a real job so i can buy random stuff i don't really need, but kinda want. there have been two things exceptionally high on that list (really, in spots one and two):two 23" apple cinema displaysa nintendo wii well, here i am, with a job and everything, and a nice little bonus coming my way because my paychecks got a little messed up. and do i have two apple displays? no. do do i need two displays? no, but that's merely because i don't have a mac pro yet. do i need a wii? well, i'm not sure. i recently sold my 8gb iPhone so i could get a 16gb one. so i've got some more money coming my way. unfortunately, i don't have an chinese bank account, so that needs to be in the form of cash. or, maybe in the form of wii. my buddy and i went saturday to check out wiis. in china, they are unlocked, so i can buy pirated games for $1. in america, they're more like $50. the system is about the same price here, but the menus are in japanese. the games are english, but the system stuff (setting up your mii, "do you want to save?", etc) is in japanese. so what do you think? to wii, or not to wii?
