I think 360 and PS3 are in the purgatory that every previous gen console gets stuck in. It isn't nostalgic yet and it isn't new and flashy. Not enough time has passed to make us miss It but In 10 years it will be nostalgic and collectible and we will love it again. But right now its all about PS4 and One. Which are pretty much 360 and PS3 with better graphics in all honesty. And it doesn't help that One and PS4 are rereleasing a lot of the gems from last gen on the next gen consoles. It limits are reasons to go back.

What about the wii?

Same period, same gen yet way more games that are actually memorable and definitely raising in price big time.

PS3 And xbox 360 overall just inferior games of ps4 etc. Way less memorable unique games. Titles like the last of us or GTA will never be memorable on those inferior systems and games like journey or certain rpg's are already rising in value. Nothing will chance there aren't to many interesting titles out there anyway for these systems.

Your logic does not make any sense I highly doubt we will see a grow in prices of xbox 360 and ps3 except for the few unique titles and special CE. If it actually was the case than it should have been the same as wii wich it is not.

I somewhat agree. The same way the Xbox and PS2 really aren't rising in value like GameCube, other than some niche games. Wii was my favorite, and I think it'll definitely be the tougher console to track down in the future by a lot, as will the Wii U.

You are all over the place in your reply.  LOL.  But let's go through it.  The reason a few Wii games are rising in value is because they are Nintendo-made games which all rise in value as time passes.  This doesn't make them any more "memorable" than PS3 or 360 games.  This has been the case with Nintendo titles since the NES.

I would argue that at least on a technical level, pretty much all PS3 and 360 games are superior to Wii games.  Wii was a travesty of taking games and shoehorning crappy waggle-wand controls on them.  This had the effect of making great games play like shit. 

The value of particular games will grow for PS3 and 360 titles, the same as it has for PS1, PS2 and Xbox titles.  Don't think so?  Go try to find cheap copies of the Star Wars Xbox games.  I agree that Nintendo games hold a high value, but that doesn't mean that the library of games on PS3 and 360 are crap.  There is a reason why games like Last of Us and LittleBigPlanet have received accolades out the ass:  Because they are great games.  You can choose not to see it or ignore it, but the proof is in the pudding as they say.

I don't really like realistic games would rather watch a movie than play a game. realistic games are garbage to me. I don't care about value and if I did I would have CE of certain realistic games or certain (crappy rare games) wich are worth quite allot.

Furthermore games like the last of us or GTA and grand tourismo will always be replaced with superior versions of these kind of realistic games. Older versions are inferior and will never be played again. Why would you if there are better versions out there?

Crappy Games like little big planet are just not in the same ballpark lvl as mario or other nintendo franchise games. No offence but I don't like most of the sony mascots they are pretty bad in my opinion.

Nintendo games have inferior grapics but why would you need the same grapics if the games are not realistic. For realistic games excellent grapics are a must but for games like mario stafox etc It isn't a big deal less is needed to make things look smooth.

Sure new mario games come out but the older titles are different that it is worth it to actually play the older games. These days the older titles are even better than the newest titles and they are different. Every mario kart game is different, every smash bros game is different, every mario 3D or 2D game is different wich is the main reason why nintendo games hold their value the games are unique.

Also the controls on the wii worked perfectly fine. The button placement for games like mario galaxy were excellent. The only reason that many complain is because you sometimes have to move the controller while with a normal controller you don't

You can say what you want but in my opinion there are pretty much no real titles that stand out to me and that will not be replaced by a superior version and are actually worth to be played in the future when plenty of better versions come out.

I have to say though that the ps2 has some unique titles wich are awesome but ps3 library on the otherhand is pretty mediocre with the exception of very few titles, especially for me since I don't care about realistic games wich is the specialty of the ps3 and xbox 360.
