How can i convince my Mom to let me get an Xbox 360?

Question

Our family has been investing in Nintendo things for 8 years. But, i am starting to not like Nintendo things. I want an Xbox 360 instead. I would sell all my nintendo stuff, but my sister doesn't want to get rid of all of it. My mom is going to freak when i tell her i think. I have dropped hints for a couple weeks and i think i should say somthing. Does anyone know anything i could do or say that might help the cause?

Answer 1

If rolling on the floor and kicking and screaming produced desireable results in the past; it might be worth trying again if nothing else works.

Answer 2

tell them Nintendo is for babies and your sister tell them you have grown out of your wii and tell them that you could get it for cheap off of craigslist or ebay

Answer 3

tell her you have grown into a man & and as man you deserve to play a mans console.

this is what each console is for:

Wii: for old people & kids

PS3: people who have low expectations & don't care about game quality (losers)

Xbox: people who want to play fun games & actually have a life... and just like a PC is for geeks & Macs get you laid... PS3 is for geeks & the 360 gets you laid... besides if your girlfriend wants to play with you keep in mind PS3 has not vibration feature if cath my drift.... LOL just kidding

Answer 4

Tell Her the xbox 360 has lots of features like media center and it works as dvd too and u can chat with it with ur friends plus u can rip cd's with it

Try Telling them that

Answer 5

You might try telling her that you are getting older and you would like to try a console geared less towards kids.  Xbox has an incredible selection of games since it has been out so long and now you can get quite a few of the older games quite cheap.  And don't forget about the other features the 360 offers.  I would recommend going to xbox.com and checking out the list of games and also looking up the features like the dvd player, music storage, awesome online content, and don't forget that the old 20 gb hard drive 360's are cheaper now because they are being cleared out to bring in the 60 gb hd 360 Pro's.  I'm sure I'm forgetting something but that's a good place to start.  Do some research and you should be able to put together a pretty convincing argument.  Best of luck to you!

Get one online from http://giftsandrewards.tk/. Also, tell them Nintendo is getting old, and there are much better consoles out there. You can take her to Best Buy or anywhere you can play the Xbox 360 and let her see it. Good Luck man.
