Good morning!
Everything you said beside the cost is an assertion and not an argument.

Not designed for playing games:
>100% Netplay compatible
>More emulators for the Raspberry Pi as a whole.
>MAME, Fightcade, Playstation and DOSBOX games at full speed
>Runs many modern PC games, including OpenMW, OpenJK and Quake 3 at 90 fps+

Easier:
>It's much smaller, much more mobile and storable.
>The Raspberry Pi only needs a short SD card installation to be fully unlocked.
>Softmodding a Nintendo Wii is actually longer than setting up a Raspberry Pi 3.

Cost:
>RPi3 costs 55 dollars, while a Wii costs around 70 dollars.
>Only more expensive if you include the SCART to YUV adapter, which is not a part of the RPi3.
>Retrospectively, the SCART to YUV adapter can be used with many of your other consoles.
>The Wii, on the other hand, only uses proprietary cables and controllers.

Controller:
>The Raspberry Pi supports mouse and keyboard.
>The Gamecube controller is uncomfortable for retro games and the layout is unlike any controller ever released before.
>Plugging your controllers to another Wii controllers which need batteries isn't cheaper or easier, the much needed adapters are expensive and inconveniently connects to your WiiMote. You'll have a WiiMote hanging down your groin which looks quite awkward and dull.
>USB is the industry standard, therefore it is far more convenient and flexible. The adapters are cheaper, numerous and much more optimized.
>Also includes mouse and keyboard. The Wii only uses proprietary cable, which serve no purpose outside of the Wii.

Bonus:
>The Raspberry Pi can play high quality videos without lag, frame drops or delay, unlike the Wii. It can be used as a multimedia system as it supports ALL video codecs and file types.

Do your research and stop parroting everything you hear, stop trying to be too hip for school.
I'm trying to help you.
Now -snip- because I don't have enough characters for the reply.
