okay, first off it's launch time. Usually systems only have between half a dozen and twenty games at launch; the Wii has 62. Secondly, there are several good games out right now: Zelda, WiiSports, MonkeyBall, RedSteel, DragonballZ, NFL '07, heck even Trauma Center is a kick.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

And soon to come? NFS, Metroid Prime 3, and let's not forget Super Smash Brothers Brawl :D

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Yea, to me, those games you listed are all worthless, lol. But like I said, that's just *to me*. In my eyes, the Wii just has a punch of kiddie-styled games and they're pumping out more, which is lame.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I played RedSteel, it was pretty bad, lol.

 

 

 

Making it what, kiddy? Or you just couldn't get adjusted to the new style of controls and therefore decided it was just bad?

New consoles are way too expensive! i would rather wait till the demand goes down and they start selling for cheap..

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

250 isn't that expensive, considering so many electronics sell for so much more. Even psp was sold for around that much. It's only a little more than a regular ds.

Lol, does 'launch' mean anything to you?

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Wii had Zelda on launch which is a flagship title. Xbox 360's didn't have any til Gears. A year AFTER it launched. I don't know when the games (MGS, GoW, Devil May Cry, FFXIII) are coming out for the PS3.

No wii for me...

 

 

 

well i officially hate my mother....shes got this new vendetta against me my sister and dad because we dont do 'anything around the house', apart from always washing what we use and laying the table etc...

 

 

 

And so she wants to leave home, and when we try to talk with her she screams at us to leave her alone. she is the most difficult person in the world....

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

What has that got to do with the Wii?

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I don't think his moms going to buy him one now. :lol:

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

actually id already bought it with my own savings, she was just going to go to York to pick it up (30 mins drive from house). She just refused to go to york to get it

 

 

 

BUT GOOD NEWS

 

 

 

My dad stuck up for me, proving i do do a lot around the house and so she gave in and now we're all cool again, so all afternoon ive had a great console and good family.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Btw, if you havent already got zelda, get it. The bit after the guy throws rocks at the bee hive is worth the 40 pounds in itself.

If I don't get one next wednesday after youth group I think I'm probably going to stop looking since it wastes so much gas >.<

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Yep, I've wasted about $20 of gas so far, and about 5 hours of my time. I'm going to get to the stores around 7:00 Sunday morning, since they open at 10:00 that will be three hours early. If I can't get one then I will probably also stop looking.

And then Christmas rush is right around the corner for everyone who before didn't have a reason to get a Wii :(

Heres something interesting, you can use the wiimote as a controller for laptops/pcs. But I'm not sure the ir positioning thing works, only the motion sensoring.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Heres playing half life

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Heres one playing a racing game.

We probably should get a new thread for this(unless I missed it?), but anyways, for all you wii owners, the forecast channel is out now. And don't miss the awesome globe feature. You can spin it around and zoom in and out and everything. :P

Man, first night was awesome. We invited some friends, and everybody just started playing. No getting used to or something, everything just went by itself. Did a quick look into Zelda, and the controls are pretty great. It's really easy. Although I'm having some trouble getting the fish. I don't realy get it, I'm afraid. :P Ah well, it will just take some practice. Got three days off for christmas, so that's when I'm going to do some serious Zelda. :D Boxing is my favorite on wii sports btw.

I had the same trouble with the fish. I've never been fishing before, so how was I supposed to know it was done like that? I'm still getting used to shaking the controller in a zelda game. Boxing's one of my favorite too although I'm not that great at it.
