anyone else buying the wii and just selling it on ebay?

i'm kind of debating whether or not if i should do it.


More of the PS3 than Wii.. So I doubt anyone would be doing that since there will be enough (kind of) for the demand of Wiis..

Did anyone play the Wii demos at Eb/GS? It's soo funn! Well tricky at first, but you get use to using the controllers. I played Excite Truck and it was definitely different and very sensitive.. somewhat in a buggy way. Of course yeah.. graphics aren't the best (you hear people mumble it ALL the time), but it's enjoyable. I should have preordered the retro controller too.. but whatever works! Anyone else experienced it?

i'm gonna wait to see how the gameplay goes once u get over the whole remote "gimmick" /puts up flame shield at launch i expect every1 to be praising it and wii to be king of consoles for a while. after that its the 3rd generation games that will count. 1st gen games always seem rushed, 2nd gen is polished, 3rd gen is where all the good stuff comes out.

Does the Wii require a HDTV like the Xbox 360 to play games?

nope.

If you buy the component cables you can upscale it to 480p though.

Wow and people thought I was a nerd for remembering it lol. Happy Birthday to the man who started my gaming life.

And Tony, you probably can get a Wii without preordering.. might have to wait, but at least you should get one.

I'm psyched there will be a midnight launch for Zelda and Wii for the Gamestops I go to. I cannot WAIT.

wii will have a good holiday season, especially with zelda as a launch title. that alone is worth the purchase of wii imo. red steel...ehh..i dont know i heard its a hit or miss. ill probably get one at target since id rather get drunk on saturday night instead of waiting in line in the blistering cold

Nintendo should've had Mario to fall back on if they intended to release Mario 128 which never appeared on the GCN. I'm still waiting on a 2-player side scroller Mario videogame, shame it hasn't happened in decades. wink.gif Anyone by the way picking up a Wii at midnight?
