also i remember them saying about extreme lights would effect the controller playability....
so maybe the industrial lighting in the toys r us and those places could be effecting it?
i dunno.....ill have to find a demo and try it to compare =P

[milk tea!]

I bought a PS3 after New Years but I really wanted a Wii but I heard that the controller wasn't sensitive enough from those people trying it out in Toys R Us in NYC.

Uh, you know you can adjust the sensitivity right? I think it's pretty sensitive for me..

For all those who have WiiConnect24 on, you guys SHOULD have seen a blue light illuminate from your console yesterday, and that blue light usually means that a new message arrived on your Wii. And in this case, the message talked about how you can download the new channel onto your Wii (you'll have to do a system update for the Wii, though).

Ohh so that's what it means o_o I thought it updated itself but I guess not.

[dudeman]

I remember one day when my Wii was glowing, and I got so excited and read the message, only to find that the message was Nintendo talking about the remote straps and what to do about them...

...

...As if I didn't know about that already. They should have released that notice sooner.

[aznfishyfart]

noooooooooo.....i got an email from best buy saying the realese date for brawl is pushed back to december 31
i pre-ordered it since it was coming out march 15 =(

[dudeman]

^ I'm not too surprised...especially since Brawl was stated to come out late 2007 in the first place.

Retailers often never have the right dates either (They certainly didn't for Kingdom Hearts 2).

[Velocitii]

Nevermind, found one.
So much fun.

edit: nvm i just realized you were in san diego

WHERE!!!!!!?????? i've been looking for this damn console since forever, i saw like 3 at toysrus, i didnt have money with me, so i went home to get it, came back, GONE.....i live in nyc btw, any help would be appreciated

[clee86]

Yeah, hard to find in San Diego.
I had to go to Craigslist and buy one for $275, like $10 more than what it costs retail + tax.

I'd go early to get one but they always come out on days that I have work or school or something.

Has anyone started a friend list yet?

[Apple_love]

I LOVE THE WII! im so bad at the games though. Espcially the Zelda game. urgh.. i suck at it so much. 15 hours and still havn't passed the second boss..

has anyone gotten WiiPlay?? it released monday.. it's another mini-game sports thing but i comes with a controller.. i'm just wondering if the mini-games are any good like good entertainment

its okay. There are a few games that are really fun, the shooting game is fun! Its an okay game so if you want just buy it.

[dudeman]

I've read stuff about when people beat Zelda the first time and play through it the second time, they'll take about half as long as they did the first time. In other words, because the average amount of time it takes to beat Zelda is approximately 50+ hours for most people for the first time (that's without any guide whatsoever, people), it will take at least 25+ hours to beat it the second time.

Now I didn't really believe any of that stuff and decided to just play through it the second time as fast as I could.

...And yes...it indeed does take at least half the amount of time you played through the first time. I haven't even started the sky dungeon, and already I'm at 22 hours. Not to mention the sky dungeon is one of the LONGEST dungeons in the game.

Sheesh...I guess they weren't kidding when they said that...

[revontulet]

I really want one D: everyone says is a lot of fun ;w; is it really?

[Korowa]

it all depends on what type of gamer you are.

If you like to have party games, then the Wii will definately be a blast, but if you're looking for RPGs, you're probably going up the wrong alley

[clee86]

The Wii's going to get some pretty good rpgs it looks like.

If you're looking for amazing graphics though, probably not the best system.

You could always get a wii now and wait like 2 years for a ps3 since the games will take forever to make.

[BR1TT4NYy]

i think you can find them pretty easily at blockbuster cus i saw a few and i didnt even know they sold them

and i would recommend the wifi adapter! its easy to set up

[Take Five]

i can't catch a damn fish in zelda for some idiotic reason. it takes long enough for a fish to hook on, but when i pull the remote back, it just disappears. sigh...

[taroe]

^ yeah i had trouble with that part too. it took me forever...i still don't know how to do it properly. =(

i use the Wii to go on youtube <3 but it really sucks because i have a small tv and the vid is only 3/4 of the screen. but its better than nothinG

[dudeman]

^ It really is better than nothing. I'm actually able to watch stuff like Naruto and Bleach on the TV (the subbed versions).

Anybody got the new sonic game? Whoever has it, how is it? (Without spoilers, por favor).

[Malice_Kaiser]

i can't catch a damn fish in zelda for some idiotic reason. it takes long enough for a fish to hook on, but when i pull the remote back, it just disappears. sigh...

Fishing when you're not at the actual fishing pond is a b**ch. Just make sure the bobber is completely under water before you pull out. You'll get used to it eventually (took my forever too)

[Take Five]

^yeah, i was finally able to do it. apparently i was just sitting there waiting for the screen to say "fish on!" even though i'm supposed to pull the rod up for that to happen. and i only had to hold the remote in the back position when i got a fish, but i was pulling it back over and over like a real fishing rod and it didn't work -__-

[EYJAYJAY]

not sure if anyone has mentioned it but the naruto game for wii is coming out in japan O.O looks fun

[dudeman]

^ Yeah, it does kinda look fun...and engaging.

Although we Americans won't be seeing it for the longest time...

And there's no use importing it either, since all Wiis are region-locked.

And I already have a Wii I can understand...I'm not about to buy a Japanese Wii just for a game...

Oh, woe be the circumstances...
