onewheeled999 Posted November 30, 2007 Share Posted November 30, 2007 If you like Super Mario Bros., try Super Paper Mario. It's got the same good sidescrolling action with puzzles, some RPG elements, and it's overall just an awesome game. Really funny, too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kraken613 Posted December 1, 2007 Share Posted December 1, 2007 Get Zack and Wiki: Quest for Babaros Treasure! That game rocks and it is so hard it really feels rewarding to get through a puzzle! Dont forget about Zelda Twilight Princess and Metriod Prime 3! Also get the Wii Zapper! Its $20 and comes with Links Crosbow training its totally worth it!

ginzo Posted December 1, 2007 Share Posted December 1, 2007 I played Super Mario Galaxy for 4 hours today. I never play games for that long. It's such an amazing game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jackskellington101 Posted December 1, 2007 Share Posted December 1, 2007 Ok I just got our first Wii ordered today on amazon for my g/f for Christmas and figured you guys seem to love it so I have a couple of questions? (I still have not played one, kind of Halo guy, sorry) Wifi built in? Or do I need an adaptor for my wireless network? Also can you link up the DS with the Wii? Wi-fi is built in, just set up and go. There's only a few instances in which you can connect your DS to the Wii. The only one that comes to mind is Pokemon Battle Revolution. Good starter games for someone who loves the Super Mario Bro’s era? I have been looking at the games and have no idea what might even be decent? Well, go to Virtual Console and download Super Mario Bros. I'd personally jump for Super Mario Bros. 3, but that's just me. If you want a feel of that classic feeling, I'd also suggest Super Paper Mario. It's a fun little twist on the formula. Super Mario Galaxy is a good start though, so you made a great buy there. If you're a Halo guy, I'd also suggest Metroid Prime 3 to see the Wii twist on a first person shooter. What accessories should I just go ahead and buy, ones really used or needed that do not come with the base model? I would suggest another nunchuck to go with the remote coming with Wii Play. If you don't have a GameCube, or any Gamecube controllers lying around, I would suggest trying to find a Gamecube Wavebird because they're better than the Wii Classic Controllers. Hope that's helpful! Stuart Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
raptorcrew2002 Posted December 3, 2007 Share Posted December 3, 2007 Thanks for the heads up. Very much appreciated. I went ahead and canceled the order for the Wii Play, and ordered just an extra remote and nunchuck “good call on that one didn’t even think of the nunchuck just saw the extra remote and thought that made sense.” That’s really cool everything is basically already built in. I was expecting the Wifi to be like an HD ready tv.. Cool. I did go and get her the Paper Mario, and just a point’s card because I know she is going to want the older NES games. The rest she can figure out. Most important was making sure we had everything needed for playing it on Christmas morning. Thanks again for your replies.

jaap Posted December 3, 2007 Share Posted December 3, 2007 .I was thinking about buying a console since playstation 1 was the last one I had. Was offcourse thinking about a Wii but really wanted to play one before I bought one. Finally got to play the Wii at a friends house last thursday evening. And have to say me and my girlfriend where blown away. I bought one right next day. I was really lucky to find one because december 5th is "sinterklaas" in the netherland which is like the dutch santa claus, finally found a "bart smit"which had some in stock but they where selling like hot cakes. I was 10 minutes in the store and I bought 1 and 2 others bought 1. The really problem now is finding a second wiimote, my friend has one in back order for 2 months. I am really looking forward to the moment mario kart wii releases. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Erik Johnson Posted December 10, 2007 Share Posted December 10, 2007 I thought this was cool. Oh yeah, I also agree that Mario Galaxy is simply amazing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

darklingscribe Posted December 22, 2007 Share Posted December 22, 2007 This guy is doing some amazing things with the Wii system: http://www.cs.cmu.edu/~johnny/projects/wii/ I really hope video game makers are taking note, especially the head tracking stuff.

astroworldfan1 Posted December 22, 2007 Share Posted December 22, 2007 I really want one but they are so hard to find. I've looked in Wal-Mart, Target, K-Mart and at other places to! Dang sold out signs!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kraken613 Posted December 22, 2007 Share Posted December 22, 2007 If you really want one look in the ads in the paper on Sundays. If it says they will have them try to get there as early as possible. There was a really big shipment last Sunday should of tried then. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chmilo24 Posted December 22, 2007 Share Posted December 22, 2007 Try going to a store early on Saturday or Sunday, that is when they get there shipments in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

the sound Posted December 23, 2007 Share Posted December 23, 2007 Apparently Wii's have sold out here as well, which kind of surprises me, as i didn't think they were doing that well down here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

the sound Posted December 25, 2007 Share Posted December 25, 2007 I got Guitar Hero 3 this morning (It's already Christmas here!). It absolutely rocks, and i am loving it too bits. However, at the moment (I have nearly already finished the 4th level) it is a little to easy, but from what i have read, it gets a lot harder. Is this true, or not?

Morcar Posted December 25, 2007 Share Posted December 25, 2007 Had one of these fab items for a few months here. (Damn hard to get hold of one here in the UK). Love Zelda, Love Exite Truck, Love Wario. By the way Rob looks like he's playing Warios (page 28) with the Wiimote on the end of his nose . Having endless problems getting 'on-line' casue of my provider. Looking forward to downloading old games when I get this sorted out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SharkTums Posted December 25, 2007 Share Posted December 25, 2007 WiiPlay might not be the best game ever, but it's damn fun when you play against a friend! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kraken613 Posted December 25, 2007 Share Posted December 25, 2007 The only game I play on WiiPlay is the shooting range. Really the only reason I got WiiPlay is to get a controller because they were still hard to find back then. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheRapidsNerd Posted December 26, 2007 Share Posted December 26, 2007 Had a chance to play Wii for only the second time a week or so ago. The boxing game is really fun. I keep hoping for version of Animal Crack, er Crossing that will use more of the Wii's functions, kinda like Zelda. Even the sling bag thing for the Wii is pretty cool. Anybody play Carnival Games and how is it? "Virtual" SkiBall looks fun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kraken613 Posted December 26, 2007 Share Posted December 26, 2007 Dont get Carnival Games! Its a stupid mini games set. Play real games like Zelda, Mario, or Metriod! Those games ae like peices of fine art! I got 3 Wii Point Cards for Christmas. I downloaded all the games I wanted and have officially filled the internal 512mb. Nintendo please give me a harddrive! Please! Or the ability to play games off an SD card without having to transfer it back and forth or having to delete and redownload! O Nintendo PLEASE! Its just a pain to do that!

coasterfreak101 Posted December 26, 2007 Share Posted December 26, 2007 I got Guitar Hero III and Super Mario Galaxy for Christmas. GH3 is absolutely amazing, I love games like this (DDR, GH2, etc.). Unlike the other Guitar Heros, though, I can only beat oe song on Hard. I didn't expect that big of a jump between Medium and Hard! Just gotta work on that. Galaxy is awesome. Running upside down takes some getting used to, but once you get the hand of it it's a lot of fun. It took me at least 45 minutes to get past the first galaxy, so I'm hoping it'll be one of those games that lasts for a while. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kraken613 Posted December 26, 2007 Share Posted December 26, 2007 It took me about 20 hours to beat it with 60 stars and about 35 more hours to get all 120. It gets alot harder after the initial 60 stars! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
