CoasterFanatic Posted February 8, 2007 Share Posted February 8, 2007 Personally, I always thought of impulse buy as small ticket items such as peanuts, gum, pocket sanitizer. You know ... the things right by the register that you buy on a whim before checking out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Masked_Maverick Posted February 8, 2007 Share Posted February 8, 2007 I think next time I am at Best Buy I will "impulsivley" buy Warioware, Red Steel, Rayman and Elebits and maybe excite truck I am kinda jonesing for a Wii racing game anyway. Anyone know how Tony Hawk is? I'd like to get it but I am afraid it might suck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sir Clinksalot Posted February 9, 2007 Share Posted February 9, 2007 ^ I'd pass on Tony Hawk. Honestly, ExciteTruck is 100 times better. All the cool stuff about the tony hawk games is gone and it's pretty much like a racing game ... but on a skateboard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CoasterFanatic Posted February 9, 2007 Share Posted February 9, 2007 For those that are interested, Super Mario World (SNES) came out this past week. Â // we want Super Metroid dammit! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Masked_Maverick Posted February 9, 2007 Share Posted February 9, 2007 ^^ That's a shame Tony Hawk could of been something special on the Wii. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stingrock23 Posted February 10, 2007 Share Posted February 10, 2007 I'm still waiting for Contra from NES to come out. I downloaded Contra 3 for SNES, but it's just not the same Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sir Clinksalot Posted February 10, 2007 Share Posted February 10, 2007 ^ Wonder if the "Code" will still work on Contra ... and the other games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BorisTF Posted February 10, 2007 Share Posted February 10, 2007 ^ Wonder if the "Code" will still work on Contra ... and the other games.The games are direct emulations, the classic up, down, left, right START+A works on sonic, so i see no reason why that one wouldn't...

Masked_Maverick Posted February 10, 2007 Share Posted February 10, 2007 Is it too much to hope for some of the old Game Boy/GBC/GBA games? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shavethewhales Posted February 10, 2007 Share Posted February 10, 2007 Ah man, today I picked up my wii-mote only to find it not working. After changing the batteries and re-syncing several times, it still isn't working. Anyone else had this happen? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
onewheeled999 Posted February 10, 2007 Share Posted February 10, 2007 I found two Classic Controllers at Circuit City yesterday. I'm not sure if these are rare or not, but i didn't buy them. No wii yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Homer Posted February 10, 2007 Share Posted February 10, 2007 I was *SO* close to a Wii today. Â I waltzed in to my local EB as usual on my break and noticed there were black DS lites on the shelf. I was hoping by some slim margin there would be one Wii left or something. Â There wasn't . Here's hoping that Monday has a shipment at my local EB!

pvcoasterguy Posted February 11, 2007 Share Posted February 11, 2007 Despite our area's population, the stores here get very few Wiis. So, I decided to just try the internet. Â There are two different bundles for sale on http://www.gamestop.com. They are marked as 'Pre-Sell--Ships on Feb. 28'. I bought one, as the chances of getting one here are very, very slim. To my suprise, it shipped on Feburary 9, two days after I had purchased it. I was SO happy! Â The bundles contain a Wii system, an extra Wiimote, and an extra Nunchuk, four games (dependent on which bundle you choose), and a memory card. There really isn't much of a discount for buying them all together, but you do get everything you need. If you're having a great deal of trouble finding one, and are willing to buy a couple of things together, these bundles are well worth it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Angry_Gumball Posted February 11, 2007 Share Posted February 11, 2007 All I ever find are Classic Controllers...we've got an over abundance of them. It's weird...I have 3 nunchuks, and my 3rd one's still unopened. Probably because I'm waiting for the opportunity for all of us to get playing again when we have time to unwind and just play some games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Masked_Maverick Posted February 11, 2007 Share Posted February 11, 2007 I have seen every Wii accessory around here except for the Points Cards which ticks me off becasue I want to download some of the classic games and I have no credit or debit cards.

Angry_Gumball Posted February 11, 2007 Share Posted February 11, 2007 so this isn't quite an original idea as I found this on Ninty's forums...but I made my own variations of this...which could be very intersting when it comes to coasters. Please note that these are Cell phone pix as I'm too lazy to grab my camera (And I actually like my Cell's (Razr V3xx's) cam. Amyway, enjoy! And I hope to see some of your creative ideas. (In a dazed voice) "It's through the fences...." "Ow...that was a rough spot!" Wii!!11! Proper Wiimote usage demonstration. (Even the Wiimote uses the straps properly...) Operation Double-A So the Wii can play NDS games... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

X-L-R-8 Posted February 12, 2007 Share Posted February 12, 2007 ^ You're absolutely right. Using a theme park analogy, PS3 is like building the next great B&M multi-looper. You'll have seen all the elements before, but this time a little bigger, a little longer, and a little faster. Where the Wii is like creating something unique and cool, like "Winjas." Not the tallest, not the fastest, but OMG it's so cool!!!!  --Robb    activision helped develop wii? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Angry_Gumball Posted February 12, 2007 Share Posted February 12, 2007 ^They made games for the Wii, in which they needed a Wii dev kit to develop the game and test things out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
onewheeled999 Posted February 14, 2007 Share Posted February 14, 2007 Yeah, This isn't really about the Wii, but it's Nintendo: I got out my dad's old NES two days ago. Classic Nintendo, such as Duck Hunt and Top Gun. Awesome. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DeliriumTrigger Posted February 14, 2007 Share Posted February 14, 2007 For those who didn't get the shiny blue light...there's a new (free) Wii channel available now, the "Everybody Votes" channel. Â Run a system update and then go download through the Wii Shop channel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Angry_Gumball Posted February 14, 2007 Share Posted February 14, 2007 There's only like 3 polls to vote on so far...too bad we couldn't do more options to pick from...so we could do a 'which coaster manufacturer is better' poll. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
