Wow, I'm actually going to get a Wii.
« on: September 16, 2006, 07:49:25 pm »
"+1 for the creativity, but FUCK THE WHAT, motion sensorism?!?!?!?"

~Sorrowful, 4AM


I didn't really feel the Wii. I wasn't into standing up at night and swinging my arm around like a madman.

Mom: *opens door* ...What... wha.... what are you doing?!
Ray: C'MON C'MON DO THE STUPID MOVE! *flailing arms like mad*
(in game Link: "Shiiiyaaaaaaaaa!")
Mom: "...Wow, games = wtf"

I was originally going to go for the PS3, but I'll let the first wave (with the bugs) go by. Also, I don't even have the fucking cash for it. Haha.
I'll go Wii for now. For Twilight Princess (NO to the NGC version) and Smash Brawl (I collect any game I can with MGS whispered into it). Etc etc.

You can apparently use your computer screen for some gaming as well, so that'd be cool. I don't have to turn around to play my games anymore. xD

Then you've got online and the Virtual Console. I already know what I'm gonna download (Contra, TMNT 2 TAG, OoT, stuff like that... OMG GOLDENEYE), so that's kinda cool, haha.

Then when the time comes I'll get myself a PS3.


Is anyone else here thinking about getting a Wii?
Decent console for a cheap price, as opposed to the "We're loltaculously confident. 2 mil consoles at 600 bitches! oopswateomgnoes 400 000 unitz onleh =[" shit. Haha.

Say what!

What about Ocarina of Time? Super Smash? Haha.

Haha, Keenon. I'll Wii up with you guys but once I get a chance, I'll be hopping onto the PS3 train. xD

This is just some temporary CTF team. xD

You shall be left in the dust.


Unfortunately, "RAYZR" as you call yourself now U_U; you may be disappointeda bout Goldeneye.  You see... ever since Rareware went their separate ways and M$ bought them out, Microsoft got with the purchase all of Rare's games (except the stuff that was nintendo-owned like donkey kong and starfox)

so basically everything Rare will not be on the virtual console, thanks to Microsoft -- except stuff like Donkey Kong and Star Fox (meh)

All the new-gen consoles have wireless controllers (of course, you can still use cords if you want for the PS3 and X360. Not sure about the Wii though, I think it's full wireless, save for the NGC controllers if you wanna play with those)

Thats 400,000 units worldwide.  Half to Japan, half to USA supposedly.  If you live in Europe, forget about it - you're not seeing a PS3 until next year.  There were more 360s in the NA market last year than there will be PS3s this year, and we all know how poorly that went.  Good luck trying to find a PS3 for under 1,000.

Nintendo says they'll have 2 million Wiis by Christmas.  Given the lackluster sales of GC in Japan, over half of those will be in NA I bet.  (Plus it comes with a game; good job Big N.)

I hate to say it, but I won't be buying a PS3, because I think they are ripping us off. Out of spite and personal interest, I'll be buying a Wii and a 360 eventually.

But the PS3 has hurt me...Why PS3 ;___;

PS3 gets downvoted, mainly for mentioning both "historical battles" and "Giant enemy crabs" in a release for the same game.
Oh, little ice cream friends, Thog delay his boredom-driven rampage only for you.

I hear Wii will be compatible with Gamecube controllers, so that's my system of choice right now. No need to buy 4 of the new remotes; we can play games like Marvel Ultimate Alliance 4-player right off using the Gamecube ones I own.  Smash Bros and Zelda will not be appearing in my line-up of Wii games, as I'm thoroughly tired of the series and their fanbases. Marvel Ultimate Alliance, Sonic Wildfire, and Mario Galaxy are the only games that have my interest at this time.

Bravery is better than a faint heart for a man seeking to put his nose out of doors. My fate and the number of my days has already been decided.

JG: Yeah I know.
My cousin's friend works at Sony and gets everything half price.

I won't have any trouble at all finding a PS3.

I think the greatest thing that's influenced me as far as what system to purchase is a quote I read in a gaming magazine that said that no one's going to buy a PS3 because you can buy an X-box 360 and a Nintendo Wii for the price of one.

Last I checked, Wii was speculated to be $200 at launch.  I already have a powerful computer, so I don't really care how graphics intensive 360 or PS3's graphics are going to be because I'll always have access to games with better graphics on the PC.  That's not even considering how many games are just going to be ports too.

I'll be getting a Wii, if not to try out the controller then to play SNES games on its virtual console.  That oughta clear up some guilt from downloading so many ROMs.

i'm torn between asking for a Wii for Christmas, or a new computer...  i could use the computer a LOT more, but i'm thinking it'll cost around $2,500 if i do (compared to the Wii's cost of $250, i think), and my folks don't really have that kind of money to spend with all my college fees and stuff...  >_<;

Tetsaru, we need to talk. 2500 on a computer? That's ridiculous. Yeah, if you buy it from Worst Buy or Circuit Shitty. PM me and I'll help hook you up.

NIGGA SAYS WHAT!?  Yous a commie.

i recently spent 7,000 on an alienware alx optimized for performance. it crashes all the time. dont buy from alienware.

Wish you would have told us before you... ugh... spend 7000... that's USD, right?  Wow, man, I'm sorry for you.
Yeah, I think a lot of us could have told you don't buy from Alienware, LEAST of all after they were bought out by... who was it again, Dell?

Anyways, you can build your own computer for roughly $1500, at most $2000.  And I mean top of the line.  Just need to know where to get the best prices.  And when I say $2000 I'm meaning like you're an antsy mofo who has to buy exact top of the line spec graphics card and cpus and shit.

No. Zelda is tired and old.
