I'm afraid to show Andy my reviews of TP. XD
 
Probably about a 4.0, seeing how you've done nothing but bash it since it came out, Triffy. XD

Meh, I just think that to some people, there will never be anything that can ever top OoT. So therefore, no matter if the game really is better than OoT, they'll never admit it. Not that I'm saying TP is better...I haven't really decided yet myself. XD

And yes, Fatboy Gerstmann sucks. We all know this. XD
 
Mork, it'd be a sin for me to give any Zelda game anything below a 7.

As a game I gave it 9.3/10. But as a Zelda game I gave it 8.4/10.

You can see the full review at my LJ. Beware of spoilers

TP dissapointed me, yes. But it was still a great game and shouldn't be banished to the realm between dimensions at all.

*stalk* That entry was public? o_o I didn't even notice! But yay, my review of your review is there. :x I more or less agree with it, though you should have made your gamer review less fluffy. XD; I still think it's the best game on the Wii right now.

It is most likely the best game on Wii, considering the flood of children games the console was launched with. >>;
ExTruck and RS are worth it, too but they don't overcome Zelda, in my opinion.

And you can request your membership on the CP. Kairi... Right? >>
 
TP wasn't that great, MM owned it.
I had fun time with it, though.

One fact, Pokemon Battle Revolution, once again, sucks.
But I didn't expect much coming from GS anyway. XD
Just look at videos I posted.
I'll post more videos later.

What do you guys think of that?

Also, do you guys think I'd be able to get my hands on a Wii around mid-January? I mean without waking up really early when a new shipment comes in.
Click to expand...

Hardly surprising there. Though it does just sound like an improved EyeToy, rather than a direct competitor to the Wiimote. But, yeah, Sony would be completely lost in the gaming industry if it wasn't for them being able to "borrow" Nintendo's innovations. Wouldn't surprise me if the PSP2 came with a touch screen.
 
Well, I woke up this morning and looked over at my Wii and it was flashing blue. So I checked my messages and I had a message from Nintendo saying that the Forecast Channel was up today. So I'm downloading the update now.
 
I heard that it's really nice over at the Nintendo.com forums.

CAN'T. STOP. THINKING. ABOUT. WII.

How much longer do you guys suppose it will be sold out everywhere? Probably after the holidays, right?
 
I'm thinking January or maybe even February, Andrew. The demand's a lot greater than Nintendo expected. =/

And the Nintendo.com forums suck. Majorly. XD

And in case you guys haven't heard, Wii Play has been delayed until Feb. 12th in North America. Sucks, but I guess that makes my decision on whether to get Warioware or WP in January easier. XD
 
But it comes with the free Wiimote, Dawson. So essentially the game's only $10. XD

Here we go again with this "Andrew" business. XD

I don't go on the Nintendo forums often, but I was just bored. =P

The trial version of Opera for Wii will be released this Friday. The real version will come out in March and will be a free download until June...almost makes me wish I had a Wii. Wait, it does!

At first I thought Robo was talking to me with the "Andrew" part up there. XD

Oh my God, Andy, you're like a man possessed when it comes to this. XD I've never seen you so passionate about something (bar the Wii, obviously XD) in all the time that I've known you XD

It's the Wii, and I'm a Wii fanboy. So yea. XD
But on top of that, it's clear to see that GC doesn't like the Wii. I mean most of their reviews are a total 180 on many things. To me, if they can't review Wii games with an open mind and review it fair then they shouldn't be reviewing Wii games.

That's true, and that was one of the fears I had before reviews for TP came in. I mean OoT is such a great game that people have in their mind "No Zelda game can beat OoT" and they walk into the TP review thinking "Blah, it's not as good as OoT" where it might just be better (I haven't played TP all the way so I don't know which is better).

I'll take your game score, seeing how I'm not a Zelda fanboy, I'm a gamer so I'm happy with your game score. XD
I'd read your reviews, but I fear it might blow a few things. XD

Well, the Wii might have quite a few kiddie games on it. But at the same time you got games like DBZ, Splinter Cell, Red Steel, Call of Duty, Marvel, TP and others.
Not that I'm say any other Wii game beats out TP, because TP is the best. XD

I say wait to see if it "sucks". I mean you can't say "The game sucks" because of vids.

I remember reading something on that (or something like it) a few weeks back. No shocker, because Sony loves to take Nintendo ideas.

If you mean "I'm going to walk into a store today and buy a Wii" then I think it'll be a good long time before that happens. Here it is a month after the launch of the Wii and people are still lining up for one.
https://gonintendo.com/?p=10546
That was Sunday...
If it was me, then I'd bet on maybe March or April on a safe bet on walking in and getting one. I'm not saying you will have to wait that long. But I know it'll be sometime before we see Wiis in stock everywhere.

But yea, it's pretty good. Better then I thought it'd be, but still I'm not going to use it all that much for my weather stuff.

I think it sucks. To me I think why they're pushing it back is because of one thing, the Wiimote. They can pump the discs out of there at the speed of light (ok not really XD), but the Wiimotes on the other hand is not only in short supply but also takes longer to make. So I think it's just Nintendo giving themselves more room to make more.

Morkula said:

I'm still betting my money on Wii Play with the Wiimote costing $60, but that's just me.

Oh, and speaking of the Forecast Channel
https://gonintendo.com/?p=10679
OMG Sweet! I don't have Madden, but wow... what a way to use the channel. I was hoping they'd do something like that with the Forecast Channel and they did. Way to go Nintendo.

They pushed it back? Really? ;; I was looking forward to having it for the next LAN party in January. Sigh. I guess there will still be WW, so I should grab that and take it. XD;

This is absolutely brilliant. o_o I didn't even think of something like that! That's a really great example of how Nintendo is giving developers all kinds of new APIs to work with. That really makes me want Wifi all the more. ;;
 
¬¬ my Wii keeps screwing up its connection with my router its getting annoying, it'll connect one day, but not the next O.o
My computer did have to format it self recently, so maybe thats got something to do with it.

It is a great example of it. Now I just hope they do more with it (other then sports games). Maybe in Animal Crossing (I don't play AC games, but I think it'd be a nice touch to them games).

That doesn't sound good. Did the router work before (as in if you got a Wi-Fi DS game did it work with it)?

Look at it this way, at least you can get online. Both Abby and Aussy don't have Wi-Fi.
 
Animal Crossing would definitely be another good use, yeah. I'm sure it won't be just limited to weather, either! They could have events and giveaways in games, and I could see a rare Pokemon hopping from Wii to Wii or something, too.

Did you already talk about the straps thing? It really annoys me. :\ I can't believe what a big deal everyone is making out of it. I don't think it's too flimsy at all, and if people are being stupid enough to break it I don't see why Nintendo should be responsible. They did issue those thicker bands, which I intend to get, but last I read, someone is going to file a class-action lawsuit against them. o_o I think it's ridiculous. Nintendo knew that they might slip out of people's hands, and that's why the wrist strap was added. They took the necessary precautions.

And since the Wii is online, I don't see why Nintendo can't set up some events (big battles) where everyone can go online and battle and go up the ranking board (even if Nintendo didn't do it, I think it'd be good to have something like that on PC). Who knows what Nintendo can do down the road.

Yea, but no reason to not bring it up again (since we go all over with Nintendo things). XD
What bugs me the most is people blaming the Wii. Sure the straps should have been stronger, but at the same time they shouldn't be needed (or like in Triffy's case where he tripped and the strap prevented the Wiimote from hitting something). I mean after all it is still a controller, and it should be treated as one. Not treated as a tennis racket or a bowling ball.
And it's also stupid for people suing Nintendo for their own probs. I mean if I drop a 360 on my foot do I blame MS for making their system too heavy? It's just crazy what someone can get sued over...


I totally forgot about this. X_X
This is what went on Monday night. X-Play had "Best of 06 Awards". You should go in there and watch the vids, look at who beat out who and so on.
