Wii!

Want to know about a game? Should we buy that new upcoming release? Post your thoughts on new games and ones you have...so others can know whether to buy it or not! All non-SWBF, non-modding topics should go here.

Dunno. Future Shop will be opening at 10:00am this Sunday, so... I'll prolly just get there at like 9:30am and see if I can get it. Hopefully. Something tells me that they'll be sold out before I can get one.
Hopefully not :? I don't think my parents would let me camp out...

Yeah, I'm camping out for it with a bunch of friends, not really sure if I'm going to get a launch game seeing as it's backwards compatible. If I do it'll be Twilight Princess. One of my friends is going to go for the candy shelf and pick up a box of Junior Mints and scream: "This is what I waited 12 hours for!" :P

Exactly :) I'm thinking I'll be getting over $100... Maybe $120 if I'm lucky. And that way, the Wii will only cost about $140 for me. :)

Good plan, no?

I'll get a Wii as soon the price drops a little and more good games like Metroid Prime 3 come out.

Yeah. Actually, I had the same thoughts. Though, I wanted a computer, not a laptop. I really want to play LAN SWBF2 :) I find that'd be fun :)
Anyways, I MIGHT get my Wii today. It' already 12:40 and prolly all the Wii's are sold out, but I might try sometime today...

My only concern with the laptop is that its keyboard is sticky and the buttons feel like they are really stuck and not loose as keyboards.

With flash or no flash? I hope Nintendo realizes that if people like their games, then they should be able to allow players to take pictures or link them straight to PCs (USB connection?) to make videos. (Not that IT HAS to be similar to Sony and Microsoft).

Well, after a 26 hour wait with 22 degrees (Farenheit), I have the Nintendo Wii. The Best Buy I went to had 87 units, more than enough for 65 people. Most people there brought their DS, so we all played Mario Kart (Download Play) most of the night (I got stuck as the pink shyguy :P ). I brought some poorly translated games with me, so at two o'clock all I had to do was read the lines from it and people would laugh, quote, "I recorded seriously on the report!" I had the third ticket and I was the first out of the store, played Melee on the Wii when I got home and just crashed, woke up one hour ago :lol:
