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.

I would laugh, but I've heard that one so many times, it's gotten "un-funny" :roll:

On Topic: I'm not sure if I'm going to get wii. I mean, I really like nintendo and their games, but it's a lot of money and I'm not sure if I would play it enough to be worth it. :?

EBGames in Denmark still takes preorders ^^ but not going to lol the nearset ebgames is a 2 hour drive for me lol
And I'm a 100% sure Nintendo made the analog stick. Remember the first PS controllers had no analog :P

I'm pretty sure you're right, but I'm probably confusing analog with joystick. Unless you mean the ideal. Then i agree just that PS got it out before Nintendo.
The Wii price is pretty cheap compared to hte 360 and/or PS3
Actually you can buy the Wii and the full 360 for a PS3

There should be an optional way to play with a regular game controller, or the gamecube controller is compatible with the Wii. :)

There is it's called the classic control that you plug into the Wiimote. Also the Wii has a GAmecube port (the controller and memory slots) hidden on hte side.

Yeah, that's how you play GameCube games on it. It's not like GameCube games were originally programmed to use the Wiimote :P You need the GCN controllers :)

*UPDATED*
:D Why is it that I always update with a double-post? :?
Anyways, I've added the Canadian price, release date(same as US), and a calculator for those of you that want to know how much you'll be paying with tax, and other things added (extra games, nunchucks, controllers, virtual console points, etc.)

My total Canadian (:)) cost comes to about $317. Not a bad deal.

Wow. Look at the graphics! :D

i just collapsed. Zelda is going to be insane, perhaps better than OoT me thinks :D. Even if Wii died the next day, I would get it just for the Zelda game (despite being on the GCN).

And Solid Snake has a Stinger, w00t 8)
