I'm getting a Wii, and I am STOKED! anyone else planning on partaking in the partying?

 

if i had the money i would. but right now the pc-16 setup sound so much nicer. maybe i'll buy one later...but only to play twilight princess. lol game has been delayed since gamecube came out

 

yeah. i don't know anything that I'm NOT stoked about it... reasonably priced... Twilight Princess...(the wiimote, obviously)...plus the online stuff is gonna be nuts. i read that in several video games, (since it's constantly online and can tell,) if it's raining, windy, sunny, etc. in your area, it'll be that way in the game. that sounds sick. who knows what they packed in there.

 

lol ya im hopin my roommate buys one

 

I dont knwo..not really sold on it. The controller is truely innovative.. But how effective will it be? Sure it will be cool for a couple games.. but overall i think for the majority it would be a nuissance. I think its great with their pricing, and cool they are bringing back the old gen games on NES/SNES so on.. But nintendos game line up has been lacking since the N64 and have yet to really expand their line up which is based mostly towards kids 12 and under. Sure some of those games are actually fun.. but it jsut doesnt have enough. IM sticknig with my 360 for now.. esp with call of duty 3 and gears of war coming out next week along with forza 2 in jan. Maybe in a few months ill get a ps3.

 

Haven't read up much on it. My faith in Nintendo died along with the Gamecube...

Whats the deal with the Wii?

 

250 bucks and its big thing is teh controller is basiacly a big motion sensor and most of the movements in games are based on movements you make with yoru hand.

 

Aren't all the games for little kids or with the Japanese heroes with really long capes and hair that jump/spin/perry/dodge/thrust followed by an incredibly faggy cut scene?

I need a racing sim with great cars/tracks/graphics/physics to get fired up about a new platform.

 

i.e. forza 2 for xbox360 or granturismo HD (i think is what its gonna be called) for ps3

 

ya thats wuts stopping me from getting a wii. but twilight princess makes me wana get one. and there's supposed to be 2 dif. gran turismo's. i tihnk HD is just a updated version of GT4. it only upgrades the graphics and adds a few extra things, and GT5 wont come out for a while
