Nintendo Wii - Page 2

I want to buy the Wii just for Zelda, becuase that game looks incredible. Not to mention it only costs 250$. Compared to the Xbox and the PS3, that is a great price.

Funny headline I read on CNet....

Wii + butterfingers = smashed TV

The concept of exercise is so foreign to some people that they're actually calling up a video game company and asking them what's happening to their body.

Some guy liked the Wii so much he had to get more than one:

I got one today I'm sure there are going to be some idiots that will try and sue nintendo for one thing or another. I played the sports games and didn't really have to move that much. I did get a bit of shoulder pain but guess what I stopped playing anyway I wrenched my arm on Smackdown vs Raw 2 way worse than anything I could do on a Wii.

How do you wrench your arm playing SVR 2007?

Ever since they introduced the stamina system I get owned doesn't matter who it is I get beat for a good 15 minutes before losing. Now while I am down you have to hit a button to get up and I was tapping it pretty fast for a good 20-30 minutes because I did more than one match. It happened with Day of reckoning on gamecube. It kinda sucks that's one of the reasons I hate wrestling games now. The worst is the steel cage matches.

Mmm, I see what you mean. Kinda like how the old Mario Party games made your hand sore like hell.

I say you go back to playing the No Mercy game for N64. Loved that game.

I can't even think of the last wrestling game I liked. Since I quit watching wrestling a few years ago their games have gone downhill I think. I do like wrestling games and like the storylines I just hate the stamina system. I know on day of reckoning I was in a hardcore match and I was only able to swing a chair once before I got tired and couldn't protect myself and got beat for who knows how long.

I can't even imagine how badly my hand would hurt after playing this. I need my right hand to snap the ball in football, so I can't be getting this!

I hope to get one before Christmas... I have not been luck enough to find one on the shelves yet, and I also have not seen them online (sans EBay... I am not paying triple the price for anything)

Try that site it will tell you when they get Wiis in. You should be able to find one in a few weeks they are going to get regular shipments.

I can't seem to stop playing Madden on my Wii. It's like playing a completely new game. I think the price of the Wii was worth it just for Madden alone and I haven't even put Zelda in yet.

I'm loving my Wii.

DiamondDave · November 28th, 2006, 08:27 AM

I am so anxious to actually get a hold of one... but still no luck
