The Wii is Here.

Re: The Wii is Here.

Odd problems, Squeek. Not far off from the problems I've had. Some stuff, like the Everybody Votes Channel, takes an ungodly amount of time to load. It's sporadic, though. And if something isn't loading, simply pressing A solves the problem.

For the love of God, Squeek, do not write a letter. Call customer service. Nintendo has the best phone support team I have ever interacted with ever. Five stars, no question.

Re: The Wii is Here.

As far as I know, there's no way to check inside the console for dust without opening it. The disc slot has a small rubber cover that makes looking inside very difficult. But... the purpose of that cover is to make sure dust doesn't get inside the console in the first place!

I'll just write a letter. These aren't the only problems I've been having.

Re: The Wii is Here.

WarioWare takes ages to load sometimes and Elebits does not load at all anymore.

I've heard that from a couple of people now. I'm sure you've already tried this, but have you cleaned the disks, or checked inside where you put the disks for dust build up or anything else?

As for me, mine still works fine. But I guess I should try to extend my warranty just in case.

Re: The Wii is Here.

The strap isn't too thin. I've whipped that thing around like it's a yo-yo and it's never snapped.

In other news: http://www.joystiq.com/2007/03/13/ni...d-online-play/

Basically says that third party development for online services is a go.

Edit: Ok, I think my Wii has serious problems now. I've just extended my warranty another 90 days and I'll be writing them a letter sometime in the near future.

WarioWare takes ages to load sometimes and Elebits does not load at all anymore. One of my controllers has loose buttons and something rattles inside when vibration goes off in the other.

Freakin' launch day systems =/

Re: The Wii is Here.

It's not because they're clutzes. It's because they're idiots.

The games with heavy motion sensing mention SEVERAL TIMES that the strap should be on and secured, not to let go of the controller, and to watch out for things around you.

Hence the -stupid- part. =]

And that strap, is very thin. x_X;;; but most people don't use it.

I don't need it, but to those who easily get into the game, may need to. Bad grip = broken whatever, and it can be your TV. >.>

Re: The Wii is Here.

If you're a stupid clutz, don't get the Wii.

Otherwise you'll end up on this site: http://www.wiihaveaproblem.com

and me laughing at you. x)

Otherwise, the Wii is a great console. Not the best games, but you get to have the classics if you download.

<3 Wii.

Oh, and those Wii pics are cute. x) I was gonna make one like that, and one for PS3, though I dun like ps3.

No More Heroes trailer. Hope it works.

Seems interesting. Interesting enough to check out their other game "Killer 7".

Re: The Wii is Here.

9 ball alone would be worth it for me so long as the gameplay is decent.

How is the gameplay though? Is it good?

9-ball is alright. It's not very deep, and I continuously find myself getting scratches. It doesn't seem very strategic, nor is it deep, and it has the medal system just like in Wii Sports. It's fun for a good week, but it's nothing that you'd play forever. And fishing sucks ass.

Re: The Wii is Here.

I'm really glad to hear that. I got those 2 new controllers for my birthday, and that brought me up to 4, but i was a little disappointed, thinking that I'd want Wii Play. That's a bit of a relief to me.

So yeah. Bought SSBM and a classic controller, then found out you need a GCN controller/mem card for GCN games. I'm gonna return SSBM and just buy a points card to buy Super Mario 64 or something.

Wii Play:
Don't do it, unless you're in it only for the remote.
The only decent games are Find Mii (2 player), Tanks (any player), and 9-ball(zomg). The other ones are sub par and just isn't as good as a "demo" as Wii Sports.
now brb, playing ocarina of time

Re: The Wii is Here.

My mom used to be like, "Brush your teeth then go eat breakfast." She never said it again when I said, "Okay, I'll brush my teeth now, and let the doughnut sitting on the table eat at my teeth all day while I breathe chocolate at everyone I come into close contact with." Well, I wasn't so snotty about it, but that was kinda the idea.

Re: The Wii is Here.

Yeah, that was a tough one, as I saw both sides of the issue and was unsure where I stood (I almost never eat breakfast). I like refreshing my mouth soon after waking up, but I hate how it makes any food taste gross (plus, getting food all in your mouth right after cleaning it kind of defeats the purpose....).
