    Re: The Wii is Here.

    I've been starting to get problems on my Wii aswell. Today when i got on the Mii Channel, it took 1 full minute to load it, and it spun the disk inside it the entire time.

      That endless spin disc was a problem I was having with my old console. I haven't had the problem with the replacement console, though.

      In other news, my Zapper arrived from Amazon. I am enjoying it quite a bit. It's a little small for my hands, but it works all the same. After my initial run-through, I went back to the stages I didn't platinum on my first run though. 6 in a row. Stage 7 is where it gets hard though. That stupid fight with the winged lizards is ridiculous.

      I'm noticing that it is much more stable than just the remote, which is a good thing because you need a stable hand in Umbrella Chronicles to get critical hits, which are the only way you will be S-ranking the stage.

        In my opinion, this is far superior to the one that I have.

        When I bought the zapper for RE:UC, I was expecting something like this.
        apparently, the zapper looks better than that shotgun u_u

        I'd rather play with the zapper than with that huge thing, btw that shotgun was for sale? xD lol
        I already told ya...the squirrel did it!!

          has anyone bothered to get Medal of Honor: Heros 2? i desperately want to know if its worth it, and if the 32 player multiplayer requires freind codes or if you just join a server

            Haven't played it myself but I've heard that it controls better than Metroid Prime does, beyond that no idea

              Atleast I'm not the only one with the problem.

              I would get the zapper, but I don't have any FPS games for my Wii, nor do I see any interesting ones out there. Does the zapper even come with a game of it's own?

                I have experience with that game. But I can tell you 3 problems that I have with it.

                1. The Campaign is too damn hard (even on easy!) and has only 7 or 9 levels.

                2. Sure MP is fun with 32 people (no lag yay!) but the problem is that when you're playing in the battlefield, on the minimap, all you see is your allies, not your opponents. So when someone throws a grenade, all you see is an "X" on the screen and when you run, BAM! you're dead.

                3. Some people aren't fair on the Wi-fi server. (yes there is a server) I shot someone with a shotgun at point-blank range at least 7 times and they didn't die. Indicating that like the DS wi-fi games, people are using cheat systems on the Wii also.


                Its fun overall (barely) but if you wanna strain yourself with that campaign mode then go ahead. Once I beat that game and accumilated at least 49 hours of online play, I traded it in.
                My Wii Number is :1400 3149 4401 2038 add me.

                If practice makes perfect, but no one has reached perfection, then why the hell practice?

                  Re: The Wii is Here.

                  I tried the zapper on Umbrella Chronicles. It's true what they say. It works better without it.

                  Disappointing. At least it works well with Elebits. I think. I haven't tried. At least I can hope House of the Dead works well with the zapper, else I probably won't ever use it again, considering I finished Platinuming everything in Crossbow Training already.

                    Re: The Wii is Here.

                    i can't wait for dragon quest: swords and no more heroes

                    Dragon quest looks like is gonna be deep and hard like any other dragon quest with the twist of the controlers and the first person perspective (wich reminds me a lot of the first dragon quest)

                    no more heroes: a combination of GTA , star wars and some anime XD it's gonna be hilarious and highly entertaining.

                    since brawl was delayed to march i think i'll have enough money to buy one of these games (if no more heroes is short i'll rent it)

                      No More Heroes review.

                      It's odd. They're like "We like this, this, this, this, and this. Heck, we like everything. We gave it an 8.2 though."

                      And they show the kitty close-up like three times. I will be spending ridiculous amounts of time with that cat.

                        I'm really excited for Endless Ocean... I think I'm the only one though.

                        Also No More Heroes the day after oh crap expensive week.

                          I'm psyched about endless ocean. I'm extremely interested in marine life, and hope to pursue it as my career choice. As a plus, it looks nicely relaxing. I don't mind how little "action" there is if I'm not looking for action.

                                Forgot all about that.

                                The wikipedia article says you play 40 instruments in Wii Music.

                                Sick.
