Sometimes light sources like sunlight can disrupt the connection. Thats the problem I had with mine.

My guess is that the white GC controller is either completely illegal, or first-party, as the + style control pad is patented by Nintendo. Also, there really aren't any discernable differences between the original. If it isn't official, the makers are in for a lot of trouble.

Some random company is trying to sue Nintendo for violating a patent of a remote controll similar to the wiimote. They demand a gigantic sum of money and for Wiis cease to be produced. I either heard about it on wiihaveaproblem, or AOTS. I'm trusting squeek has heard about it, or I missed it completely in previous pages

I think I mentioned it here before. Maybe not in this thread.

They have no chance. I wouldn't even consider losing sleep over it.

Oh, and this is probably too late, but I'll try anyway.

Amazon has a stock of Wiis going on sale in the morning.

Gay.

I got up at like 3:30 AM this morning, but didn't get on the computer until like 7:15 AM. That's alright though... I'd rather get mine at a store.

and purplepopcorn: Yeah that was posted about here somewhere.

Oh and I know you can skip the replay but even then I get the feeling the games going,

"LOOK AT THE REPLAY OF YOU FALL..(pressed A button).....DAMMIT!"
More or less annoying than the marble mini-game in Twilight Princess?

Put it this way.

I actually managed to make my forehead bleed when I smashed my head on my desk while playing that retarded marble game.

Never have I even come close to bodily harm when playing Monkey Ball.

I've headbutted my wiimote a couple of times because of that.

But you need the Frog Lure to get an even better lure.

One that doesn't require head trauma.

Hahahahahahahahahaa ha a aha haaa.......................




Wait there was another lure?

So anyway. I picked up the new issue of NOM (Nintendo Official Magazine) and they gave Warioware 92%. More importantly they had an artical on this game that's coming late next year (Uk release anyway). From the minds of "Killer 7" we have "Heros".

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/No_More_Heroes

The game looks awesome.

"It's not out in Japan for at least six months but Grasshopper's No More Heroes is already shaping up to be one of the most hotly anticipated games of 2007. Take a look at these new screens or watch the trailer on our Video Vault and it's easy to see why it is being so hyped.

Of course one reason there's such a buzz surrounding No More Heroes is because its developed by Grasshopper's Goichi Suda, the man behind the brilliantly sinister Killer7. While No More Heroes isn't as bizarre as Killer7 it looks as if it will be every bit as violent as you play as Travis Touchdown, a katana wielding professional killer.

Set in a city called Santa Destroy, Travis Touchdown roams around taking on missions for the United Assassins Organisation in order to earn money and purchase new weapons. The Beam Katana is his main weapon and you'll have to swing your Wii Remote to slice up your victims.

That's all for now but if you want more, make sure you buy Issue 12 of Official Nintendo Magazine on 22 December for a huge exclusive 8-page No More Heroes feature."








And here is a preview video. Comes complete with bad voice acting.

Oh and if the website asks for a password it's "Waahaahaa!"

"The game takes place in the fictional town of Santa Destroy, located in the west coast of America. Unlike Killer7, it will have a freeroaming world similar to GTA."

I loved Killer7. Don't really know why. Maybe it was the psychotic atmosphere.

I have a Wii, I stood outside of Target for 7 and a half hours (midnight to 7:30am) for one, only to have to wait a week and a half for Christmas to open it. And when I did open it and got to play it, I realized my parents didn't buy me any games for it... But I did get Twilight Princess for GC, which is pretty cool. I am going to get some games for it on my birthday (Jan. 26) which is cool... ^_^

(There, I made my sig smaller, I think it looks cooler this way, thanks SethSquall)


My sig isn't too big, it is under 500 characters. < LoL. (Only a lil bigger than Telvanni's.)

Anyways, Wii Sports is fun for the first 15 minutes, but after you play all six games, it gets boring. A kewl thing I found was that you can make mii's, which are little characters you can use for games. I made one of everyone in my family. ^_^ I am going to make a video of me playing the Wii so you can all enjoy the Wii-ness. ^_^

Wii bowling is too easy, just turn yourself by pressing right twice on the d-pad after pressing a, then move yourself left twice, and just roll, strike every time.

My sig is complained as being too big. (Need to re-edit it sometime..)

Wii sports is a great selection in my opinion. Especially playing Tennis with a friend.
