Nintendo Wii

Post by PegLegHolly »

hey so yeah, i got a wii. and if you have a wii and are connected to a lan line through it or have wifi... then you can play against other "mii"s. are there any other people who got a wii? if so, do you have internet connected to it?

well if you do then i can tell you how to add people and their mii s and their registration numbers.

im totally down to kick someones butt in bowling!!

(super smash bros for wii is supposed to be able to play against other wii people but it doesnt come out till june)

I don't have Wii, but the 2 South Parks they did on it were pretty hilarious. 8 ) Out of curiosity, how much do they cost?

I played around with my buddy's new Wii last night. They're pretty fresh. I'm seriously considering getting one for the ability to download old school games and play them, but at the same time it might be more elite to just buy a super nintendo.

But what about the other systems you can play using the WII's virtual console?

it costs like 500, 800 ,or 1000 points to download nes,snes,64 titles

(their payment system is in points, but you have to spend 20$ to get 2000)

. right now there is a list of whats avail on wii.com, but its pretty much every mario, the o.g. zelda, and a few other games.

you could just download some roms and emulators, but you wouldnt get the unique chance to use the wiimote.

i wonder how long it will take to crack a wii, and use free roms. :lol:

Whooooaa!
I just saw Wii at a Nintendo display in the mall today!
WHOA! Wii is soooo cool! I want one!!

I'm going to go look for videos of people playing now. That's how geeky I feel right now!! Some guy was explaining it to two people trying to play, and he was like, "There are no buttons for this game, you just play as if you were really playing tennis" and Lauren and I looked at each other and freaked out!

YESSS!
