Nintendo Wii Low Down...


ha ha, you people flammed me and tried to make fun of me like i don't know what i'm talking about in the other Wii thread about the pricing. You wait...its going to cost $199
 
That "Classic" controller Nintendo displayed for their Virtual Console looks uncomfortable and ill-suited for N64. Why not just release a wireless SNES controller and Wireless N64 controller for VC games (since nes is covered with the WiiMote)? I don't think I'll be happy playing DK64 on that mutant.
 
That youtube video sure was sexyt, although IDK if I would like playing FPS games like that... I think my arm would get tired. Sword fighting would be hella fun!

Well it does have gamecube controller ports on it. IMO, the gamecube has one of the best traditional controllers EVER. Im just hoping it will work with my wavebirds, but it kinda looks like the transmitters *might* not fit :( Time will tell what happens though. In any case im sure the aftermarket will step in with some classic-to-wii adapters, like they make for every other system.

That was the E3 video nintendo showed at their conference. And you dont have to swing your arm around for the FPS and stuff, if you see the other E3 ones of people actually playing it, not videogame models, then you will see its not that much movement at all.

Is it me, or do those game clips look almost as good, if not as good, as the other next-gen consoles, despite the Wii having less power?

The Wii will be the most popular, that is something I do not doubt, and never have done.

Bring on the Wii!

It's probably because it's not a nightmare to code for =)

Wavebirds would work, evern if they don't fit. Just get a short extension chord and put the wavebird transmitter on it and hide the chords. :D
 
Hm, that looks great. Althought I vastly refuse to buy that minigame thing, too embarassing... On a sidenote, the girl on minute 3:40 is hot. o_O
 
i cant wait for the wii
although i dont think ill be able to give up classic gaming, i will probably buy a xbox360 later on, aprently they will become cheaper at christmas
and no one knows if the wii will be a success anyway yet
looks good, but looks can be decieving.
so i might just end up with xbox360

Ah so simple. I cant believe i didnt think of that. I just kept looking at the little door on top and wondering.

A bay for an SD memory card will let players expand the internal flash memory.

Can anyone see a homebrew scene coming on?

A hardcore homebrew scene lol. And with devkits under $2000, all they need is for people to chip in, buy one, spread the manuel for coding games, and volia. Instant homebrew.

God, this is the first console I've been excited about for a long time (other than the gp2x ;) ) Is there any release date set?
 
Not officially, but the employees at my local video game store tell me that rumor speaks of November 15.

Man, that was a godawful sentence.
 
they will be oficialy stating the release date in the first Qt of september... ands its going to be 130 GBP and 250.00 USD or nere to those prices. have you lot seen the GUN addon for the Wii remote it looks real nice.. i quite like the "classic" controler they have made... but anywya that was only a prototype for E3. The Wii is going to be amazing... and i hope to hell that a hombrew scene comes out of it; seeing as it will have SD and 12" disc suport. Also dose anyone know how the VC is going to work i mean if you can back your games to SD what is going to stop mass sharing of the rom files... its going to be verry interesting to see how it all turns out.
