Finally got my hands on my brother's Wii. (yes, I know many jokes could be made from that, so just don't bother making them.)

I got to make a Mii that looks suspiciously like Michael Jackson in his Thriller video, and play some Twilight Princess. Gosh, I wish that little runt had told me how to attack as the wolf just a little bit sooner. Spent so long bashing my head against a crate with the Dash command before my bro just said to wiggle the remote.

This line has more joke potential anyway :3

Dood... Now, playing with one's own Wii has many disturbing jokes that can be applied. But playing with someone else's Wii... That's actually frightening. I won't go near that. And it almost seems like lawsuit territory...

Everyone keep your distance. This is going to hurt him a lot more than it does us! I hope.

* dances *
* summons 50000 blue wales directly above Zeds current location *

Now, if I do that again, it should hurt just about as badly as your horrible pun.

You made a Michael Jackson Mii too?  XD That's hilarious!  When our roommate (who actually bought the Wii) made a Mii, it looked pretty damn disturbing, and then we realized that it looks too much like Michael Jackson, so we made a current-day Michael Jackson Mii.  It looks disturbingly just like him  :D

Also, I probably spent 45 minutes trying to figure out how to attack that damn crate, too.  It was sheer LUCK that I figured it out at all.  That's the biggest problem I have with Zelda games - figuring out what the hell to do next, and figuring out how the :censored I'm supposed to do it.

You know you want to hurt me...Spells my name right and I was only refrencing from Rockos modern life...

Well, I felt stupid getting up at 4 AM on the craziest shopping day of the year, but it payed off and I bought me a Wii (my friend [Draksaith] got one too). I've connected to the internet, made a Mii with a permanent  ~.~  expression, and really, really need to start playing Twilight Princess and Red Steel. Independent targeting dual-wielding guns/swords... finally! Although the wiimote aiming is a royal pain in the %#^@!

Too bad the web browser isn't available yet. I'm not sure I care too much about the News or Weather channels...

Ya know.. to think that the Toys R Us I work at has only had 4 PS3s ever. All Presale. And yet we just sold our 45th Wii today. o: That's a second shipment within a week of release...

DigitalMan

What's this you say? A second shipment already? Yes! Yes! There is hope!

Also, just so you know, most shipments will be going to Toys R Us, if one is in the area. Supposedly we're the co-launchers with Nintendo.

Im just gonna wait till next year

DigitalMan

Thank you thank you, Mr. Inside Man, sir! There just happens to be a Toys 'R Us rather nearby. :mwaha

Unfortunately I probably have to wait until next year as well, because I'll be getting my remaining $150 for Christmas and my birthday. Or who knows, maybe it'll be my birthday present. Hmm...

The worst thing is that Mega Drive, Genesis and Nomad run exactly the same games

Don't know what Nomad is but I can tell you that Megadrive and Genesis were actually the same console, they were just named differently according to region (Japan had Megadrive, US had Genesis).

now as for Master System and Game Gear...also same thing...why else do you think they play same games?

It's November 25th.   And Wii is still a stupid name.

nomad was a portable genesis/megadrive. the master system and game gear I already mentioned were alike, but of course, the design is different. otherwise it seems to use the exact same sound and video hardware, all in a smaller package. Most master system emulators also emulate game gear, and vice versa. usually there are only minor differences between game versions...

Gabi

Megadrive and Genesis play the same games but are not exactly the same. The Megadrive is wider, and doesn't fit on top of a Sega CD, which is why my brother decided to buy the Genesis.

Aaand this just in, apparently Nintendo ships roughly 200,000 more Wii units every week, and will continue to do so until at least the end of 2006. Now if only I could get my Christmas money early...

I recently read an articale about Wii related injuries.

It seems doctors are getting a rash of aching joints, sore backs, and pulled muscles.

they say Wii game injuries have little in common with carple tunnel and are starting to resemble sports, workout related injuries

Aridas

woohoo! now nerds are in danger! Somewhat!

Jack McSlay

wii doesn't injure only people

Keyboard not detected. Press F1 to resume.

I think I saw that before. The strap looks more like it was cut. Besides, if you don't have the brains to hold your remote in a way NOT as if you were barely conscious, you probably shouldn't be playing.
