Wii Launch Topic (all Wii stuff goes in here)

[Red Dragon]

This is the Wii topic to discuss all that is Wii. I enjoy making these topics alot.

To start off the topic, let's watch a video... YOU HAVE TO CLICK OF THE CREEPY GUY TO DO IT THOUGH!

Do you dare?



80 min wait for Mario.
320 min wait for Zelda.

I'm sure the Wii will lose it's hype after launch, but this kind of attention can't be a bad thing mirite?

Re: Wii

You know, I am patient, do to the fact I have things like a JOB and FRIENDS to keep my mind off the wait. But when I think of Zelda, I have to admit, 13 days seems like a while.

Re: Wii

Who has time for friends?

Anyhow DO A BARREL... through.

Wii Internet too

Re: Wii

Hmm, I wonder if it'd be possible to play Flash games on the Wii.

Re: Wii

Well, you can watch cooking shows! That's good enough right?

Or someone could be patient because they don't have a job and have no money. Like yours truelly.

Will the Wii controller work on a rear projection tv?

I think the browser does support Flash. It all depends on how well it runs. You can play Flash games on PSP now but, the PSP can't handle most of them. It can't even handle Flash Pac-Man.

The kind of TV doesn't matter. What matters is where you put the sensor bar.

...Why wouldn't it?

[ErikaFuzzbottom]

Re: Wii

Because light guns don't. But the Revmote isn't a light gun.

Re: Wii

the controller doesnt interact with the screen at all, just the sensor bar.

Re: Wii

Hey, wouldn't it be nice if they had a light gun attatchment though? Namco, how about Time Crisis collection?

[Valkysas]

Re: Wii

They do have one. it's a cradle that the remote and nunchuck fit into. not being released any time soon though.

You'd still have to aim at the sensor bar (below or above the TV) instead of the screen, unless the remote has some light-gun functionality that hasnt been revealed yet.

Re: Wii

The way they presented the 'light gun cradle' makes me think it won't ever be released--just shown more for nostalgia. The wiimote seems to work well enough to not need the cradle, anyways, for anything besides aesthetics.


...and locking the nunchuck attachment with the wiimote would seem to take away from gameplay (i.e. not being able to control movement with your left hand, while aiming with your right).
