Technology Should I....?

[Bobby Sands]

Buy the Nintendo Wii?

I havent bought a console since the Megadrive.Ive used my PC to play games since then.Do u think this would be the right choice?Who has it?

 

[Illuminattile]

Yes. Buy one.

 

[Bobby Sands]

Do u have it?

I dont want this console to go to shit within a year and Nintendo to stop making games for it,like what happend with the Dreamcast.although that was Sega.

Do u reckon it will hold its own against the XBox 360 and PS3.

 

[_carmi]

yes because it's innovative and simply fun. i don't own one, but i have played it. and it's fun. the graphics aren't all that, but the game play is fantastic. i'm buying one after xmas.

 

[Preach]

you can't compare it to ps3 or xbox because it's got something that neither of those two has got. i would get one if it'd only get used every once in a while when people get together. i'm thinking there's potential for a lot of hella fun games on it.

 

[S O F I]

I'd wait for more games to come out, if I were you.

^ Oh? Let's see... We have The Legend of Zelda, DragonBall Z (Which is FIRE, by the way), Rayman, Super Monkey Ball, WiiSports (comes free with the console, and is very addictive and a huge party game), Excite Truck (arcade racer), and more. There are plenty of games out now and those are some of the best ones.

YES, get a Wii. I've been enjoying it since release. Everyone has been bugging me to let them come over just to buy it. It was a huge hit on Thanksgiving. Everyone loved it and 4 people in my family went to go buy it, but it's sold out everywhere and they can't find one. Buy it, I promise you, you will NOT regret it.

Buy it, Buy it, BUY IT! You will not regret it.

is excite truck like excitebike? cuz if it is, the system might be worth buying just for that

Very similar, but the game could have been a lot better. The truck can over heat, you're in the air a lot of the time because of all the steep hills and it's very fun to play...just like excitebike. BUT, I will say that the soundtrack sucks ASS. It's so bad, I think you should mute your TV when you play. But no worries! The game allows you to listen to your own MP3's while playing through an SD card. The game has a very arcade-style feel to it. You know how arcade racers are "floaty"? That's there. The cheesy music? Check. The fact that when you crash you need to press a certain button to reset your car back onto the track? Yep, it's there.

It's a very entertaining game overall. When I'm playing I feel like I'm in an arcade. It's really cool. The multiplayer isn't that great, but it grows on you. This game is a rental unless you love arcade-style racers. Then buy, like I did

Bottle of Jagermiester + Red Bull + Wii * 3 friends = FUN!

 

[_carmi]

^the master has spoken lol

 

[S O F I]

Jager and Red Bull? Any good?

The games the guy mentioned don't excite me, really.

 

[ARon]

I prefer tequila or vodka with red bull but jager is good too.

I'd rather have a 360 or PS3 but yeah they are fun. Just for the fact at any moment you can break your tv, haha those videos will never get old.

Then I hope you're not going to PS3 for good games. Because there's only one. The rest bombed.

Wii has already claimed the title for having the best launch games in the history of consoles. XBOX360 is another great choice because it's a year ahead of the other two, but doesn't offer the immersion the Wii does. To every man his own.

 

[S O F I]

Well, I was speaking from personal experience. Zelda has been popular for years but I can't even look at somebody playing it, it bores me. Same for Dragonball Z.

 

[Jeremy]

Buy a 360 first. I love my 360. I will be getting a Wii also but only for the sports.

Great system for the price i got Zelda also Dragonball Z both where fun. The one thing that bothered me was in zelda it was way to easy like in the end when your fighting i wont drop the name but in the last battles it was so easy. After beating it the replay is low at least for me and DBZ is fun alot of shit to unlock.On a scale of 1-10
its easily a 6 to a 7 1/2 it will def be a 8 or 9 when i start checking out the VC games.

it's call a jager bomb and if you like jager it's good.

I've only played the Wii once and I loved it but I'm a huge nintendo fan. Sure they are never as high tech as sony or microsoft but they are just so much more fun to play. I still bust my gamecube out all the time for some mario party or mario kart. nintendo will always be the fun console and with the wii they have outdone themself
