wii is gonna slowly..but surely die down after the hype dies down


console power is a joke, not any different than gamecube..

mos_skeeto 04-11-2007 12:59 AM

few tech articles out in the past few days talk about how big guns like EA are late to making lots of wii games and suffering. as long as people are buying the consoles... more quality games will come out.

Nope, the only piracy device I'll ever sell is the R4DS, because it does more than just circumvent game protection ;)

IMO if you want to play Wii games, buy the Wii games...

If you want to turn your DS into an MP3 player and video player, buy an R4DS. Just so happens that it allows you to play game ROMs too :p

asian_XL 04-11-2007 06:45 PM

there are many places sell clone wiikey...check out other game
forums and they have a long black list. The chip looks very
similar, but not upgradable, so beware of it.

Any word on upcoming games on the Wii? I pre-ordered one last week and it should be in next week.. but I'm kinda paranoid that there won't be any good games for awhile.

well actually, it's not technically a "pre-order" since i actually paid for it and all, but last week thesourcecc.com had about 400 units ready for order on their website. it's being shipped from toronto at the moment, so hopefully it will be here in the next few days!

TypeRNammer 04-13-2007 08:46 PM

people come to best buy super early to grab pre-orders (tickets) and they come back later to pick it up when it opens.

GP ReCyko.. Unlike normal NiMH batteries, they don't discharge (nearly as much) on their own. With normal NiMH batteries, they'll lose like half their charge just by sitting there if you don't play for a couple weeks. Then when you want to play again, you're left with dead batteries.
