was ot a bad idea for me to pre order metroid? should i switch the preorder and wait for a review
| No no, if anything else it should be fine
during E3 '07, Gamespot, Gamepro and IGN praised Metroid Corruption and they expecting it that once this game is released, it will be another foundation of what FPS games should b like on consoles.. much like what Goldeneye and Halo did..
they praised it for ultimate, almost flawless controls that what Red Steel got it wrong, they got it right with Metroid..
although i doubt it will still beat the mouse and keyboard controls...

The mod came out perfect. Couldn't be happier with it. | just got my wii modded by this guy too. great service cool guy, and the mod came out perfect as well. would recommend you give him a shout if ur wondering about a mod.

it shouldn't damage your wii or any system if the guy who mods it does a good job.
The only cavaet I learned with my modded PS2 is to always make sure your backup games are on a high quality DVD. Bad quality DVDs makes it harder for the laser to read the disc and adds more wear and tear on the machine.

well i'm finally back on this thread.. just got my wii modded at COMPC yesterday and i couldn't be more happy with it, although i read something about the new update for the wii that concerns me a bit
here's the link: http://wii.ign.com/articles/811/811064p1.html ...However, if you've illegally modded your Wii to play import games or copied titles then be warned. Before you update your firmware a message from Nintendo reads: "If your Wii console has an unautorized technical modification, this upgrade could cause inoperability of your console." Looks like Nintendo is clamping down on modders.
has anyone updated and noticed any problems?

if you check out the wiikey website, there is some info on it.
But the firmware update is not critical, so I would hold to be safe.

for me, i've probably spent over 600$ on my Wii, and I cant say i'm disapointed or let down even if I do hardly play it anymore | is it true that i can't store games that i download from the Virtual Console onto a SD card? then what is the SD memory slot used for? just pics?

I'm not 100% sure about the second, but I'm sure more games are going to make use of it since the Wii has limited space too.

i just got Mario Strikers...it's my first wifi game, so this might be a stupid question...but where do i find my wii friend code?
i went to the message, then address book, but there's a 16 digit code, but when i want to add a friend code on mario strikers it asks me to enter a 12 digit code....?
