who got the wii?

[bekahbeans]

It. Is. Awesome.

I wasn't so sure about the controls at first, but when I actually got to play it, it's awesome! It's not hard to use at all, and it's way more fun than the old controllers.

Yay for Nintendo!

Heh, when I asked you about platforms, I hadn't seen this thread.

I just bought an Xbox 360 to go along with my PS2. Don't think I need a wii or PS3 yet...

I got one, but its my nephews Christmas gift, but I'll get to play it too! I cant wait for Christmas. I already hooked it all up late one night when he was sleeping to make sure everything was in the box and I played it for a few minutes to try it out, I love it, its great!

I was like you Bekah, I was not sure about the controls, till I actually played it and I think the controls work great! Very fun! I also bought Zelda TP! He loves Zelda games.

Im looking forward to Mario Party 8, Animal Crossing, Harvest Moon, Wii Play and Mario Galaxy. Im hoping they make a new Luigis Mansion, the wii-mote will work great for that game, and hopefully a new Pikmin.

You didn't tell me you bought a 360, Dave. I'm disappointed in you. No for real. That's pretty much the worst one of the three new systems. Everyone thinks so. :( Do you think you can still take it back and get a Wii?

And Chad - did you play Zelda at all? Oh man it's stunning. I didn't want to ever put it down! I can't wait to get it on the Cube since I can't afford a Wii right now.

I'm SO excited there's gonna be a Harvest Moon. love love love.

I have not played Zelda yet. Its still wrapped. Im going to let my nephew take care of that Christmas morning. :)

i read somewhere that the Wii vibrates?....

[tiger_rascal]

Actually, the Wii-mote vibrates, just as many video game controllers do these days, nothing new.

i have it, absolutely love it.

[spitItOut39]

I don't normally like video games but my son is obsessed and until he got a wii, I rarely played. The wii is tons of fun though, makes the games more interesting and fun to a non-gamer.

[tiger_rascal]

I've got one. My nephew and I love it. We have dozens of games for it.

Our latest purchase was Animal Crossing: City Folk.

[britty88]

ummm...ok i just bought one. and im setting it up right now. im kinda screwed cuz my vcr...which is where i have to hook it up thru...doesnt have an input line showing wii

help!!!!!!!!! asap!!

[tiger_rascal]

Im confused.

Alright, check your vcr for 3 holes, they should be different colors, one red, one yellow, one white. Now, take the same colored plugs for the wii and plug them in, white into white and so on.

Hope that helps.

My son wants this one for X-mas...any good?

[gameboy]

^^^ It'll be the best thing ever.
My dad whom I've never got to play a single video game ever played Mario Kart with my 7 year old nephew and I the other night and liked it. I even filmed him on my cell phone as evidence to show my sister, lol.

I'm dying for wii fit and music, but I can't find fit anywhere!!

[tiger_rascal]

The Wii is quite possibly the best video game system ever. At least until Nintendo releases their new console in about 2 or 3 years.
