Wii.
 

Anyone else pre-ordered and getting theirs on launch?

I'm gonna blow so much cash on games, cause theres so many must-have launch titles... -_-

naw....but ps 3 will be very interesting.....havent really seen anything on wii

Yeah PS3 is cool... I'm not really hyped about the launch though. More or less NO great games.

I'll probably buy one some time next year when the new MGS/FF/Whatever else is good comes out for it. Or, of course, if the launch line up changes.

Wii on the other hand, theres at least 5 games I have to get with it.

werd imma find a link and check tha ish out...............

im not to fond of the wii controls. they seem wayyy too complicated
and im more into sports games so ps3 has better format and graphics for their sports games

You can't say that without trying it. You could say the same for me thinking its good, but ive seen all the videos and reviews by credited sources that all say how wonderful the controller is and describe it's use. Not to mention all th developers that want to develop for it purely because they think the controller is kick ass.

For one, it isnt complicated at all for decent games. Obviously those gay ports that come out on all system have to think up a system of complicated and annoying gestures for the controller, or just use the normal one which takes away the fun...

Other than that, its simple... Point, shoot. Swing. Slice. Jab. Drive. Punch. Hold it parallel to the ground in a flying game and tilt the front down to tilt down the front of the plane... Tilt sideways to tilt the plane sideways... etc.

i pre-ordered my wii for £20

either gonna pay the extra 160 at launch or buy it and sell it on should stock run out and make me a nice lil profit :)

Downhill Jam is a perfect example OMB. I'm getting it. I should have 250 by then. lol I got a preorder of 5 on it though. My copy is reserved. (Suckers around here don't preorder shit Hehehe)

Super Smash Brothers Brawl isn't coming out until like Fall 07 so I won't be getting it till then.. but Call of Duty 3 is coming out next month soooo yeahhh.

feels like its gonna be another kiddie playtime with barney & big bird system like gamecube, nintendo 64 was the last dope shit nintendo came out with imo

I was on my way to pre-order and the fucking old bitch ahead of me got the last fucking one.

:shoot:

Fuck a Wii reminds me of atari. :bored:

Dude, that was just Sony and Microsoft buying off all the third party support.

This time nintendo has basically every single developer wanting to develop for the Wii, because they all love the controller and how easy it is to develop for and the possibilities it opens.

I think the only title meant FOR kids that will be available at launch is spongebob. Also available on every other system out now. Mario galaxy is far too difficult for kids, even though theyre gonna wanna buy it. Warioware is aimed more at stoners. Metroid and red steel for the FPS fans. Excite truck for racing guys. In Japan at least a few RPGs will be available, and definitely an X-Men RPG for the US as well as zelda.

btw there were plenty of fine games for gamecube. Its wierd though, everyone goes zomg nintendo has kiddie games, when every other console gets them too... The first party nitendo games could be considered childish by looking at them, I guess... But if they were kiddie games, they wouldnt get such great reviews from every reviewer that isnt prejudiced.

^^yea but u dont see a gamecube having a grand theft auto or saints row

Yeah, bad luck I guess.

Wii however... Rockstar themselves said the controller was kickass, and that they look forward to developing for it. Of course theyre not gonna port GTA4 to the thing, its too different from the PS3 and 360. It will get its own original games like that to suit the controller. And boy will they... Now I think about it, that would be so dope. Theres such ill control schemes for shooting, slicing, hitting, flying, driving, etc that they've thought of with the Wii controller... It would be good to have them all used in a GTA-like game.

But yeah, other than that get over it. Kids in primary school play GTA more than they do Nintendo games. They dont like nintendo games, because they say they look "kiddie." Ironic, isnt it? The kids think nintendo are kiddie, and the ######## gamers praise nintendo for their excellency, originality and innovation. lol

yea but the developers arent the ones buying the games, so basically, nintendo isnt gonna sell well, then poeple are gonna stop developing for them cuz most likely they are losing money, so far the only thing youve said wii had over PS3 was the controller, but the ps3 controller does motion sensoring also. but also, PS# has a shitlod of bad ass features n shyt, and thats not even mentioning the hacks people are gonna come up for it

*downloading ps3 games to you hard drive and being able to load them off of it
*networking your ps3 with your comp so you can access your musicc and movies via ps3 meaning you can access all your music/videos/psp game files that are on your computer, via a psp that has a wireless internet connection from anywhere, yes anywhere even a different state, as a game system ps3 is better than wii, as an entertainment console, PS3 swallows the wii and 360 shits them out and flushes them down the toilet

damn cant wait for the ps3 freal but it ogn be expensive as fuck

Err... Hate to burst your money bubble, but nintendo will be making profits right from launch. PS3 ans 360 need to wait until they make up their debt and expenses. And worldwide, at LAUNCH they will have sold almost 2 million units. Developers want to develop for Wii because it gives them freedom, lets them make innovative original games... They will make profit as long as peopl buy wii, which they will for the games.

Wii is all about games, so as a games system could be considered better than the PS3 and 360 because of its gameplay. If you judge games by graphics, wii is not for you. If you judge a games console by its ability to do things other than play games, wii might be for you. Its designed to appeal to a wider audience, it may not offer blu ray or HD dvd, but it allows members of a household to do things they want through the wii channels system..

I am going to get a PS3 as well for the reasons youre stating and because I like the PS3 games. But wii is just too good to turn down.

my daime, in the long run i saw by half a year, PS3 sales AND profits are gonna shit on Wii, people arent looking for jut gaming in consoles anymore, the technology is to good, the typical consumer likes the game with the better graphics brah, ps3 as a console shits on the Wii

Then why did DS sales #### all over PSP sales, when the PSP clearly has better graphics and media capabilities, as well as hacks?

It is because nintendo makes games. Its what they do. They make games for everyone... The DS appealed to a wide audience. From ######## gamers, to people who havent cared for gaming their entire lives. It is almost every professionals opinion that the wii will do the same and end up raking in more cash than the PS3/360... This is not a matter of favoritism, capablities, or raw processing power... This is about games, appeal, and desirable features. I AM a Sony person. I WILL buy a PS3. But Nintendo had me with the N64, lost me with the gamecube and regained me with the DS. I have seen their marketing plan for the Wii, and its amazing. They are going to reach more people than ever before... Sales will benefit from this.

######## gamers and tech-heads will buy the PS3. They'll also buy the Wii for it's innovation. But as well as that, a whole other market will go for Wii... Its a matter of common sense to see that at least profit-wise, Nintendo have got this in the bag.

Lmao, man. Same dude talkin' all this noise about the PS3.

First thing I'm gonna say is all that bullshit on PS3 has been out for months on the 360. My shit's hooked up USB style right now. I download games, demos, expansion packs and all that all the time. Also, all that noise about "oh, uhhh, you can download new content for games too." Been done on 360 already so don't think it's so dope.

PS3 is old and it's not even out yet. Oh, well though. I believe people more about the games will get a Wii. Basically everyone I know thats pretty in games are going to be getting one. And more people that are up on GTA, etc. are going to be on PS3. Just an opinion though. Espcially since it's going to be $600. Fuck that.

^That's gay, broseph. But either way, whoever has a 360 has all this and alot better games already. Gears of War, Halo 3, Bioshock and CoD3 shits on your MGS4 and -oh, look at these amazing graphics, oh it's just a racing game- launch titles. lmao.

PS3 is old, man. Play Wii.

kirk, your not even worthy of arguing with so im not gonna evenhit you with a rebuttle

Teremuto, i HATE to admit it, but you just reminded me of how much i love nintendo 64, backc then i would have rather played that than playstation 2 until they stoppped making nintendo 64, but even today there are still times where i rather play n64 than PS3, but i mean cmon 64 had Super Mario 64 CLASSIC game, now its Super Mario Galaxy? that just doesent appeal to me for some reason, but now that youve reminded me of the 64, ive taken thought into the wii, why dont you tell me some dope games comin out on it, so i can research them, now i know what your saying when you said im gonna get a PS3 but im still getting a wii. BUT the ds sales shitted on psp cuz psp is a playstation portable all the games on it are basically the exact copies of old ps2 games which is why i havent got one, only reason i am getting one is cuz of ps3. but Congratulations OMB you won. lol another thing i jus realized is that PS2 games i beat them quick as hell, while nintendo 64 games were actually a challenge the first time around (like super mario 64) it took me hella long to realize the flying cap was RIGHT THERE in the middle of the room, damn i hope wii does the same

Why's that? Cause PS3 is the just the same old system like it's always been?

Its not that its old, its just that now it has all the features that Live offers.

I would actually consider the 360 "older" than the PS3, hardware-wise at least.

It's all the same, man.

Man super mario galazy - looks ILL. Go to youtube and look up some vids for it, they reckon it will be far better than Mario 64 and it has a LOT more playtime. Its aimed at the ######## gamers.

The new Super Monkey Ball - Dont let the visuals or the prospect of controlling a monkey in a ball fool you... This game is some insane fun. And I mean INSANE fun, because the two final worlds are so difficult that 90% of the people who buy the game will not even unlock them.

Wii Sports - Despite being included FREE with every console, so far everyone who has layed hands on this has been itching to get a Wii. Wii Sports actually has 5 different games, Wii Bowling, Wii Baseball, Wii Boxing, Wii Tennis and Wii Golf... All of these are multiplayer. Wii Bowling has you doing a bowling action, and detects your movements right down to the angle and even spin you can put on the ball. Wii Tennis, swing the controller like a racket, you can serve, hit forehand and backhand, put spin on the ball, do lobs or slams. Wii boxing, you hold the nunchaku attachment (also fully motion sensetive) in one hand, and a controller in the other and just.. box. Same deal for golf and baseball...

Red Steel - This is just my personal opinion, but this game reminds me of a beefed up version of Goldeneye set in Japan. You use the analog stick on the nunchaku attachment to move (Like WASD), the controller to point and shoot (Like a mouse). Theres a sort of "bullet time" thing. And also sword fights... In which case if you have one sword you use the controller to slash, stab, block and whatever, and if you have two swords you also use the nunchaku.

Zelda - This is going to be HUGE. I'll say it right now, this game will be legendary. There is too much for me to rave on about, but trust me, this is gonna be DOPE.

Warioware smooth moves - Hilarious, look up a video of it on youtube. Biggest stoner game ive ever seen... I had all the other warioware games, and #### had me rolling. This is one of the games made by the dudes at the Kyoto Nintendo who never get off the shrooms and LSD.

Excite Truck - Kind of the sequel to excite bike... Fast Paced gameplay, lots of air time and carnage and turbo boosts and that kind of ####. You hold the controller sideways and use it like a steering wheel.

Those are the first ones that come to mind... Theres probably plenty more.

Oh and as well as that you can download N64 games, SNES games, NES games, Old sega console games, and TurboGrafX games right onto the Wii.

When it gets more violent i'ma cop one but the controller seems hella cool but cant drink soda and play argh

ok, looks like im gonna have my wii before ps3, seein g as it cost less

Lol, I told him all that shit in a earlier thread and you didn't wanna listen.
