My little bro just got one for his birthday a few days ago and I am an official Wii Tard...by far the most fun video game platform ever! Don't fell bad losmorob my shoulder is sore as I type this from the past 3 days worth of bowling. Rayman is fun too, I kick butt at the dancing bunny games. And Excite Truck...man I love the Wii.

 

Wii browser + youtube = amazing

 

I just picked up the Wii Play that comes with a Wii stick...pretty awesome game with ALL of the micro games in it. I especially like playing pool and the one where you ride a cow and knock the scarecrows down...pretty bada$$...

 

Wii play is o.k. Racing cows 2 player is good. Mario Kart Wii would be bad a#@.

I turned my 16yr old son onto watching youtube on the Wii and he's hooked.

 

got warioware 1 week ago, pretty fun! i just got back online wit the Wii, so i'mma add u peeps who i havent yet..its been like 2 months almost

 

^^^LOL...Yay!!!

We got WarioWare a couple weeks ago and played it quite a bit, but lately we have been so busy we haven't even turned it on in days!

WiiPlay is pretty cool as well!

 

we got wii play in the mail last night...it sucks. we got the game and a remote for $50 though, so technically the game was only $10...and it was worth about that lol

 

I downloaded Super Mario Brothers and Donkey Kong Country on Virtual console 2day, man, it felt like it was just yesturday that i was playing these games on the SNES. How time flies...

 

i have wii play and its crazy fun with some friends but Zelda is awesome. im almost through it and its just a crazy game

 

The new browser is available now. Download it before it costs.
Better controls, zoom works better as well.

Downloaded Starfox and Mario 64. Pretty cool.

I want Donkey Kong 64!!

 

^^ Just got the new browser last night.
HUGE improvement. All it needs now is tabbed browsing.

I'm probably gonna be throwing down some green for some of the new games they put on there the past few weeks.

 

Is anyone else having connection problems with the Wii after uploading the newer version of the browser?

Mine was connected just fine and did an update last week. Ever since, it won't let me connect either wireless or wired!

I have called Nintendo support, but they have not helped me. I am still waiting for a call back.

Anyone else having issues?

 

No problems here

 

im on my wii right now

 

4 months after Christmas and Wii's still sell out when they are available. There's news reports of senior citizen rest homes using the Wii for physical therapy!

And check out those floor stacks of PS3's in Best Buy, etc. Sony has also discontinued the 20gig model. My son's PS3 hardly gets used. (Halo addict)

What a huge turnaround for Nintendo. Who would of thought!

 

^^^True Dat!!! I can't beleive they are discontinuing the 20gb. I wouldn't get a 20 either, but for them to drop it...I read today that they could lower the price on the 20 and/or throw in a game or two, but to drop it?

Anyway...I finally got my call back from Nintendo and everything is up and running fine now.

 

Haven't posted in here in a while. Good to know that the Wii is still in high demand.

- I recently soldered in a Wiikey. Arrrg, mateys.
- Super Paper Mario is awesome!
- Just got done doing this to my wiimotes:

Got the tutorial HERE, and got the kit needed to mod it from there, too. Hard to do! But awesome.

 

Has anybody tried the wireless aftermrket sensor bar yet?

Just curious as I thing I'm going to need one. My bird (African Grey) got to the wire and almost chewed right through it.

 

They released a charging stand for the Wiimotes. It comes with 2 battery packs and a stand that will charge 2 Wiimotes. Only $20 bucks too! Problem is, it's hard to find them...just like everything Wii...LOL.

losmorob, I haven't seen an aftermarket sensor bar yet....but I will keep an eye out for one.

 

The NYKO WiiMote Charging station works great. One of the best buys so far, aside from Zelda and NFS Carbon. Also I have seen the aftermarket sensor bars on Ebay, passed them off as being EBay junk, anyone else know anything about them??
