The Nintendo Wii Thread - For All Nintendo Wii Related Stuff!

Hopefully the wii version of Zelda TP’s controls are not to difficult I want to buy the at launch. Also they changed the controls from what we saw at E3 to swing your sword you use the remote now instead of the B button the B button is used to shoot your bow now.

I should have Wii later... high prices >.<

Nintendo has been lowering the prices to everything. The console, the games... maybe WiiConnect24 will be the same.

Well I don't really agree...
Ninty tried to lower the price only on GameCube many times with total failure of course.Now it only costs 99 euro cheaper even than GBA!
Nintendo prices GBA games for 50 euro and NES Classics for 20 euro!!!!
20 years old games for 20 euro!!!!!!!!!
These prices are totally unacceptable.

I will buy the new Zelda but I'll stick with the GameCube version.
I have not decided about buying a Wii or not yet but I really don't like the new control system.

you hav to be a nut not to like the Wii's control system its some brand new and never seen before (I may be wrong but its cool)

i dont really like the Wii's default controller.... the fact that i have to swing my arms around like a lunatic is retarded. Ill use the GC controller with it.

So what? That's a new way of interaction and by the way, you can exercise your body while playing

There is knew info about the resident evil game for Wii. The game was now given the title resident evil: the umbrella chronicles the game will take place between RE: Code Veronica and RE4. The game will have RE4 style gameplay with the Wii remote acting as a light gun.

heres the whole story:
"Read this from a games magazine in HK today - its called Biohazard : Umbrella Corp Chronicles and fills in the story on Umbrella before and leading to BH4. Gameplay is a mix between using the Wiimote as a light gun and BH4 style elements e.g. action buttons pressing X for a dramatic scene. It features scenarios from BH1 (museum), BH2 (police station), BH3 (raccoon city), BHCV and BH4 (village) and ties in the gaps especially BHCV and BH4. Characters include Chris/Claire, Leon / Ada, Jill / Carlos, Rebecca, Hunk and Wesker . There are two gameplay modes - scenario mode and arcade mode. Proper announcement to be made by Capcom at TGS." - NeoGaf

ya you got a point it may seem retarded, but its cool its. It a new way to play first person shooters and sword games. Also like butters says its a bit good exercise for your arms. Ya the remote is cool for me thats my opinoin so I don't care but its cool and you got your own (you must be crazy not to like though) but like I repeat in this post so much its annoy, still cool.

ps I for got to write this on top ya you can use the gamecube remote but thats your lose to fun!!!

My idea of fun is not waving my arms around like im crazy nor is it to get exhausted playing games, Thats why i go to the GYM. But if f you all like it hey thats your thing i dont think im crazy for not liking the new controller interaction. :dry:

well you got your own opion... does any one know anything about the new metalslug game for the wii (I love metaslug games) and wat is it suppose to be about
