The freaking game starts with a half hour video on attaching your dongle to make babies.

Casuals can't read manuals...?

Casuals aren't aware of manuals. Nintendo learned this in the N64 days, so now they include tutorials in almost ever character-driven game they make.

Why Mario Kart Wii never included a forced "Toad's Tutorial Track!!" that shows you how to insert your Remote into your Wheel confuses me, cuz it's so unlike Nintendo.

Do they sell the WiiDust (R) seperately?

I think it will only be available from the Nintendo Fun Club. A typical Wii Dust packet should run about 400 coins and last about 6-8 weeks depending on playtime.

Any pointers for basketball? I can't seem to get into any kind of rhythm.

BlackNMild2k1 · « **Reply #207 on:** July 28, 2009, 12:31:49 AM »

I shoot like I would a basketball only with a little less wrist action since that makes the ball fly flat.

Find the smooth motion that get you the arc, then all you have to focus on is aiming straight and shooting far enough.
I haven't perfected it yet, but I've been able to hit about 7-8 in a row at times.

This game is fuuuuuuuuuuuuun! I like Table Tennis very much, bowling, golfing, Frisbee dog fetch gaming too.

NinGurl69 *huggles · « **Reply #209 on:** July 28, 2009, 02:54:45 AM »

OH MAN, wow. This is a neat game. I'm in love with PINGU PONGU.

With that out of the way, time to put it back in its case and let it collect dust until friends come over.

Time for more Rune Factory Frontier.

bosshogx · « **Reply #210 on:** July 28, 2009, 08:04:11 AM »

I too cannot get the hang of B-Ball. My best score is 5. Then again, I suck at shooting in real life so...

I played this for a while with my brother and I couldn't get it right.
Now I played alone and read the instructions carefully and it works great. You need to do a forward arch motion . When I figured it I was happy and felt that motion plus really is something worth while.

Airplane mode is great. I have less than 10 of the i locations left.
They actually make it more interesting as you play and collect more i things.

I have a two seater plane. It can shoot two things at once. I can fly at night. At night fire works happens and the city is light up. The blimp has my mii face on it.

This has always been the reality we lived in. Companies who lose money die, there was never a land of roses and kittens where they did everything just for the hell of it.

I really want to get Resort but I've got to wait for my next paycheck. I get the feeling that I might have trouble finding it if all the motion plus units are being concentrated to America though.

So who actually uses the condom with M+?

When I picked up Resort YESTERDAY at GameStop, they had 20+ copies that hadn't been picked up or bought yet.

FLOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOP

I picked mine up at Target on Sunday & I got the last copy. There was also a bunch of moms with their kids running around looking for extra M+'s but Target was all sold out. Two moms gave me the warning that you gonna need an extra "bottom thing" if you want to play with two people.

Follow this basic motion and then pretend you are casting a fishing line at top of your motion.
You should get a good arc out of the ball. Then it just comes down to aiming it perfectly straight and tossing it out far enough to reach the rim.

damn it i can't find the last 2 i things on the airplane mode.

kraken613 · « **Reply #218 on:** July 28, 2009, 08:38:19 PM »

I have 64 I think. I only wish it wasn't a 5 minute limit and I would spend lots of time playing it. Whats the last unlock? I just got the 2 seater.

AV · « **Reply #219 on:** July 28, 2009, 09:37:19 PM »

i tried to fly into the sun. They said you must stop and than magically popped up near the island again. I just fly due west into the sun way past anythng. I was wondering if invisible wall existed or if it would be a globe aspects were you would return on the other side.

i don't mind the 5 minute limit. i spoiled all the unlockables so far above.

Stratos · « **Reply #220 on:** July 29, 2009, 05:53:52 AM »

Maybe the last unlockable is no time limit?

actually IGN said it was you have your own house or something on one of the islands

I got a email with some codes for watching the title. Apparently if you hold 2 button before table tennis match you get to play a faster mode that doubles the score to win. I haven't tried it myself yet.

BeautifulShy · « **Reply #222 on:** July 29, 2009, 02:15:18 PM »

So when are we getting a review from NWR. You said that you would get one up before the launch of the game so where is it.

Smash_Brother · « **Reply #223 on:** July 29, 2009, 03:21:55 PM »

Played it and I'm not impressed.

These are definitely tech demos, and the only one that holds my interest was the swordfighting, except that it's not that good either: you're still locked to a circle so it's not like you can move the remote any way you want and hit that way.

And what is with the sheer amount of recalibrating the game requires? Before every swordfight, you need to aim the cursor at the screen and you need to occasionally set the controller down on its face so it can recalibrate. I expected a BIT of recalibration, but this is too much. How can you design a game around WMP without the constant recalibrating destroying any sense of immersion the game might've otherwise had? "Congratulations, noble hero, you've defeated the evil troll king! Now your sword could probably use a rest so put it face down on the table in front of you."

I'll be curious to see how Red Steel 2 turns out. I need to see how this tech works in an actual game before I decide if I like WMP or not.

Caliban · « **Reply #224 on:** July 29, 2009, 03:28:38 PM »

At first, and without ever having tried it, I thought Frisbee Golf was kind of lame. Now that I've tried it I am quite delighted in its required skill.
