Nintendo Gaming / Which game???
« on: May 03, 2007, 09:04:24 AM »
So I recently won a Wii game of my choice...only problem is it's an activision game of my choice....so I get to choose between three.

Tony Hawk Downhill Jam
Call of Duty 3
Marvel Ultimate Alliance

Anyone have any experience with these three? I've played M:UA at my buddies house on his 360 and it's fun but I can always go over there and play...plus the 360 version just got new characters.

Thanks a bunch

Nintendo Gaming / Mass USB Storage...HDD???
« on: April 06, 2007, 12:50:42 PM »
I looked around and saw no one else posted it, (if they did, my bad) Anywho, here's the info.



Press Release
Quote

(Tokyo, Japan - April 4, 2007) eSOL Co., Ltd. announced today that their leading embedded middleware products, "PrFILE2" FAT file system and "PrUSB/Host" USB host stack, were selected for the "WiiTM", from Nintendo Co.;.
Both software products constitute fundamental functionalities in the Wii console - managing and transferring data and files with external media. In particular, PrFILE2 provides file management functions which read and write data of theSD memory card, as well as other media;. PrUSB/Host functions are used in Wii, to provide USB host functions.


Not sure what that really means. Is it just firmware for the SD? Is it something that will allow you to hook up an external HDD to the USB?

Any thoughts?

Nintendo Gaming / Interview about MySims...uggg
« on: March 29, 2007, 06:56:15 AM »
OK, first of all, here's the link over at IGN MySims Interview

I just kind of hate reading things like this. First of all the game a "kiddy" look to it
Quote

doesn't look like anything you've seen before. It really looks like something that was made for Nintendo.

Quote

you're going to feel like they're something created for a Nintendo console. In deciding to make MySims specifically for Wii as opposed to any of the other next-gen consoles, that's what we really wanted.

Quote

I think the game has a very Nintendo look to it.


I don't know why that bothers me so much, the game itself sounds interesting, but I can't get past the look.

The people look dead on like Duplo people, ya know the Legos that are made for kids under three (I have a 3 year old nephew) and the fact that the EA guy keeps saying it's a nintendo feel sickens me.

For a reference, go take a look at the screenshots of the game people then look at this.

Duplo people

They look so dead on I think Duplo should sue EA

General Gaming / Spiderman 3 The Game
« on: March 05, 2007, 10:23:17 AM »
Wasn't sure where to put this at but they have an Official Spider-man 3 The Game community where you can get insider stuff on it and enter to win contests. The only trick is you have to be invited into to join.

I've got about 50 invites and most people who's e-mail address I have don't play games. If you want an invite to it, just send me a message.

Opera is asking for user feedback for the Opera browser on the Nintendo Wii. On Opera’s Nintendo Wii portal page (sorry, it’s only accessible via the Wii) there’s a link for a feedback page.

I also found a Opera Community forum that discusses different things about the Wii browser.

Nintendo Gaming / Forbes Wii review..

Wii is a revolution

Suddenly, videogames are fun for everyone--old or young, male or female, regardless of prior gaming experience. I lost count of how many times I heard non-gamers say, "Wow, I want to get this.

Nintendo Gaming / Costco only ONLINE orders!
« on: November 16, 2006, 11:08:54 AM »
according to IGN. IGN
Quote

Seeking to avoid the furor that overran its stores with last year's Xbox 360 launch, Costco has decided not to stock the Wii or PS3 in its stores this week. Instead, customers can purchase bundles online at costco.com.


Quote

In speaking with a Costco employee, IGN learned that Costco expects to get some bundles in stores by the year's end, but that the initial shipment would only be sold online.


Just a heads up

Nintendo Gaming / Free Wii from Gamefly
« on: November 16, 2006, 10:35:05 AM »
OK, I probably shouldn't do this, but I will. Gamefly.com is giving away a Wii everyday, if you read the fine print you see that you don't actually have to sign up for their service.

You can enter everyday, trust me I've tried for the past week. But I need to share the love, so here ya go.

Gamefly Wii a day

No spam mail or anything from them, just be sure NOT to click the box unless you want mail from them.

Good luck and if you win, you can thank me!

Nintendo Gaming / Toys R Us to give away 25,000 Wii's
« on: October 10, 2006, 08:09:00 AM »
Deal or No Deal

Keep a look out in the mail or newspaper for this!

Quote

Weekly circulars from Oct. 1 to Oct. 28 carry two cut-out game pieces -- shaped like the suitcases used on the program -- that shoppers bring to stores. There, they can turn in either the "Deal" game piece, which awards 10% off one item, or the "No Deal" piece that provides entry into the game. Shoppers opting for "No Deal" have their suitcase scanned to see if they've won a prize or a 5% discount on one item. They can play each week after receiving new game pieces.


Quote

The promotion dangles a grand-prize $1 million and a trip to Los Angeles to attend the show. Nintendo Wii game consoles will be awarded to 25,000 entrants.

Nintendo Gaming / Preorder, midnight sale, or just wait???
« on: September 14, 2006, 10:28:11 AM »
Curious what people will be doing now.

I'm in a toss up, due to a vacation starting on the 19th. Not sure if I should find a midnight sale, or preorder so it's waiting for me when I get home....waiting is NOT an option for me.

Nintendo Gaming / Far Cry: Vengeance..new info and ONLINE!
« on: September 06, 2006, 05:02:22 AM »
C3 News
Wiimote used for knifing attacks, moving Wii mote forward to zoom among other innovations.
Online possibility being in retail version - “We’re testing online right now”.
Not a direct port from the Xbox versions, primary focus being graphics and gameplay.
Wiiconnect24/Downloads being a possibility also.

More information on the title is said to be revealed on the 14th.


With Far Cry being confirmed as a launch title makes me wonder about all the reports of Wii not being online for 3rd parties. If Ubisoft is already testing online, then maybe other 3rd parties have acces to it but can't talk about it yet.

Very good news on the Wii front!!
