Who's heard of it or wants to get it?

Kaiser - November 10, 2006 10:52 PM (GMT)
I want that so much!!! If I get it, I'm getting Legend of Zelda Twilight Princess directly!

Kronakitty - November 11, 2006 12:52 AM (GMT)
What IS the Wii? o_O;; I've never heard of it. XD

Kaiser - November 11, 2006 01:55 AM (GMT)
Here's a picture of it:

It's pretty sweet, in my opinion.

Kronakitty - November 11, 2006 02:52 PM (GMT)
Ya, it IS really sweet. ^_^ Does it play Pokemon games?

IceMasterX - November 11, 2006 04:47 PM (GMT)
Si. It does. I can't wait for it to come out. How can you not know what the wii is? It will be awesome!

Kaiser - November 11, 2006 04:49 PM (GMT)
It comes out in seven days, I'm so excited. There's a pokemon game coming out for it eventually, so far it's called Pokemon Battle Revolution.

It has pretty awesome graphics, does it not?

Wyvern - November 13, 2006 11:26 PM (GMT)
The new Pokemon game is called Pokemon Battle Revolution. Its like Pokemon Stadium but...I dunno

Kronakitty - November 14, 2006 01:28 AM (GMT)
The Wii is so cute. *__* I wish I could get it, but I'm too poor. =OO Anyway, I have my eyes on the NDS right now. My birthday's in two days, but I'm not sure if my dad will buy me it or not. XD

If not, maybe Christmas...

Shadow - November 14, 2006 02:57 AM (GMT)
I've heard about it, but I've never really known what it was, besides the next game system. So it's not handheld? =( Darn.

Battle Revolution looks pretty cool. =D

Axphear - November 18, 2006 09:14 PM (GMT)
I want it but not that much it seems cool but it costs 250$.

IceMasterX - November 18, 2006 10:56 PM (GMT)
Well, the price is awesome compared to the Playstation 3. I don't know how much it will cost, but I think it will be alot more than the wii. . .

Axphear - November 20, 2006 11:51 PM (GMT)
I heard the Wii is able to play Gamecube games. I think you use your body to control some games.

Ps3- $450, although it's in such high demand that it's going on Ebay for $1200.
Wii- $300

The Wii allows for almost every single thing you ever wanted to do with video games. Plus, you can play Gamecube games on it (and even use your old GCN memory cards), and you have access to a library of older N64, SNES, NES and even Super Nintendo games. Cooler still, it allows you to BROWSE THE INTERNET. Yes, you heard me right. If I'm not mistaken, you could access EVF from your Wii.

It's heaven on a stick. <3

Heaven on a motion sensitive stick, Zephyr. Motion sensitive.

I think I can get a Wii for my birthday, as I'm in the stage of bugging my dad for one and bargaining with my brother to let me use the PS2. He wants to use the Wii in turn for letting me play Final Fantasy XII, but I'm only letting him play the gamecube, as that was the original deal. I'm good at arguing with him, so I won by bringing the gamecube into my room and playing the PS2 when he isn't around.

If I have to get the Wii at Christmas, then I'll have to share it with him. That won't happen if I can help it.

Darklink - November 22, 2006 11:06 PM (GMT)
I just got back from GameStop and they had ONE Wii left, I didn't even have my money with me!

Wyvern - November 23, 2006 12:46 AM (GMT)
the best part is the Virtual console. I'm getting LoZ Twilight Princess and Super Monkey Ball Banna Blitz!

Muffin - November 23, 2006 02:47 AM (GMT)
Meh, I don't want one right away. If I do get one, I'll get it after the price drops and people stop killing each other over them. o_o;

Eievui - December 12, 2006 01:48 AM (GMT)
It IS heaven-play previous Nintendo games on it, browse the Internet with it, get a workout using that Nunchuk thingy it has, and hook it up with the DS! And to top it all off, it's the least expensive of the three new consoles! Could it get any better?!

Darklink - December 21, 2006 01:01 AM (GMT)
Woo-hoo! I finally got one! I feel so happy I could explode! *explodes*

Wyvern - December 26, 2006 08:07 PM (GMT)
Lucky I don't have one and can't get one until 2007. Its all out...T_T

Wolf Link - December 26, 2006 08:19 PM (GMT)
I'm getting one this week. My name is down for one :lol:

Eievui - December 31, 2006 01:10 AM (GMT)
My brother was going to get one, but they were all out. :(

You're lucky, Phe. :D

Shadow - December 31, 2006 01:39 AM (GMT)
I saw one of them the other day. I was pretty amazed by how small it was; I was expecting something PS2 size.

To be honest, though, I don't really want one yet. =/ Pokemon Battle Revolution isn't even out yet, and if it is, it sure isn't going to be cheap. I'd kinda like to wait until there's more games out that I'd be interested in.

Wolf Link - December 31, 2006 10:24 AM (GMT)
Me...got one...yesterday...and...I...EXPLODED.


Also got Twilight princess, and a spare remote.

I really love to have a Wii, but unfortunately I got ripped off once by my own employers. One team leader said I could have this one that was missing a controller (I was like "heck ya!") but somehow some other people found out and so they said I wasn't able to buy it because of other people complaining. I was so mad. Oh well, guess I'll have to wait until they come out sometime next year. And hopefully not get yelled by a customer that was saying I shouldn't buy one at my store because I work there. >>;;; I've had bad dealings with trying to get one.

Games I would like for it.. Zelda: Twilight Princess and DBZ: Budokai Tenkaichi 2 (even though we got it for PS2 already.. ^^; ). I'm sure there are others, but have to at least wait until I get one..

Eievui - January 4, 2007 01:58 AM (GMT)
You got ripped off by your own employers? That's just mean of them! :angry:

Anyway, my brother still can't find a Wii. :(

Wyvern - January 5, 2007 12:28 AM (GMT)
dude I'm so mad. I was getting one this week but it was all out during School time!

Where? I'm desparate for one.
But what really makes me mad is people say

"OMG I got a Wii! And You don't!"

What did I do to deserve this? I'm a good kid

Kasai Ryuu - January 9, 2007 05:43 AM (GMT)
Well, I'm finally got me a Wii. Had three of them at my workplace and I took my first break an hour early just to make sure I got one. ^^ ... then I had to wait about three hours until my lunch. @.@; But I love it! I got Zelda for it and I also like playing the Wii Sports too.

Zephyr - January 9, 2007 08:03 PM (GMT)
Lucky Noodles went and got herself a Wii. :< I've played it (although her little brother hogged it for the most part) and it's pretty fun. I expect it's gonna get better, like the DS did- when it first came out, the games were really awful. But later on it got so many great games. :3 I suppose the Wii'll be like that too.
