i wonder how there sales will do

[mobsterboy]

ok
a) Nintendo is in the stoneage, enough said
b)stop with the wii'ing already. Do you realize how gay that sounds? "I'm gonna go play with my Wii"(insert dodgy here)
c) Yeah, you'll have fun with it, if you like TV remote shaped controllers.
d) Only way Nintendo will fully be able to pull it off is if they come out with 1) a new Mario Kart, 2) a new mario party 3) a new mario world, 4) a new resident evil and 5) a new Donkey Kong. And even then, they wont be able to compare to the ps3 and xbox 360

a) I don't see anyone else with their accelerometer based system. They chose to go a different route, to capture a different part of the market. The fact that their system "technically" is inferior to the x360 or ps3 is moot. The selling point is that it's different.
b)Are you homophobic?
c)Who cares if it's tv-remote shaped. A large part of the appeal is the idea of two small controllers, one in each hand. Now explain to me why you shouldn't just make a tv remote comfortable to hold, and to press buttons on, instead of having a remote+2 separate controllers.
d)Or a new Zelda
e)Wii I believe is going to do very well. It's a completely new idea, and I believe nintendo will capture a large share of the market this console generation.

That basically shows your ignorance to the whole concept of the wii. The wii isn't meant to be compared to the ps3 and 360. Its an entirely new way to play video games. Sure, the specs aren't up to par with the 360 and ps3, but I guarantee you it will be a hell of a lot more fun to play.

Game consoles have been the exact same thing since they were first invented, and each generation brought basically one major thing. Graphics. I mash buttons on my friends x360 just like I mashed buttons on my NES and SNES. Nothing has changed at all, and frankly it's gotten old. It's about time for a step in another direction, and the Wii is the first one.

Anyway, the Wii is going to sell incredibly well no doubt about it. Your posts on this message board wont change the innovation and sexiness that is the Wii.


Oh, and for the record, I am not a Nintendo fanboy. The gamecube sucked ***, and I stopped buying gameboys after the color. I own a sweeeet modded xbox

[skife]

i want a wii too.
even though i love my xbox

[jenarelJAM]

OMG is it released yet???

/pointedly does not run to the store.
//going to wait til a) can get one conveniently b) price drops

[Glickman]

I have been beaten out on the following sites:
-Amazon
-Toys r us
-eToys
-Gamestop

and damn circuit city still has not released the sale of the wii despite their page saying "avaible as of 12:00am"

[personman]

BAHAHAHA I HAVE IT RIGHT NOW AND IT RULESS!!!
hehehe

[Head knight of Ni]

Twilight Princess is being heralded as the best Zelda ever. Any truth to that?

[Archangel Kid]

BAHAHAHA I HAVE IT RIGHT NOW AND IT RULESS!!!
hehehe

What games did you pick up with it? I heard WII sports is a lot of fun, did it come bundled with your console? My local Wal-Mart got 30 and I was to lazy to wait for one this time. I waited there for the 360 during a winter freeze w/ rain and winds =\ My bro is up in Times Square so I had him do a look out for me but he said the lines were literally wrapped around the buildings.

[tribalman]

answer me this.
why would you wait in line overnight for a wii when there are these 2 condidtions:
1.there are 99 confirmed wii's at the store
2. you pre-ordered it.

yup, some of my friends were waiting in line at best buy last night. i stopped in and made wii jokes. there were about 40 people there. i wish i could find the quotition but even nintendo execs have been quoted saying that the wii is just a redone cube. silly nintendo fan boys. they love to buy multiple versions of the same thing, gba, gbasp; ds, ds lite.

Sony and Microsoft do the same with the Xbox and Playstation, and besides, the Wii is a lot more innovative than the PS or Xbox. Think about it, all 3 generations of the Playstation use a VERY similar controller, and are basically just faster and have better graphics than the gen. before. The Xbox and 360 are alike too. I respect Nintendo for thinking outside the box.

If you can find me a Wii withing 20 miles of 08758, then I'll agree with Number 1. Number 2, I'm not really sure where you're coming from. I'm pretty sure anyone that pre-ordered and were told they were getting a system. Wouldn't be waiting online anywhere to get one. Went to my local wallyworld just for poops and giggles. They got 30 in and had a person in line over night for each of them.

a) The Xbox has better technology than the PS2, but it didn't exactly kill the PS2 in sales.
b) This is an issue for you?
c) There's also a classic controller.
d) Every game you mentioned is in the works, or will be avialable, and let's not forget Zelda

At a third the pricepoint of the other consoles, and with Nintendos reputation for gameplay and kid friendliness, I think it'll do a lot better then you think. We'll get one for just those reasons before either of the other consoles, and that's with us owing a nice HD set.
