Bytored Posted March 16, 2008 Share Posted March 16, 2008 The wife and I were sitting there eating breakfast this morning and she spurts out " I want a Wii" I thought Ok but good luck finding one. Turns out the first store we walked into had one, and I was secretly hoping they were out! Anyway this thing is a blast!! What can this strange device be? When I touch it, it gives forth a sound It's got wires that vibrate, and give music What can this thing be that I found? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
teletalkin Posted March 16, 2008 Share Posted March 16, 2008 Never tried one but I'm afraid if I did I would be hooked! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stamplicker Posted March 16, 2008 Share Posted March 16, 2008 Nice find! didn't relieze they were so hard to come by, until my assitant said he was looking for one for the family. Figured, hell I'll just grab them one for christmas and surprise them, no go unless I wanted to pay 3x what they were worth.. scrapped that idea quickly.

Bytored Posted March 16, 2008 Author Share Posted March 16, 2008 You guys crack me up! In the store wii were asking about the extra remote paddle and the guy kept referring to it as a weemote or wiimote. I finally caught on and jokingly asked him if he had a speech impairment...luckily he got it and cracked a smile. What can this strange device be?

A String Posted March 17, 2008 Share Posted March 17, 2008 Wii've had ours for a few weeks now and I still love the thing. A word of advice though, don't buy Wii Play. Fumbly warned me, but my wife insisted that wii get it. Sure enough, I know own Wii Play. It's a huge waste of money. I've bought the browser so I can surf the internet and added a second remote so wii can play two player games.

Yeah kind of a waste but still fun especially if that the only thing ya got to play. Which brings me to my next question, Anybody got Metroid for the Wii? Gonna go get some games but which ones should I get? What can this strange device be? When I touch it, it gives forth a sound It's got wires that vibrate, and give music What can this thing be that I found? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fumblyfingers Posted March 18, 2008 Share Posted March 18, 2008 Wii have 3 wiimotes now and wii all play wiisponsibly and wiiear our wiiriststraps. Yeah Craig...does that game not flat SUCK!!!!!!!How much was it up there? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
A String Posted March 18, 2008 Share Posted March 18, 2008 How much was it up there? It does suck. It came with a remote (which I needed anyway) and the Wii Play was an additional $16 on top of the cost of a regular remote.

Big Red 67 Posted March 18, 2008 Share Posted March 18, 2008 What is wii play? Big Red's Ride Blog Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fumblyfingers Posted March 18, 2008 Share Posted March 18, 2008 Well at least it has a remote...yeah out here it was around $50. Its a Wii game Big Red....it has several games in it...duck shooting, pool, table tennis, fishing, tanks etc etc and you think you are getting all these games but in reality it is sort of a training session for the Wii to get you familiar with the different remote movements.....so there is no real tournament type deal, arcade play thing....short little passes and then when you can do it you get the next game opened. At least that is how I found it...maybe I did not play it enough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At least that is how I found it...maybe I did not play it enough. Sounds a little like the games that came free with earlier systems. The early systems came with Wii Sports (I think they still do). Wii sports is a great game. It's the reason I bought that system instead of a 360. The problem with the Wii Play games is, they all suck. For example, the fishing game isn't what you'd expect. There is a little pond and you lower your arm to lower the line into the water. When a fish touches the line, you lift your arm to raise it out of the water. You have just caught a fish and learned that the Wii remote can track your arm's up and down movement. That's sort of how it works... I'm with Fumbly on this. If you get a Wii, don't waste the money on the Wii Play. If you want Fishing or Pool, buy the fishing or pool game.
