[Wii] Official Nintendo Wii thread

Super Swing Golf is out today!

Anyone heard any news on how it plays? Or did anyone import it?

I'd really like to know~ If it's good, i'll pick it up since Wii Sports Golf's 9 courses
are getting a bit boring ^_^''

There's nowhere I can't reach.

I am here to say:

PLEASE DO NOT BUY or RENT FARCRY- Vengeance!

IT IS THE DUMBEST THING I'VE EVER PLAYED! I JUST PLAYED IT!
Plesae don't waste your money on this! PLEASE!

I'd rather look at the Wii Menu than play this piece of JUNK!

This is a warning!

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.

Sorry for the odd post earlier, i was just really frustrated with the game.

Here's why i think Far Cry is terrible:

1) The controlls feel clunky. Moving the Wiimote to the left of the screen
or right of the screen will make you turn. If you want to stay focused without
turning you'd have to hold A down. But even there's a sensetivity setting
in the options, the controls don't ever feel comfortable and precise.

2) The framerate is TERRIBLE. If you're not in a dense jungle area (like
a building with not much inside) the graphic are fine. But once you hit
areas with grass and trees~ Goodbye Smooth Framerate. I mean it's
terribly choppy.

3) Since slicing with the knife is done by swinging your Wiimote and
aiming is by pointing the Wiimote- Sometimes when i want to slice,
my view will go down since the swing is registering as pointing downward
quickly on the screen. Annoying.

4) The openning movie when you start a new game looks like they ripped
it out of some cheap quality YouTube stream. There's little glitches and
bad rendering with lines running across the screen. They were too lazy
to actually use real-time graphics for this so it looks like they took a video
from a really old previous version of the game. You have to see it for
yourself, and when you do, you'll understand why it kills this game even more.

5) Some websites say the game is 4 players, some 2. Well, the game is
only 2 Players (i was hoping for 4). When you play versus with a buddy,
the split screen is horizontal. It's too bad the frame rate is terrible again.
Not only that, when you kill a person and gain "Predator" status,
the "Animalistic" view sort of looks like you're looking through a fish bowl...
I can't see CRAP when the sides are blurred and you're running twice as
fast as you normally do PLUS the framerate DROPS drastically.

I've never played a Far Cry game before but... This feels like something
i'd play on the PC back in the 90's. No Joke. Rent it for yourself and see.
If i seem bias, well i just spent $50 on this junk hoping it would be ok.

I am a dolphin, do you want me on your body?

Ahhhh! I'm purchasing an HDTV tomorrow (720p)~ So the Wii will not
look pretty on it right?... Is there a way to lower the res on the TV?
Like, dumb it down? Sorry, i'm new to to the whole HDTV scene.

But reading through the Wiki on Aliasing sure helps me understand it better.
Still, as i have stated earlier, is there a way to lower the res on the TV
while i'm playing on the Wii?

-oh!-

Question~ Do all HDTVs have component cable jacks?

I was speaking idiomatically.

Thanks fo the info guys, i look forward to my TV purchase today!

How ya doing, buddy?

I've been playing the Wii all day with my new TV...

Man, the Wii went from Super Fun to ADDICTIVE now lol!
What a great system.

FELIPE NO

Yea, i'm fine with it actually. It really doesn't bother me after seeing how it looked like on 480i ^_^''

C'mon, Me and 3 buddies playing Tennis laughing our butts off was fun on the tiny 15'' screen i was playing on...
On a 42'' HDTV... It's WAAAAAAAAAY BETTER ^_^

On another note, i just rented Elebits for the week. Didn't get to sink my teeth into it yet but i'm looking
forward to giving it a run through.

What, you don't want my bikini-clad body?
