[Wii] Official Nintendo Wii thread

I can't view the screen at http://img141.imagevenue.com/img.php..._122_447lo.jpg

Is there another link? I would be interested to see it.

Jam it back in, in the dark.

C. Dipshit is the guy on the left.

No doubt about it.

There's nowhere I can't reach.

I just thought he looked like a dipshit

BTW any way to get that image of Farcry Vengence to work again? I really am interested to see it. I can't imagine the official screens were from an anywhere near finished version of the game. Cause it seriously looks like N64. Gamecube could do waaaaaay better than that. If it is what it will look like, companies need to realize just because its not as fast as the other two systems does not mean they can cut quality in the graphics department. Because its not broadcasting in HD wii can still put out some decent graphics, though not quit as goos as the other two consoles, the graphics are not worse than gamecube. If companies start doing that, they are sealing the systems doom.

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

lol...how do you slab with a sword?

"One Step closer and I will have to slab you!!!!!!!"

game does look fun though. I hope it controls well also.

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

having flashback of my freind when he was 270 ibs desperatly jumping around in DDR trying to keep up.

I was speaking idiomatically.

what if they made one where you had to move a different Wii-mote attachment for each item?

holy crap that would be confusion. Need to heal, let me pull my heal-mote off my wii-belt.

What kind of toxic man-thing is happening now?

Actually I thought that I read that with most Wii games the goal was to run them at 4x AA

FELIPE NO

God the textures are all so blurry, GC could do better. not to mention the poly count isn't that great either. Oh wait and it looks like we are back to the days of no lighting what-so-ever. What is the problem with these companies?

"Oh boy Nintendo doesn't care about graphics anymore! Lets fire all our talented artists!"

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

lol, they really should be ashamed of the quality of the graphics when compared side by side with Red Steel or Metroid. And I doubt those two games are effectivly taking advantage of all the systems power, considering the CPU and GPU weren't final during the whole development.

Jam it back in, in the dark.

A lot of the screen shots from some of the upcomming games have been just plain ugly, and there is really no excuse for their crappiness. Especially COD3 and Farcry. Farcry doesn't just look similar to N64, it IS N64. It easily could be done on that old system in the state it is in the screens. It induces vomitting.

There's nowhere I can't reach.

what is the video of, cause I really don't feel like signing up for another internet anything unless it is something worth it. Like, is it never before seen footage of a wii game? Cause if it is anything else I probably wont bother.

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

Yea, thats why I asked. It was flagged therefore it requires you to sign up in order to varify your age.

Most amazing jew boots

Supposedly the new screens of Call of Duty 3 at IGN are Wii specific. I really don't think they look much better than the last batch IGN put out. They have said Wii specific before and put out GC or PS2 shots so I won't be surprised if they really aren't Wii screens. But if they are, boo to the devs of COD3. It looks like the graphics are sloppy and rushed.

Most amazing jew boots

wow I just finished watching the Nintendo World montage vids at IGN and I will have to say, I am hyping the Wii more than ever.

Disaster looks like its gonna be bad ass as well as Hammer.

To see these two, check out the year 2007 titles video. (its the last one)

what about Red Steel? Rayman? Excite Truck? ( not to mention Zelda, it gets double props).

That right there is more than enough to keep me busy till more games come out and I am sure there are more that would interest me after I tried them out.

This was supposed to be a responce to this qoute:
The only title worth anyone's attention at lanuch is Twilight Princess.

Wii launch range: lame/boring/drivel/gay

but for some reason I can't edit anything right now.

FELIPE NO

Easy. Wait till you get a Wii to play Twighlight Princess. There is such a thing as patience. I am waiting till I have a Wii to play it and I won't be buyuing a Wii till next year.

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

I wonder that myself because it is only stated that Wii can do 480p and 480i but that was said about the PS2 and PS2 has a game that runs in 1080i (Grand Turismo 4).

Jam it back in, in the dark.

anyone get Red Steel? I was wondering about first hand impressions cause reveiws have been mixed. I am interested in getting this one when I get my Wii.

How ya doing, buddy?

I have never heard of ths brand before, I would at least check the reviews, and I mean legit reveiws like home entertainment magazine/websites and user reviews. Be wary of LCDs that are likely to have a dead pixel problem. I would avoid any TV's suspect of dead pixels like the plague.

Thanks Starman for the mini reveiw of Red Steel. That is just what I am looking for. I think I may get the game, I will most likely try it out first but your reveiw helped sway my opinion because I know you play BF2 and so do I, and you were still able to enjoy the game with some little adjusting. BF2 and the BF series is about as far as I usually go with FPSs. Soo that being said... I can assume I may like Red Steel because I do not hate FPSs if they do not conform to the usual control, as long as it is done well enough that it is functional.

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

anyone check out the new Facrcry update on IGN? My God that game looks like utter trash. Seriously, how do they think making 2 generation old graphics is going to help the Wii out as a system, or for that matter immerse the player in the game???? I mean gameplay is important and all but...
I hope this trend does not continue further on Wii games. Maybe this is just a bad nightmare and I will wake up tomorrow like nothing ever happened.

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

yea, but that kind of thought can ruin a system and put preconceived ideas into the generally game ignorant masses head about the systems potential. I just wished that if they were going to half ass something don't do it at all. Instead they should put those wasted efforts toward something worth it.

I was speaking idiomatically.

well if the developers keep throwing out half baked games it WILL break the system (and I don't mean specifically the Wii, but any of the 3 new consoles). Mark my words. Graphics do matter in a sense because it is that that helps to immerse you in the world. Zelda is a great game not only because of its use of the Wii controller which helps make the series fresh and even more natural in many aspects, but also because of the amazing world depicted in the game which is brought forth by none other than the GRAPHICS. You cannot dismiss that fact. Just because Wii is not a graphical powerhouse does not mean that developers shouldn't spend the time to make the games look nice.

That is my point.

And they can. If they put forth effort, but I guess effort in ones line of work just isn't important anymore.

What kind of toxic man-thing is happening now?

anyone catch that SSX wii trailer on Spike TV last night?

I didn't... just wondering if it looked any good.

FELIPE NO

Do the Virtual Console games actually use the Wii processing power or do they emulate the slowdown of the older systems also?

While at points it was helpful to have slowdown in some of the SNES shooters I would like to actually play games like Axelay running at a constant framerate.

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

wow, my freind just got one of the less than 1% of Wii's that gets the 110213 error code after updating in which you will never be able to access the internet. Nintendo is replacing it free of charge within a few days which is awsome on their part but wow, what bad luck.

I guess its gotta happen to somebody though.

The good news is that if you get this error, you can still play your, games, you just cant update or access the internet thereafter.

Jam it back in, in the dark.
