[Question] Planning on getting a Wii...

One really nice thing about the Wii browser is that whenever I wanna show family friends my photos, all I need to do is go to Facebook with the browser. It's funny, too... whenever I do it, the people ask me how much my photo viewer cost, and I have to tell them it's a game machine .

There's nowhere I can't reach.

I was wondering, when saving GC games, do I need a GC memory card, or can it be saved within Wii's internal memory?

Also, I have 500 points left, which NES game do you recommend?

edit: I hear about these Component wires. I'm an idiot when it comes to video quality enhancements, but does it work on normal TVs (non-HD)?

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

Component cords are still much better than composite (anything is really) but many older tvs don't even have slots for component anyway. They are red, blue and green and allow for progressive scan and have a sharp attractive picture. If you can't use them, your tv may at least have s-video slots which are still a gigantic improvement at any rate.

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

You need a GC Memory Card. To the Wii, the GC games have nothing to do with each other.

I was speaking idiomatically.

I see. Do 3rd party GC memory cards work at all with the Wii? Or is it the same as the controller.

Man, I was forced to buy a used GC controller. So disgusting! I literally had to dip it in acid and alcohol to remove the gunk of shit it was covered in.

What kind of toxic man-thing is happening now?

Haha wow... yeah a few of our controllers are probably that messy now, but that's after years of use so...
I would imagine that all 3rd party peripherials would work on the Wii if they worked on the Gamecube. Correct me if I'm wrong, but the Wii has a Gamecube built into it so... it should work the same.

FELIPE NO

For multiplayer that hasn't been mentioned I recommend some of the VC titles if you don't mind older stuff.

Dungeon Explorer is like an older Gauntlet if you can stomach the age and plays with up to 5 people. There's Bomberman '93 also for that many people. Obviously Mario Kart 64 if you can afford the extra classic controllers/GC controllers to fill 4 slots. Several nice 2p coop games too like Gunstar Heroes, Streets of Rage 2, etc.

Mario Party 8 I would advise against. I don't know if it's me but the unlocks were rather fast to get this time around, especially the minigames. Then again, it is the newest installment in the franchise.

Big Brain Academy Wii Degree you shouldn't get. It's pretty fun at first, but painfully limited in retrospect. You'll quickly notice the same games within less than 30 minutes, and there are very few of them when you realize you've played them all.

Warioware Smooth Moves is really a blast if you and friends don't mind making fools of yourselves. Many microgames and the sheer randoness prevail. What we do when we stop snipping each others' ropes in Lifeline is go to the 1p player file and then try to beat my record for the Super Fast tower.

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