re: things getting broken/people getting hit...

It just shows you how uncoordinated and unaware of their surroundings that sheeple are... and how weak their grips are... people are launching these things as hard as they can (for no good reason... it detects speed, not momentum) but with a weak grip... and are surprised when it goes flying out of their hands.

The general public really are retarded... has any one tried walking throw a shopping center.. it's awful especially round this time of year, it likes a mix between that lemmings game (retarded little creatures need to be guided to safety and march forwards oblivous to everything around them... ) and Dead Rising (1000s or mindless Zombies in a Mall )

Speaking of which... I couldn't get a hold of a Wii till after christmas (it was ment to be me and my twin's Christmas/20th Birthday present but HMV welched on our Pre-Order and denied giving us the games they advertised in the bundle...) so I paid the different and we got an Xbox 360 instead.

Glad I did... when you look outside of Zelda (which is a Gamecube game anyway... they just tacked on Wii controls) theres only really a few party games like Wii Sports, Madden and Rayman... everything else looks and plays horrible from what I am hearing.

I'm getting Zelda for my Gamecube for christmas now... I played a Wii in GAME, pretty fun but I can wait till they come down in price tbh... other than Zelda theres nothing up coming that I HAVE to have...

I got Dead Rising, PGR3 and Double agent and FNR3, getting Gears of War for Christmas.

The Wii will be fun for party games... but they've made it weak... really weak, despite it's fancy Shmancy controller... there are things that it can't do... Nintendo say that it's all about gameplay... and have said that teh Xbox 360 and PS3 are only about pretty colours and bells and whistles... not true.

You'll never see a game like dead rising with 1000s of Zombies on screen at a time, you'll never have the detail that fight night has... you can tell how damaged your fighter is and how tired they are just by looking at them.

Till I got my Xbox 360 (which I was gonna get any way at some point because games like Resident evil 5 and grand theft auto 4 won't be coming to the Wii... at least not properly... it'll just get crappy ports... like how splinter cell was fugly on the gamecube) I bought into what Nintendo where saying... but it's not true... they should of made the hardware more powerfull (it barely beats the gamecube, or so I am told) and given it an original controller... there is still a lot that a powerful machine can do... not just fancy graphics. Giant worlds... physics etc...

I've always had a Nintendo and will get a Wii, but in the long run I think they may have fucked up here, outside of party games like Warioware etc I can't see them doing to well.

hate to break it to you Smash but I heard that the boxing is the worst on that Wii sports thing... :/ Once you've brought all the spare controllers and Nunchuch add ons, you'll have probably paid what it would cost you for a hard drive, an Xbox and a copy of FNR3
