ive played it...its kinda gay, the graphics arent that cool and your arm gets mad tired after a while cause you have to keep moving it around. but cool idea with the motion sensors and everything

My friend has it and it was really fun. It's pretty amazing actually. We played it with a bunch of people. It seems like it would be amazingly fun drunk...

My 2 cents

I have one and I love it.  I don't play games a whole lot, just like an hour or so every couple of days.  Once the next update comes out with the browser and such it will be key.  Graphics aren't anything special though, so don't get your hopes up.

I doubt the online play (if there is any) will rival the 360's or the ps3 (don't really know much about the ps3 though). If the Wii doesn't sell well it is because there are too many child games and not enough T & M games. Red Steel looks sick as hell though.

who the hell cares what the game is rated, the launch games are mad fun

wii sports is fun as hell and zelda is just plain amazing (hardcore gamers will love it) excite truck, trauma center, madden, and monkeyball are really sweet as well.

plus mario galaxy, metroid prime 3, and smash brothers brawl are gonna murder everything else on the market.

its worth the money.

I've played Zelda for 45 hours since I got it just over a week ago. Since when is that casual gaming? Not to mention all the time I've spet playing wii sports.
It is worth the money. I fear that I'm never gonna play my 360 again until Halo 3 comes out.

do you have to wave the controller around or can you just use it like a regular one and press the buttons as well? visa versa

Have you played the system for more then 5 minutes at your local best buy steve? Because if you have, then you would have realized everything you have said is crap.


The controllers right off the bat are more confusing then the old style because they are more sensitive. Have you played Red Steel? With these new controllers, its a whole new game compared to the old Bond styled FPS.

The FPS's are way more fun on here, but WAY more difficult to get good at because of the aiming and the motion sensing controllers.

i want to get it so badly, but i'm going to wait until i have money, and getting a 1st gen console is just risky. hahah i've heard about people getting wicked into playing and accidentally throwing their controllers through their tv screens.

attach some weights to the controller and you'd get a decent workout

I can quote old guys too, but the reality is that the system is fun as hell and i've put a shit ton of hours on it and thats just on the stock game (Wii Sports)

Come to think of it, casual gamers dont even buy systems. It wouldnt be worth it.
