I said 'almost' a Wii replacement as there are some quirks that need to be addressed like poor cut-scene video/audio sync and lack of support for Wiimote speaker. However these are reasonably minor given the benefits gained and it wouldn't surprise me if they are addressed by the next release.

Try lowering your FPS limit. I was experiencing this until I locked the FPS at 30. Depends on the game though, I'd rather have 60fps and slightly dodgy cutscene audio if it's an action game. :D

So sick of my massive backlog, decided to sell off a few rather than drag myself through them.
If anyone's on the lookout for Zelda OOT 3D, Dragon Quest 6 & 9, check out my sales thread for a deal :)

Thanks but sadly it didn't work (at least in Mario Kart pre-rendered intro).

From 60 it went down to 30 and stayed there but the sound was just as choppy.

Hmm, curiouser and curiouser. Tried changing the DSP audio backend to XAudio2?

GAME Australia has gone into administration so get ready for closing down sales D:

That was inevitable, they can't even stock new releases properly.

Considering you can buy brand new games from the UK for half the price I'm not surprised.

Game has been terrible ever since they were bought out by the UK parent company. When they were first getting started they were excellent, and their prices were competitive. I'm not surprised to see them go into administration, they had terrible prices, low stock, overpriced second hand games and pushy and desperate staff that obviously worked on comission.

I can't see their leaving the amrket as anything but positive, more markwet share for gametraders (and sadly, EB).

well every gametraders but 1 or 2 has gone bankrupt in WA @_@ so we are running out of options here :P

So is anyone picking up Diablo 3? JB has it for $69 which I believe is reasonable.
