Nintendo Wii MEGATHREAD!

Get Rayman Raving Rabbids TV PARTY 1orion. It's currently $39 at GAME and it has much more better and fun uses for the board than tell you that you are fat . It's a compilation of minigames, one of which allows you to use the board as pedals for acceleration, dancing and even sitting on it and using your butt to steer. Sheer madness.

piratescratch, I think I'm off to pre-order that set. Sega's light gun games on the Wii have been top notch. Especially Ghost Squad. Since this is a new game bult from scratch for the Wii and not some port, this is going to be one progressive light gun shooter ala Umbrella Chronicles and Disaster.

Hey Stompy, is that at all GAME outlets? Because that looks like a pretty good price.

Thanks!

Could not agree more, its worth getting at $60 too, it only took a day for me and my mates to "finish" the game (unlocking every mini-game) but we are still going trying to get the records for the funner games. The large number of dancing games and band games get boring and repetitive, but the rest of the games (especially the toboggan, motorbike, and shooting games) are fantastic, a real step up from the 2nd Rabbid game.

It's also hilarious to watch others play, and its pretty quick (though not Wario quick) unlike Mario Party.

If you want to get the Shaun White Snowboarding game for the Wii, do not expect to be playing it on the Wii-fit board for long, it really really kills your knees playing on the board, and it is far more fun and intuitive using just the Wii-mote. It's a nice looking and easy to pick up and play game, but does not come close to taking the top snowboarding game spot from SSX tricky.

Anyone have any thoughts regarding the Nerf N-Strike Wii game?

The game looks a bit simple but I like the idea of having a nerf gun to muck around with and double up for some House Of The Dead action.

On that note, I also realised that the House Of The Dead Overkill has a bundle with 2 Wii gun holders. Does anyone think these will be any good?

I already have a Nyko Perfect Shot but I hate the fact that you need to remove the Wii strap everytime you want to use it.

From a review I read, they said that the guns that come with the Bang Bang box version of Overkill aren't ideal. I'll update when I get mine this week for a proper impression. I too have a Nyko Perfect Shot and find it almost perfect. The main draw was the graphic novel included in that Overkill box. Haven't tried that Nerf game, not too interested actually and the videos for it doesn't fill me with much confidence. The attachment for it looks a treat though.

Also Deadly Creatures on Wii is amazing. Not for the squeamish or fearful of 8 legged creepy crawlies, but if you can stomach them, be prepared for a very unique adventure.

I've finally Homebrewed my Wii and have Tatsunoko vs Capcom on the way. Hopefully comes in tomorrow. Also ordered No More Heroes (for bloody goodness) and Tales of Symphonia 2 from Canada since our dollar is doing relatively well against it.

HUZZAH! Godd work Stompy! You wont regret it!!

No more heroes blood, I found so excesive, I wondered why they cut it out of oz version instead of just giving the game an MA rating

Tatsunoko ROCKS!

I wanna know if Madworld is gonna be hacked to bits in aus or not. Looks interesting. I really like the black and white!

I actually just got Tatsunoko vs Capcom in the mail today at work. I can't wait to get home. So much fighting goodness this week, with Street Fighter 4 as well. The process for Homebrewing was simple TC, but it took me a while to figure out where to put what in the SD Card.

No More Heroes was purposefully done to be only bloody for the US version. The Japanese and European PAL versions were blood-less. This was a conscious decision by the creator, I think to highlight the bloodlust the US has for their games.

Madworld has been given the green light by the OFLC (Australian Classification board) and will not be getting any sort of censoring or cuts. Which is good news. I guess the art style and cartoon-like excessive violence isn't realistic enough for the censors.

Good stuff Stompy.

The TW Hack is easy.

I wonder what that says about me wanting the bloody version of heroes?

No cutting on Madworld hey? Cool! But the OFLC have some major inconsistencies. I usually see the ratings for movies and sometimes they don't justify the rating. Kil Bill "R"? Zack and Miri make a Porno "R"?!?!? It only got an R coz it has the word Porno in the title. Bet if it didnt it would scrape in as an MA movie.....
