Nintendo Wii stealing show at E3 - Page 2

HaydenAsche · 05.12.2006, 10:16 PM

Ever heard of resizing a picture? Jeesh!

Anyways, I probably won't be getting a wii. Video games are for nerds.

HaydenAsche · 05.12.2006, 10:23 PM

Nope. I just type fast and get on the internet every day. It isn't hard.

Alex's Trip · 05.12.2006, 10:25 PM

So do I! I just don't have much to say I guess...

HaydenAsche · 05.12.2006, 10:30 PM

I finished my school's 9 week keyboarding class in 3 days. I type like 120 words at my slowest.

Alex's Trip · 05.12.2006, 10:34 PM

I type pretty average. My right hand needs some work, I only use my index finger. It is a bad habit. I keep trying to break it. My left hand is great though.

HaydenAsche · 05.12.2006, 10:37 PM

I'm completely twacked on coffee right now so I'm probably typing way way way faster than I usually would.

Alex's Trip · 05.12.2006, 10:58 PM

Last year when I took a typing test I got like 70 words a minute. I'm sure that'll improve.

golden child · 05.12.2006, 11:16 PM

70 is pretty good acually. thats about what im at, its average i think.

im starting to take interest in the wii, despite the name. they defiantly are really original, coming out with real GAMES not just simulations and couterstrike clones. i do think the other consoles focus to much on graphics at the price of lame games (coincidently, they have amazing graphics)

to sum it up, id take an AMAZING text based game anyday over a glossy overpriced high graphic shit game.

nintendo has a pretty good line of exclusive/original games

Alex's Trip · 05.12.2006, 11:21 PM

Totally. One thing I thought was funny was how many of SY fans were so against the remote controller. I would have thought they'd have been more open to it. But I think things are turning around. In the old board there was a lot of hate for it. Not so much now.

EyeballGrowth · 05.12.2006, 11:29 PM

In all game magazines Nintendo 64 was code named " Ultra 64 " until it came out. The gamecube was the Nintendo Dolphin. And lots of the games they gradually announced had different titles in the magazines too. Same goes today I guess.

People rag on it cause they just remember how the gamecube turned out to be more aimed towards little kids.

golden child · 05.12.2006, 11:30 PM

i think it will be cool for some games, but saying its the only controller is pretty lame and really puts developers in a corner as far as what they can do. so hopefully they have some sort of expansion or peripherial that will act as a traditional controller, which i guess is what eyeball posted on the last page, but he said it may only work with the classic games which will be inheritly LAME

Alex's Trip · 05.12.2006, 11:32 PM

I think I heard somewhere that the remote controller can be turned sideways and be used that way...don't take my word for it though.

EyeballGrowth · 05.12.2006, 11:33 PM

I'm excited for sonic, zelda, metroid, mario and all those. But I'm really excited for the Flight Sims and red steel

And they may make Nights into Dreams 2

krastian · 05.12.2006, 11:43 PM

If they come out with Nights then I might consider buying it.....I'm personally not really feeling it right now.

EyeballGrowth · 05.13.2006, 12:36 AM

The controller is gonna be awesome because Not all games will use the remote, and some will be optional. Nintendo knows not everyone is gonna want to use it and that's why they made the snes looking pad. Lots of the new games, specifically platformers, will use that. It's gonna be awesome. There'll be awesome games that use the remote like Red Steel, sonic, metroid etc, and other ones that use the classic controller. It's gonna be all kinds of awesome stuff at once

atsonicpark · 05.13.2006, 05:19 PM

Uh...

anyone who honestly has ever supported the playstation or xbox over nintendo is a fucking idiot, as I've always said.

XBOX = NO GOOD GAMES.
PS2 = Good games from the ps1 era and maybe 2 or 3 from the new era.

360 is bullshit. "OIH SHIT FIRST PERSON SHOOTERZZZZZZ!!!!!!" You know, no first person shooter is even as good as goldeneye. Halo is boring as fuck.

Gamecube had about 8 BRILLIANT games.

And Wii looks like it'll have more.

Nintendo is going to re-dominate like it should have been doing for years except too many people get caught up in "OHHH IT'S TECHNOLOGICAL!" Xbox 360 has nothing to do with video games. Fuck Microsoft and Sony.

Nintendo for life. Eat a dick.

atsonicpark · 05.13.2006, 05:20 PM

Oh..

And I can type 150 words per minute, haha.

The world record is 1..79 I believe.

EyeballGrowth · 05.13.2006, 07:12 PM

I think people should listen to Atsonicpark

Seriously, XBOX = 100% awful american games

I have had may game systems, but xbox gave me the most crap, a lot of time it would take forever to read games, and I would have to open and close it a whole bunch of times to get it to work. Out of frustration my brother threw his shoe at it and it stoped working, piece of crap!
