Does anybody have Wii Play? And if so, how is it? Would you recommend buying it?

Yeah, I'll do it.

Games I have for the Wii:

Twilight Princess
Warioware
Super Paper Mario

You could say I hit the TP "wall" before I even got to the first dungeon, but Im pretty sure I just got bored with it. I regret the buy.

Warioware is awesome, a must-have for the wii.

Super Paper Mario is the BEST game for the wii. I beat it in a little over 30 hours. If you have the wii, and you dont have Super Paper Mario, you need to get it now.

I loved WarioWare and already beat it. I got about 27 hours into TP and haven't played it for about a month now, I should get back into that. I only played about 30 minutes of SPM and was disappointed it wasn't the original format like the first 2 games.

tiger was pretty good but it had a lot of glitches.

I got a Wii on release day. I got The Godfather a while ago and it's a great game. Extremely fun with a great combat system.

bsaza2358 · 05-24-2007, 08:30 AM

Super Mario Galaxy comes out in August/September, and it looks incredible. Right now, I'm going to get by on TP and Godfather until Super Smash Bros. comes out in a few weesks. That game is going to be off the hook!

I got it back in November, I worked at EBGames at the time, and I knew when we were getting the shipment in, however it was the day after Thanksgiving, and others knew as well, me and my cousin went to get PS3's, we went at 11 PM, there were no PS3's in, however, there were 6 Wii's in, we both got one, he sold his.

People didn't understand why I waited 8 hours to get one, I tell them (the same people who don't have one now) if they would rather wait 8 hours or wait 6 months (I just remembered also that day I waited 8 hours was my birthday, rofl.)

Anyways, what we have... 2 Wii Remotes, 2 Gamecube Controllers (Instead of the classic ones.) Zelda Twilight Princess, Wii Sports (Sold Madden) Zelda Ocarina of Time (Gamecube version) Mario Kart (Gamecube Version) Mario Sunshine (Gamecube version).

Virtual Console games I got - Mario 64, Mario Kart 64, Street Fighter 2, Super Mario World, Zelda a Link to the Past, Star Fox 64, Tecmo Bowl... (I think thats it.)

I really like it so far, but just like every other new system, the big games are yet to hit the shelves (disregarding Zelda.)

I look forward to the titles that are coming out as well as the PS3's because soon they will have some great games out.

We got one last sunday, and I really like it. All we have is Wii Sports, and Madden

Wii Sports - super fun to play w/ family. Tennis Pro level of 2073 or something. Woot

Madden - Tried once, incredibly akward to try and tackle

And the thing about the Wii, I thought it would be a lot of movement, but I found out that you can play just as well laying down, just moving your wrist

WinslowBodden · 05-24-2007, 09:23 AM

I never had any trouble tackling in Madden, in fact I really liked the controls.

The one thing that could get difficult is passing, because its not hard to throw interceptions if you are off at all.

bsaza2358 · 05-24-2007, 10:01 AM

I haven't tried Madden yet. I heard the playbooks were very limited. I'm going to wait for 2008, when they work any kinks out and are able to use the Wii-mote more.

jballa838 · 05-26-2007, 03:42 PM

The wii has more potential then 360 or ps3 imo.

RoyHall#1 · 05-26-2007, 03:46 PM

No chance. It depends on what you mean by "potential" but you are wrong. People use the technology in the PS3 to help cure cancer.

Smokey Joe · 05-26-2007, 03:46 PM

The Wii isn't a true gamers system. I am a gamer, and I like the PS3 the best and have one, and planing on getting the 360 after halo 3 comes out. I like to game.

To me, the Wii is a fun system but gets tiring and boring after a while. It is something, IMO, that would bring out when you have friends over or something.

Smokey Joe · 05-26-2007, 03:48 PM

Also, the only reason I want to buy a Wii right now, is for Twilight Princes and Manhunt II

RoyHall#1 · 05-26-2007, 03:50 PM

Twilight Princess is a gamer's game on the Wii. What is this Manhunt and when does it come out?

jballa838 · 05-26-2007, 03:51 PM

Once the wii has some ill games like Mario Galaxy and others, it could rival the others.

Pilots could do simulations on the wii and become better pilots or doctors could do doctor simulations and become better doctors and fight cancer like in Trauma Center the video game,,

LMAO, I'm sure moving a remote around would help them become better at their profession.

I absolutely love Wii and how interactive it is. My personal favorite is Home Run Derby b/c I hit it out of the park every time

WinslowBodden · 05-26-2007, 04:43 PM

Alot depends on how Mario Party 8 is, it could be a fantastic party game, or crap.

It's going to be virtually the same game as the past Mario Party's with much-expanded mini-games and some new characters, etc.

If you liked the old Mario Party's you will like this one a little more at the very least.
