Well, happened to be in town today and big poster in Game - Wii back in stock !!! So I've now got mine :D

 

Clever stuff, and a pleasant change from the norm. PS3 and 360s are much better than their predecessors in terms of graphics etc, but the Wii is something a bit different.

 

Been playing Wii sports, boxing is a laugh :D Like the Tennis too, and the golf.

 

And holy crap is Red Steel difficult, still getting used to it ! Just not used to the controls. Don't normally play FPS on consoles, but fancied the idea of a sword fight :eyebrows:

 

The console is neat too, nice and small. All in all I'm enjoying it :) Although switched it off for a rest and have settled down to watch Aliens: Directors Cut :cool:

I find it impossible to play! And very frustrating controlling your man. A real fcuking ball ache. And the firing cursor is tiny! And to zoom in while shooting - you move you're hand backwards and fowards. What PITA that is!

 

Guys, don't you realise that it's going to do serious damage to our dick hands ? Still, don't know about the rest of you - but I'm just as good with other.

 

Nah - am trading in Red Steel crap - a big thumbs down from me :(

Hi, I'm from the 20th century and just got a Wii!

 

I bloody love the Wii Sports Golf, so far I've got my handicap down to -/+0 on the full nine holes, was just wondering what scores everyone has got in the two years since this thing came out?

Gaz, I too just got one :D, my Tennis rank is 874 I think, it's around there.

 

Get Mario Kart, it's the most fun game I've played in ages, get some wheels for more fun, the free online racing is great too

I have a ridiculous 'professional' score of around 2200 for the tennis, my highest score on bowling is 248, and I've played the golf a bit, but none of the boxing. Wii Play has some fun things on there too.

 

As people say, its fantastic for an accompaniment to an evening's drinking, like we did on NYE.

 

The Lego Star Wars and Indiana Jones trilogies and Batman are just superb as one or two player games IMO. It's so much fun beating everyone to pieces, including your 'partner' a lot of the time ;)

 

Zelda is just amazing. Tomb Raider Underworld had a fault, but now I'm past that, and that's very good too :)

I had a game of ten pin bowling with my mates son.It was a very close game but i managed to win in the end.

Oh did i forget to mention he is only five.

But hey a win is a win.:nana::nana:

 

Some people say that of a 'NA' and a Nova, but that's normally shot down in flames too.. :)

 

My 12yr old whoops my butt at mario kart.. :(

 

It's a great console though.. not as graphical, but some of the games are amazing (and annoying).

 

Carnaval Games is another good multiplayer game.

Hmm, are you sure about that? I highly doubt that's possible seeing as how it gets exponentially harder the higher your score gets.

 

But then I can't get over around 800 on Tennis, same for boxing but I've not played those as much.

 

I'm around 1300 for both golf and bowling, my highest score on bowling is 227 I think.

I'll take a photo for you at lunchtime. ;)

 

My 'bullet point' thingy is up in the titles of the game. It looks weird, and I'm pretty good at it. You have to beat the computer players 3 games to nothing, and without them scoring much in the games themselves to win those sort of points. They are 1900 and 2000 respectively.

 

I'm very competitive you see, much to the frustration of my girlfriend :)
