Got A Wii Tonight - NOS2Go4Me - 06-19-2007

They're in REALLY short supply right now in North Bay. Found one at Blockbuster for 10 bucks over the WalMart price, so I got it. It just came in this afternoon and I bought it at 6PM. Then I got the EDTV cables and gamepack with an extra controller.

This also gave me a reason to hook up my Component input box so I can finally game on my PS2 in 1080i (GT4 et al).

Wii on our projector is VERY sweet. :D

If anyone is looking for these sams club in richmond hill had about 30 or them at 7:00 p.m.

By the way, just some advice. They chew through AA's pretty quick.

Buy some rechargables, or do what I did:

I have two of these, because we have four remotes. They work like a charm.

Cool, thanks man!

I got the Nyko HD/EDTV cables, they work great.

congrats man. how did you get your hands on one?!


Got A Wii Tonight - hardk0re - 06-19-2007

now just buy a wiikey, no short supply of those :P

Only problem I have with the WII is the games available , nintendo has more children games than they do adult. Xbox 360 really has the most game selection.


Got A Wii Tonight - hardk0re - 06-19-2007

Play the games, they are fun even if for kids. The controls make it most fun.

Luck of the draw. Been looking around for a couple of months, finding nothing. Last night, we found one that was like hours old on the shelf (behind the counter, really) at Blockbuster. I grabbed that in a hurry.

The Wii definitely needs a keyboard though. Prolly took 5 minutes to point and shoot that message.

i would pay the extra for something that lets me use a keyboard as typing this on the wii right now is annoying...
