Originally posted by NSNick Yeah, so far I've seen two friends slam their hands into a couch, pretty good too. I'm sure I can expect more funnies with Wii parties to come. (edited by Racer Xeo on 12-03-06 01:43 AM) |

Hm, what I really want to know is are the Wiimotes surviving this abuse? Nintendo's history shows they should, but after the N64 and Gamecube's controllers... :-/ | |||

It's nearly impossible to find a Wii these days. All these crazy ticket schemes, you know. I doubt we'll be able to get one until demand is finally satisfied. | |||

Originally posted by HyperHacker Yeah, every story I've heard online has said the controller was fine. Even if it flew apart. |

Remember when people flushed Game Boy Advances, and they still worked?
Edit: Japanese VC tour. They've got a lot more than us at the moment. (edited by Racer Xeo on 12-03-06 08:38 PM) |

I actually had two Wiis for a while. I signed up for a service that monitors online retailers and alerts you as soon as they add stock. Twenty minutes after I signed up I go an alert for a bundle at Walmart.com, I bought it but later changed my mind and canceled it because I wasn't that interested in the games that were bundled with it.
A few days later I got one as Christmas gift from a friend who had went into Wal-Mart looking for one just when they got an order in. Then a few days after that a Wii came in the mail. I checked walmart.com, and for some reason only the games had canceled and they had still sent the Wii. So I called them up and they said that if I brought it into the store they would refund my purchase price and shipping (although I had to argue with the store manager on the second point). I still get several alerts a day from that monitoring service. I got the Wii so I could play first party Nintendo games. The motion sensor controller isn't a that big of a deal to me, I'd actually rather just sit still to play a game. Also, I don't even use the wrist strap. Just seems silly. |

Even if you are a sane, intelligent person who doesn't need the wrist strap, you'd better keep it on, because the person to your left who doesn't have a Wii isn't going to if you don't, and they may break stuff. | |||

Originally posted by neotransotakuOriginally posted by NSNick Heh, that's sad. I never thought of intoxicated people playing it, it indeed could be a bad idea. And the wrist strap is kinda comfortable, so I'll definately wear it. I reeeeaaaallllyyyy can't wait to make my Mythbusters, Dr. Phil, and Hank Hill Miis.... |

When I get my Wii, I plan on using the wrist strap that came with my digital camera. | |||

Originally posted by neotransotaku A lot of those images are obvious fakes because the TV is still on. A CRT would pretty much implode, and an LCD/plasma would pour all over the place. Not entirely sure about a projection TV (which aren't designed for games anyway) but I doubt they'd still be displaying a picture with a giant fucking hole in the screen either. |

Wii Swiss Launch is coming near. Tomorrow Night, I will not be online.. waiting for Wii in line (The second time in Switzerland, that a console is sold out at its PAL-Release before it is released !)
Attached some Images - One is my first Wii-Game and the first Wii-Purchase of a PAL-Wii-Game in Switzerland (Or at least Zürich) - The second is the European Demo Kiosk. Nice, isn't it? Please excuse the image quality, but the only alternative I have is my GBCamera ^^ |

Originally posted by Alastor I guess we could be taking turns, but I normally just find that annoying and would rather they just play by themselves, in which case they wouldn't be watching how I hold the controller. Then again, I don't really know anyone with the right combination of poor grip and lack of common sense that they could actually break something with a game controller. And if I did I wouldn't let them anywhere near my stuff. |

I've heard stories about people getting black eyes, breaking glass, and even breaking a TV.
The best stories are still the ones when I get a grp of people in the store telling me the things they've done to get a Wii. Don't these people have jobs/school? |

If I had a job, I might consider to call in sick just to try pulling this off at least once in my life.
However, since i'm in college I rather not miss a few lectures, considering how much we learn in so little time now. xD |

Here we go, Cons:
I wanted to test the shop channel so I connected; I have gotten about 7-10 server errors by now, when I was downloading a game just to see how it works, the game download froze and it said to try again, and no matter how many times I try it wont download it (1000 points wasted). Updating = Very slow I'm not sure if those errors have to do with the big problem with Puerto Rico's Internet connections... |

I didn't have many problems with the shopping channel last night. Only one disconnect (I wanted to list all VC-Titles). |
