Oh and congrats ^^
Congrats, Wraggster!

I got my Wii yesterday. I just finished the first dungeon. Zelda is awesome! I plan to be a regular visitor here at Wii news(im usually at PSP news, which is my homepage).
The wii is neat :thumbup:
Im gonna pick up a copy of red steel later today.
Zelda is nice and groovie anwesome, But i wanna see what that red steel is about :D
I got my Wii on launch day here in the US. I'm too poor to buy any games so I haven't been playing it much (or any games for that matter.)
^^ Red Steel is alright, the only attraction of it is that you can use the Wiimote. Otherwise it would just be a bland, online multiplayerless FPS. Oh and the controls are really sensitive. I tried the sword fighting and wasn't impressed.
The sword fighting was what I wanted red steel for.Quote:

If it doesnt offer that, then my entire interest in Rs is gone :(
Thanks for the heads up SSaxdude :cool:
I've already beaten Zelda.
Took me 32+ hours....
leave out all the spoilers. But does it stand up to the series standerds ? is it as good as the past zeldas in the end?Quote:

I got my wii, sadly, by the time i got back home, i was too tired to open it, so it sit for another four hours on my desk, untill I woke up..:thumbup:
I got my Wii on launch day and my fiancee gets pissed everytime I play Zelda. Oh well, :)
I also got my Nintendo branded component cables in today but unfortunately I am heading to D.C. and wont even get to try Zelda in "hi-res" for a week. I'll have my PSP though....
OH YEAH! I think Twilight Princess is the best in the series so far.
congratulations dudes ;)
Congrats Wraggster!
I bought mine on Amazon and am waiting for it to be delivered. C'mon City Link, don't let me down!
So glad I booked today off work :D
Got up at 5 o' clock in the morning, made my way to HMV and saw a note on the window saying they'd sold out.
This is contray to what they'd said to me a couple of days before, when they suggested I should be first in line since they only had 20 consoles and weren't preodering.
So I'm back home now and will get on with my essays, which is good I suppose.
I was dreading something like this would happen. And then it did. I hate god.:mad:
yep, got mine, have just seen the kids off to school so im gonna set it up and have a good go before they get home and I lose it forever... :lol:

Got mine at virgin this morning. They only had 6 and bugger all accessories. Oh well I got Zelda.
<rant>Game are such a bunch of 'tards they wont sell any accessories unless you preordered with them. They have 20 copies of wii play hangin on a shelf behind the counter. I just want one ffs!!! </rant>
Mine should hopefully be here by tomorrow, fingers crossed.
Thats odd 'cause they sold me a copy of Wii Play w/free remote, and I didn't pre orderQuote:

I have to say, I myself am impressed with it somewhat too :thumbup:
I wonder how real hard core fighting games like soul caluber and tekken will work with the wii mote :confused:
My mate came up to me this morning and told me he just got his Wii from Woolworths his dad brung it home woke him up at 5 in the morning i now envy him lucky sod
my Wii has still not arrived...
even though it left the parcelforce depot this morning according to the website...
it seems quite dodgy really.
from what i can tell parcellforce only deliver between 9 am and 5:30 pm...which is drawing too close for comfort...
i fear the worst!!!
Got mine this morning, but still at work - gutted!!
anyone else had a Wii go missing in action
or am just the most unlucky person in the world
just to clarify, i actually was confirmed a launch day Wii, and was even contacted when it left the depot...now it seems to have gone...
i want to cry, but i cant
Got my Wii today at 3pm, delivered to my door by parcel force, from Game! Tis awesome!
Red Steel is ok, Wii Sports is great.
Getting Zelda tomorrow! :)
