What about the Kirby game that is selling like hot cakes in Japan? Isn't that coming to the West?



Around the Network

Ohhhhh goodness probably the best system of all time, wiisports resort was a wet dream mario made a huuuge comeback, brawl was amazing, mkwii unstoppable, vc let me replay so many games and play many new ones. My backlog is still like 15 games deep.

Also, the meltdowns the wii has caused the hardcore gamer haas been hilarious. I was never into forums until this gen now is so fun to still see people trying to knock the wii while its still kicking ass.



Everyday I'm hustlin'.

Awesome little console, some great gems of games hidden in it's library too (in addition to some of Nintendo's best entries into their respective franchises).

So much lost potential

Still, I've got some Skyward Sword to play, then I also want to go back and make another play-through of Super Mario Galaxy 2, and I've still got a lot I can improve in Wii Sports Resort and since watching bits of the Frozen Planet documentary on BBC I have been hankering for another swim in Endless Ocean 2.
I think I would like to play-through Red Steel 2 and No More Heroes 2 again before selling them on.

After that I am still wanting to get Trackmania, though I think I may have missed my chance at getting it cheap as in the last few weeks it seems to have gone back up to full price (£40) on Amazon, when it was down to about £15 at one point, must be the last stock. 2nd hand prices on eBay have also more than doubled and only one CEX store in the whole country has any according to their website (for £15, but it would cost me more than that to get to Stratford)



First I want to say y'all cray thinking virtual Console is expensive. For someone who grew up in the Gamecube era these games are a steal. The classics are so repayable and I play them as much as I play my wii games. I have so much playtime in this console it crazy. I have about over 2000 hours and still going strong. Its my most played system ever and favorite. Games like Smash bros brawl,Mario bros wii and Goldeneye (ok Monster hunter and punch out too) gave me 100's hours of playtime alone. The only problem is that the wii missed a shot with motion plus games. Could've been more oh well

Switch is 9th generation. Everyone else is playing on last gen systems! UPDATE: This is no longer true

Is that 2000 hours just on the Virtual Console? If so then dayum.

I would say compared to he experiences you can get online for free, or even some WiiWare games, NES, SNES and MegaDrive games are a bit pricey... there probably should have been a more variable scale (I mean 500pts for PacMan!?) as well as discounts either after a period of time, or perhaps at the choice of whichever company owns the rights.

And if the 2000 hours is total time, then I can trump that as I passed 4000 hours in November. That includes channel use like the internet channel though... but doesn't include GameCube games. If I take out all the Wii channel use, and add in an estimation for GC (around 200h) it's probably just over 3000 hours.



Wii almost dead? Little or no novelties for it? Bu-bu-bu-but Vitality Sensor?  WAAAAAH!!!
