Forums - Nintendo - Getting a Wii.

I have money to spare and I'm going to purchase a Wii, to see what the 'hype' is about. I admit I'm a Sony fanboy and I've never been attracted to the Wii, but that might be down to the fact that I've only played it for around an hour at a time round at my friend's house. Anyway, it was a Wii or a 360 and I do not trust M$ is any way shape or form, nor do I like their consoles.

I was wondering which games you can reccomend. I don't like any sort of Mario or Zelda games and I heard that there is a good FPS coming to the Wii, so I'll be getting that. Any 'hardcore' games you'd like to suggest?

Also, how is the online? It is as lag-plagued as people say, or is that made up?

Thanks.

No More Heroes is probably your best bet if you don't like Mario, Zelda, or Metroid.

I've only played Brawl online and that was a lot of lag, but that's to be expected.

 



Try Metroid Prime 3: Corruption or Fire Emblem: Path of Radiance.



Pixel Art can be fun.

You don't like Mario or Zelda? Why?




Nintendo still doomed?

The type of game just doesn't appeal to me. I find Mario Kart repetitive and Zelda just bores me.

I like SSB though.

Taste in games varies, lol.

well if you like SSB then pick up SSBB and I suggest No More Heroes



try battalion wars 2, a criminally overlooked title for the wii. Also as mentioned before no more heroes and fire emblem path of radiance are brilliant games and very hardcore. Also if you never played it on ps2 or even if you have get okami.



nintendo and sega fan since i was old enough to hold a game controller.

note: my games collection on my profile is only 20ish% complete, i've got a boatload of 360,saturn and dreamcast games to add and a few ps3 games, thanks :)

 

don't get a wii



                                                                           

right now wii is thin on 1st person shooters, there is only metroid prime and medal of honor heroes 2, you can try some on-rails shooters like resident evil chronicles if thats your thing.

upcoming games recommendations

fatal frame 4
deadly creatures
the conduit
dead rising
Brothers in Arms: Road to Hill 30
Star Wars: The Force Unleashed
Tenchu 4

And don't forget to pick up a load of gamecube classics like pikmin and eternal darkness.
