I busy playing Zelda at the minute, not played a Zelda game before but I have to say it is not too bad.

Not too sure about online playing with the Wii. I haven't got any games that support it yet.

I'm sure Brettster will be along soon to enlighten us :)

Kazi · February 1, 2007

lexus boy · February 2, 2007

I just have people who can get me whatever I want :P

Most people are waiting around York too.

There are LOADS round my way.

Can you use any old SD card for storage rather than the £30 ones Nintendo provide? I know you can use Gamecube memory cards but they have minimal storage capacity.

I quite fancy a Wii....

As in my signature, my Wii shoul dbe online later if I can config it to my Macs, if not then im hoping my wireless router from Linksys will be back in the next 1-2 weeks! Its only been an ongoing problem for 4 months! Shocking support! Anyway, that was off topic!!

Must say, my arms are killing me after beasting out the boxing game for a few hours! :D

brothers xbox 360 is the way to go!!!!!

I have a 360 and I just got new 1080p TV ready for the ps3 which I had to pay £100 to preorder !!

and while the 360 looks gorgeous and im such a fan of it I even made my own website about it. I think the Wii is the best of the bunch, It has some unique games and nintendo make the best games, always have. Simple as that.

Kazi: will add you asap :)

We can send messages yes, but not play online yet. Just found out after a quick search, doesn't look like nintendo have the infrastructure ready yet for online gaming

Kazi · February 8, 2007

Postie is no longer greyed out, no idea why you others are?! :duh:

Kazi · February 8, 2007

On another note, been playing Call of Duty 3. Its brilliant! :D

Brettster · February 10, 2007

Adding new people is a joke on the Wii, It seems to be random as to when it will authorize someone. why they thought this idea was good is beyond me, they used the same system for the DS and that really spoilt online gaming too. Microsoft sure got Xbox Live right !!

Kazi · February 10, 2007

I remember years ago reading an article on MS about online gaming and it did say that thats one thig they will master. Not one to praise MS for anything as they have little to brag about in term of boundary pushing..but yeah, I get where you're coming from Brettster.

Nintendo have been far to security conscious!

As for the DS, ve only ever played Tetris and Mario Kart online to complete strangers. Don't know anyone with a DS.....
