Post Your New Console Pics - Nov 19, 2006 11:54
Edit: Formerly " Wii is here" . I figured I was being too specific though. If anybody here has a PS3, post shots of that as well.

Well, not quite, not by an hour and a half where I live at any rate. So I thought I' d post a thread for uploading pics of your Wii' s.

Nope, no dumb Freudian jokes or anything.

Please tellme you got your 360 free, and your GoW copy ona bogof deal....

It sounds to me like you may be losing money if you paid for both.

I' m just messing... Wii is the kinda console I have to play for myself to see if
it' s a fad, I can no longer go on the opinions of anyone else, as pretty much
everyone seems to be buying the Wii " because it' s cute" ....

When is the Wii out in the Uk? I' m not pre-ordering it as I' m assuming that
Nintendo' ll cater for everyones needs, so I' m just going to walk into a store
and pick it up. If \i don' t get it on launch, then I' ll just buy the Wii day 2when
compulsive gamers have returned it...

Aye? Maybe girls say that??

When since any gamer brought a Nintendo console on the way it looks?

Its Obviously becuase they want to play the lastest Nintendo games which you' ll never experience the class of gameplay Nintendo games mostly offer .. ZElda TP with the Wiimote is a perfect example.

Hmmm. I just can' t wait for it to come out, it will end the argument
that is going on in my head. Half of me is nay he other half is saying yay.

If I don' t like it, I' ll give to 6 year old cousin and she can smash it to pieces, she
loves The WindWaker, but hates the idea Wii... Which I found very odd..

It seems that she' d be more at home with a PS3 controller in her hand as she
turns the pad left and right REGARDLESS of what kind of game she is playing.

I still think the Wii is a bit " complicated" for the average child gamer (that' s
anything below erm... 6?)

I suppose it does depend on what kind of game they' re playing...

RE: Wii is Here!!! - Nov 19, 2006 13:16
Really, i' d say that Wii is more aimed at younger people.. The majority of older
people are fickle...

Using a first-hand experience as an example... WAAAAYYY back when the 360
was released, I saw 6 business women crowded around Kameo (of all games)
faffing about " how pretty her wings are" ...

If we are talking about non-gamers, (who when it comes to games are clearly
stupid).

The majority of them are graphics whores, visually, the first thing that draws them
are the graphics. Hence why when the Wii was right next to Gears of War in my
local Virgin, there was a crazy crowd around Gears amidst mumbles of (It looks like a movie this, and wow it looks almost like real life that..) These are comments coming from guys in suits. The Wii wasn' t being played, and neither was Gears because it' s too gory to put up apparently.

I still think Nintendo' s target audience is the 6-13 range (minus their own system
selling games like Brawl, Zelda, Metroid etc..)

Yeah, I think so. Females are also one of the primary audiences they' re trying to catch. If they succeed, they' ll make gaming truly mainstream, which could, at the very least, be a good thing for peoples perceptions with gaming.

I really don' t agree with Tiz saying that non-gamers are graphic whores. From my experiences, graphics is what they are least interested in. They find the graphics fascinating but it doesn' t make people interested in actually playing a game.
Videogames look kinda boring when all you do is press small buttons on a pile of plastic in order to move a character on the screen. It doesn' t matte rhow good it looks if it looks boring.
The Wii-mote however looks more fun. It might be a gimmick, it might look stupid, but it sure looks more fun and I think non-gamers would definitely prefer the Wii before 360 or PS3.

You can' t call your mom a graphics whore even if she was one because associating your mom with a word that has anything to do with the word whore is sooooo wrong.
Dads can be real whores though

No,she just doesnt care about graphic.
She plays XBLA.

Dad only plays Gears of war,test drive unlimited,he loves the graphic,the rest games he says on the 360 looks so-so.

I actually though you had a real ps3 for a moment there (seen enough of that shiny monstrosity) thats why i didn' t even bother enlarging the photo. Nice job though, looks like thats the closest most of us will get to a real ps3 for a while.
Hmm you thought genji was bad i think Mobile Suite Gundam Crossfire for ps3 takes the honors now. 1up absolutely panned it with a score 2/10!! TIme to change disks.

Yeah, Genji was disappointing, that' s why i said it sucks. I wasn' t expecting anything from Gundam Crossfire, but i loved the original Genji so that was seriously disappointing.

Traded in my Zune today for an iPod Nano. I know, I know... craziness. The Zune was really giving me problems though. The player started skipping again and was doing it far too frequesntly. I tried reloading all the songs again and the problem continued. I just couldn' t take it.

I got the 8Gig iPod Nano for the same price so they just swapped it out. I also got the Nike+ add on which I' ve been wanting for a long time. Once the Zune' s kinks are worked out I' ll get it again. As of now I reccomend waiting.

It' d make sense for Zune to use WinMediaPlayer right? It' s not some funky-bizzare media player like the kind that came with mine right? Well that' s disappointing.

It' s a Zune player. It' s basically WMP11 which is a big rip off of iTunes. the Zune player is a pain though and is extremely resource intensive. I sucks up ram like nobody' s business. I don' t know. The Zune had plenty of perks but it had problems in areas that should have been MS' s primary focus.

I' m extremely happy with my iPod Nano though. No skips, software problems, nor glitchy behavior. The Nike+ add on is phenominal! I used it today for a run and it gave me constant updates on my distance and how my run was going (the music dims down and a girls voice gives you a brief update). When I was done I plugged the Nano into my laptop and it uploaded all my run' s info to Nike. It put everything into a nice little chart with all my info listed (how hast I was going, distance, calories burned, when I kicked in my motivational music, etc.). It' s a 8 gig too so even though it doesn' t hold nearly as much music as the zune did it doesn' t really matter. I already have 3 days worth of music on there and it' s not full.
