I don' t post much, actually I wouldn' t be surprised if none of the currently active members knew who I was lol but anyhow I decided to do a breif summary of my impression of my shiny new wii system. Its kind of weird when you first start using the wii, i mean from the unpackaging to when you first start playing, its so different that its kind of intimidating. But on the other hand the wii makes everything very simplified. From the system menu to the ease of being able to flick your wrist and pull out your sword in Zelda.

After playing Zelda for about 10 hours the controller felt very natural and even when playing something like Tenkaichi 2 the moves are easy to memorize, alot easier then trying to learn different button combinations. Of course the graphics aren' t " next gen" looking but that doesn' t bother me to much, there are some areas in Zelda that wowed me, there is some good lighting and some areas have a real sense of environment that helps you to fall into the Zelda world.

The Sports games are fun as a party game, but ultimately is to me at least a glorified tech demo showing you different ways they can incorporate the new controller into games. In that aspect wii sports does very well. On that note tho i' d like to say for the people out there that think the controller is just gimmicky or wot not need to take a look back at when the DS first came out. Some people said the same thing about that and the first wave of games pretty much were just glorified tech demos but nowadays they' re using it to its full potential and it has some rockin games. I think in another 2 years the wii is going to have some amazing games, showing off what its capable of, and I can' t wait.
