Paper Mario is pretty fun and although I haven't played it yet Resident Evil: The Umbrella Chronicles is out now and it looks pretty good.iccarus wrote:We finally got out Wii!
Now I need a hit list of games to get. I'm thinking Super Mario Galaxy and Metroid Prime: Corruption to start. What else is a must have? I already have Twilight Princess for GC, so I think stuff I don't have right now is more of a priority.

Cool, the Wii is aweome. You're gonna love it.Unblessed wrote:UPS has the Nintedo Wii I ordered. Should be here tomorrow. Then I'll be playing me some Super Monkey Ball![]()
Might have to order the original NES games for it, too. Gauntlet II anyone?"Red Warrior Shot the Food!"
At work I'm playing: "Counsel the worker".. it's not as fun as you might think.

I'm sure you got WiiSports with the system. If you get an extra controller get the one with Wiiplay. If you get the zapper gun shell get the one with Link's Crossbow Training. It's a first person/third person/on rails shooter in the Zelda universe.

I was going to say I saw it a week or two ago in a store without the Zelda shooter but I looked it up and what I saw was the cheaper third party zapper shell, NOT Nintendo's which, atleast according to gamestop.com, always comes with the Zelda game. Hm, maybe they're getting snatched up in the holiday rush.myron wrote:got the first two...having problems finding the zapper shell in any form...Todd Luck wrote:What he said.Daniel Jackson wrote:Paper Mario is pretty fun and although I haven't played it yet Resident Evil: The Umbrella Chronicles is out now and it looks pretty good.iccarus wrote:We finally got out Wii!

Heh, I used to be a hardcore WoW player two years ago. I wonder how much the game has changed since. I know for sure that all my tier 2 gear is practically useless now. All those hours raiding became a huge waste.Unblessed wrote:only been able to play my Wii for an hour and 15 minutes. just soo busy w/ work.

Well, I'd like to claim that I'm playing Mario Galaxy, but since I can't buy a Wii anywhere (dang, I should've bought one when I had the chance), I bought the Zelda DS Lite and am playing Zelda Phantom Hourglass for the Nintendo DS.
Using the stylus for running and fighting and just about everything else...takes some getting used to, but it's become intuitive after a while. It's still a FAR better game than Wind Waker ever was.
