Love it. I will probably buy this one at some point, but I have a ton of Strategy RPGs still to finish on PS2.

Both.

Is there a site for the Wii that's similar to teamxbox.com?

Some of my favorite Nintendo sites:

www.gonintendo.com

www.thetanooki.com

www.nintendoworldreport.com

Thanks! I'll check those out.

yes, but only ranked matches

D'oh! Just ordered it - guess I need another nunchuck too, now.

I don't know if this was discussed already but if you guys haven't tried the "Blazing Lazers" download from the TG16 games then do it.

It was the coolest game back in the day.

Well, one of my new kittens just chewed through my Wii's sensor bar, the cord is very thin. I thought my Wii was completely broken for a while, looks like I'm out of Zelda for a few days and out $16 with shipping for a new sensor bar.

you can get a wireless sensor bar from EB/GS. I forget the retail price, but it works perfectly and is quite convenient

Does your Wiimote ever not work? Sometimes mine just blinks and blinks and nothing. Even if I change the batteries - nothing.

not really

you try taking the battery cover off and reconnecting? how about the red button on the system?

try pushing home and reconnecting that way with 1 + 2

Yeah I think they're $19.99 at Best Buy too. I was going to suggest the same thing but I've not heard any reviews on them. I'm actually kinda interested.

I have one

I forget to turn it off sometimes though

Try re-syncing it.

IGN has a review for the NYKO one. From what I remember it was a good review. You get more distance than the wired one. Problem is there is no auto-off feature. Forget to shut it down and kiss those batteries goodbye.

depends how long you forget. I've forgotten for over 2 hours, then noticed the blue light was on, and it's currently on the first set.

I've done that a few times actually.

Yeah, but if it had an auto-off it would just switch off during gameplay.

Well there you go. A DVDtalker that actually owns one that can give better insight.

My setup is in the basement therefore I would never accidentally notice the blue light on. I'd be screwed.

I started really using mine out of laziness after I set up the new entertainment center. We normally just keep it in the travel case in the event we feel the need to take it to a friends house.

After using candles to play the Wii one time, it really doesn't surprise me that this thing works so well, or lasts a while on batteries

That's cool. I hate the range of the wired one because I can't sit and play from my computer desk. Just kidding! But seriously, there are times when I'm trying to read Wii set up help or Friend Codes from the Net but I have to stand up and stretch over the desk with my arm out to use the Wii Remote. That sucks while clicking out long ass Wii Friend Codes. That's the main reason why I've only put in one so far.

got mine in from TRU a few days ago, and am loving it .. thank goodness for this, as my 360 is off for repair again ... any DVDtalkers want to add me, my friend code is now in my sig

When I went to WalMart earlier today to buy the Hot Fuzz DVDs, I checked the case to see if they had any Wii systems in stock. I've only seen a Wii in a store three times, and it's been at a WalMart each time - the day I bought mine in December, the day my cousin bought his in January, and I saw a couple of them in the case about a month or so ago.

Anyway, when I checked today, to my surprise, the WalMart store had at least 12 Wii systems in stock. I say at least because the case was totally full, and there wasn't room for any more of them at all. I was so shocked to see so many in stock. I saw more Wii systems today at that one WalMart than I've seen since it was first released combined.

According to Hudson, Galaga '90 will be released this Monday! YES!

Hopefully the other four games on my wishlist are coming soon as well!
