There is a place online with all kinds of covers. They have custom Wii covers there.

Don't go to that abomination. cdcovers is the bottom of the barrel on the net. The quality is ass and that's putting it nicely. The users there just rip the covers from the original custom sites, change the resolution, distort images and basically shit all over the original quality cover before upping them there.

Try these instead:

Wii Sports

Link's Crossbow Training

Groucho 01-03-08 10:50 AM

Of those, I'm interested in Harvey Birdman (plays like the Ace Attorney games) and maybe Endless Ocean.

Michael Corvin 01-03-08 10:53 AM

Endless Ocean is the only one that looks appealing this month.

Same here. Still not sure which version of Harvey I will get since it is on the PSP as well.

Just another update on the Perfect Shot:

Combined with Ghost Squad, this thing is just "this" close to feeling exactly like a light gun game...high praise for both the peripheral and the gun.

Here's to hoping that more shooting games come with Ghost Squad-like calibration options. :up:

DodgingCars 01-03-08 10:22 PM

Nitrobike has me curious

Were you able to find a copy at Target?

No. A buddy at work lent me GS and RE:UC to play with. GS is a lot of fun. I hold the Perfect Shot two handed...tactical style, and it's spot on without the reticle. Looking forward to more arcade shooters with a calibration option. Bring on HotD!

My hatred for UC knows no bounds...lot's of "what the fuck am I supposed to be doing?!" There's also some lag in the response to moving the gun, the pistol is worthless, and trying to hold the Nunchuck and the Perfect Shot for the absurd number of enemies is just tiresome. I ended up losing the gun and just sitting on the damn couch. I probably won't even bother finishing the game.

rocketsauce 01-04-08 01:01 PM

I just got a wii last night and loving it so far. So whats the deal with friend codes? If i enter someones do they get a message saying I want to be friends with them? I would like to get some friends from here so feel free to add me. My code is in my sig. Any other tips and tricks would be appreciated.

Also where do i enter other peoples codes?

pinata242 01-04-08 01:02 PM

No messages on addition or deletion. You have to communicate outside of the Wii to exchange friend codes.

Michael Corvin 01-04-08 01:03 PM

Nope. Both people have to be 'aware' of the code. The wii doesn't let you know someone added your code or vice versa. You have to swap codes and both enter them.

Dragon Fly 01-05-08 10:13 PM

Man... I have an edge card with $250 and no Gamestop anywhere has a Wii. :( I want one!!!

No kidding. I have some gift cards and want a Wii. I've been to at least 25 stores in the past few days and there's not one to be found. I'm impatient, but not enough to pay the jacked up prices on Ebay or Amazon.

Yeah, in the foreseeable future, that's pretty much the only Wii game I'm interested in.
