He said it's a Linksys, so I doubt it's any of those Belkins.

Dernit I missed that completely.

Nintendo also says if its N or pre-N it may not be compatible.

Re: Official Wii thread -Part IX

I'm have been looking but I can't actually find any place that is actually selling the Buck Shot even though many sites are saying it was due back in June.

That might actually get me back no some of those shooter games I need to finish on the Wii.

I keep looking at Gamestop and Best Buys web site and it's still not listed. Even Amazon doesn't have a page on it. But since that review just came out i'd imagine we'll see it by the end of the month or early September. I'm gonna get it as soon as it becomes available. I wonder how resident evil 4 would work with it?

This is the strangest thing ever. I can't seem to find why the Wii is knocking down the router's wireless signal. I emailed Nintendo. Let's see what they recommend.

Not bad.

It says it expires on 9/15/09

Thanks Amazon!
Found this in my Gold Box this morning for $43.69, so take off the $10 promo and I got it for $33.69.

Even better.

Re: Official Wii thread -Part IX

I started Klonoa last night. For a game that is 12 years old it holds up remarkably well. I never played it originally so I can't compare but it looks great on the Wii. It's a bit on the easy side, but still fun. I like the 3D-ish take on platforming. Unfortunately I'm already halfway through the game and have only played about 90 minutes.

It would make for a solid WiiWare, XBLA or PSN release though for $10.

A pretty glowing review of this attachment/accessory. Like the Buckshot posted above this looks like a solid accessory. $30 on Amazon.

Re: Official Wii thread -Part IX

Bought Tiger Woods 10 for $29.99 on Amazon last week, and I just exchanged it at Walmart and paid the $10 difference to upgrade to the MotionPlus version. So I wound up paying $39.99 for Tiger Woods 10 with MotionPlus. Score.

That is quite possibly the greatest shirt ever created.
