Got a Wii

Post by Whelan »

Weeeeeee! lol, that's what me and my fience yell out. She got it for me yesterday, we had a joke going that once I got her the ring she would get me a wii. Well apparently she thought it would be a good idea since she is getting all the attention with the ring. So she did!I love it, so much fun to play games and be more interactive than holding a controller and sitting there. I ran out and rented Tiger Woods after some time on Wii Sports. Not a bad game, I hope '08 is better with the swing, especially the putting but all in all, darn pleased with how I can actually swing instead of pushing buttons. I love it cause its a lot more realistic than say the older versions like '04 were. Even my dad is into it now too.Next up I wanna grab Pirates and try out some others. Any suggestions.

I waiting in line 24 hours the day before launch to get mine. I see them randomly in stores though, just call gamestop or bestbuy and see when shipments usually arrive and check that day.

As stated, it's only $10 when you subtract the cost of the remote. The shooting gallery alone is worth more than $10.Quote, originally posted by TraySeeLea »How did you get a Wii?I don't know if it's the same in NY, but in So. Cal. places like Target and ToysRUs hold their Wii shipments until Sunday morning. They don't necessarily get them weekly, but if they do, you can get one on a Sunday morning when they open.

Toy's R' Us in Connecticut opens up at 7am to hand out slips and then opens at 10am to sell.We went to Circuit City at 930am and waited when we found from a guy that worked there they were getting some probably on Sunday. I would check the ads in newspapers for Target and TRU. And as for BB, CC, and the others, just ask people that work there.

Tiger Woods 07 kinda sucks. Graphics are good and the fact that you actually swing is awesome. But I think the Wii Sports Golf is more accurate albeit more cartoonish. I will stick with that and TW 07 on my laptop for now, that is much better and more accurate. Maybe 08 will be fixed up. Next I'm gonna try out Wii Play and Pirates, see what this thing's got.
