I am salivating over the thought of a lightsaber fight using the Wii controller...

Now THAT would be a system seller for me.

Already a buy for me but the saber idea would rock.
Yep I love my Star Wars...

Because I'm a one console guy, I am taking a wait and see approach with Wii sports titles. While I love the look of games like Red Steel and Zelda, I have pretty much only played sports games on my xbox. Could I change into a more all around gamer because of the Wii? Maybe.

Re: Nintendo Wii (Revolution) Information, hardware, games discussion

Reports are unclear, Dre.

I think it's going to be in the 4th quarter, but they havent said too many specifics.

Q: How do you extend your online strategy to Wii?

A: It's the same premise. We will offer online-enabled games that the consumers will not have to pay a subscription fee for. They'll be able to enjoy that right out of the box. The Wii console is going to be Wi-Fi enabled, so essentially, you'll be able to plug it in and go. It won't have hidden fees or costs.

Any word yet on the types of classic games available for download, such as 3rd party stuff and such?

I've got to say if I had the ability to get the old NES Super Dodge Ball game it might make the Wii the greatest console ever,.

Wii developers: don't be lazy. Pro-scan and 16x9 support is a must.

You get what you pay for..PS2 online service sucked..& ppl tell me the DS online is nothing special either..& yes, if the PS3 offers free online play it will probally suck too..
