Unless, of course, you pick up another copy of Zelda and return the other copy or sell it on eBay.

You do make a good point, it's like extra security of having one for launch.

Extreme, is setting up wireless hard or extremely easy? And how is the signal affected by going wireless? Is it weaker or is there no difference at all?

I'll throw out another router questions. If you use a router does that automatically give you a firewall or would I need to buy a Router/Firewall all in one unit? I've always been confused about this.

It's simple as can be. It's all plug and play. My house is over 1400 square feet, and I can get good signal anywhere in the house with my laptop.

i have 2 pc's, laptop, psp, 360, handheld pc, probably someting else i am forgetting all linked to my wireless network in my house and everything works flawlessly. it really is simple and with it becoming cheaper by the day it is a no brainer to go wireless. imo.

Is there any slowdown when there is somebody on the internet on another PC?

I don't have any. My wife has been on our desktop, I've been on Live, and my laptop has been downloading stuff all at the same time with no loss (that I can tell).

Wii and Zelda production line video

i am amazed that some of these processes are still hand made instead of automated.

Zelda comes out next Tuesday, right? If you buy it then I don't think you'll have much trouble finding a copy at retail. And if most retailers hold it until the 19th, just be there when the store opens (wherever you're getting your Wii from) and you should be able to get a copy. I imagine they'll press enough discs that in, in theory, everyone who buys a Wii could get a copy of Zelda to go with it. The attached rate for that game should be close to 100%.

Misfit, now Trauma Center is another title that you can't preorder at Gamestop/EB due to them thinking they have reached allocation max. I went to put money down and they were pulled from the system, so I guess I'll just buy those two with the console at BB or Walmart. I thought the games were coming on 11/19, are they arriving sooner?

Re: Nintendo Wii Information, hardware, games discussion

Candy, according to my Best Buy order, Zelda is suppose to release on the 15th. That may get pushed back, but for now its the 15th.

By the way, I don't think the Zelda attachment will be that high Misfit. I've been scanning the Amazon Wii boards the past week or so and there are a lot of people more interested in other titles. Plus, you have to factor in the "parent buying for children" into that as well. I'm sure Zelda will be available on the 19th, but I don't want to take a chance.
