Two Weeks with the WII

| _Griphin_ User Info... | http://games.slashdot.org/article.pl?sid=06/12/06/1641229 Thanks to /. for that. Here's something very interesting from the article: To start addressing the channels in order, the games channel is where you'll access your currently-loaded disc. The system has a little splash screen there on your Wii frontpage illustrating what you have loaded. Just to reiterate something you've probably already heard, GameCube titles are 100% backwards compatible with the system. The Wavebird controllers are too, and nicely slot into the ports for them on the top of the console. If you're planning on playing a lot of Virtual Console titles, I recommend that you make sure to hang onto your Wavebird; they'll play almost every game the download service can offer up, and your Cube games to boot. http://gamecube.gamezone.com/ (WaveBird is a wireless controller) Wow, that totally adds to the value of the console (they released 749 games for the GameCube) cause for instance they released: Legend of Zelda The Twilight Princess :), LEGO Star Wars, Bomber, Man!, PIKMIN (1 and 2), FIFA 07 Soccer (in fact, all the EA titles), Animal Crossing, and NFS: Underground for instance. Whoa, looks like you buy more then a WII, good for Nintendo to do that. - Wed, 6 Dec 2006 5:00pm Edited: Wed, 6 Dec 2006 5:21pm | ||
| trevor corey User Info... | There is a commercial on tv right now for gears of war. I was wondering if you know the name/band of the song they use. Its a haunting piano melody, could be "Live"? - Thu, 7 Dec 2006 2:02am | ||
| dumpstermesh User Info... | Actually me and the other half were talking about that enchanting melody too. He thinks it's REM. It does sound like them. - Thu, 7 Dec 2006 2:12am | ||

| dumpstermesh User Info... | Ahhh HA!! It's from the Donnie Darko soundtrack. I loved that movie!! - Thu, 7 Dec 2006 2:44am | ||
| dumpstermesh User Info... | It was orginally done by Tears for Fears in 1982. He redid it for the Donnie Darko soundtrack. - Thu, 7 Dec 2006 2:50am | ||

| trevor corey User Info... | My music "provider" says it's Gary Jules. Whatever, I got it. I fricken love how I could go online, ask a music question, get an answer, go and download, and blammo, satisfaction. Oh yeah! We live in good times. - Thu, 7 Dec 2006 3:26am | ||
| _Griphin_ User Info... | Yes, the song came from "The Hurting", which is a VERY COOL Tears For Fears album!!! (I heard "Pale Shelter" on Grand Theft Auto and went out and bought the album the next day) - Thu, 7 Dec 2006 12:40pm Edited: Thu, 7 Dec 2006 12:40pm | ||

| Andrew User Info... | what is the variety when it comes to snes and n64 games? - Thu, 7 Dec 2006 5:46pm | ||
| _Griphin_ User Info... | Only thing decent on the SNES (other then Super Mario World): Dragon Quest/Warrior. I dunno about the N64, there were a few decent games for it, like Turok. They should re-release Carmageddon and Mule for the WII, damnit!!! - Fri, 8 Dec 2006 1:21am | ||
| J User Info... | The snes had great titles!!! the street fighter saga!?!?! Zelda: link to the past?!? super tennis!?! final fantasy(your pick on the fav's)! Mortal Kombat!?!?! mario kart?! n64 had even greater titles Golden-eye(many drunk times logged on that game), mario kart, the list goes on but id be too much of a nerd to list all the fav's. carmageddon was kool, but i thought it was too much like twisted metal for playstation 1. - Sat, 9 Dec 2006 11:42am | ||
| _Griphin_ User Info... | Carmageddon on the PC is WAY better! - Sun, 10 Dec 2006 1:04am | ||
