When was the last time you touched your Wii?

**PercyPig** · 23-08-2009 09:57 AM

Anyway. Is it collecting large amounts of dust under the TV or is it the driving force of your entertainment pleasure?

I think I had a brief spell playing on it in February when I collected all the stars in Super Mario Galaxy. Can't say I've been near it since then.

**RobotBoy** · 23-08-2009 09:58 AM

I've probably played it about 15 times since I got it last September. Whoops.

**PercyPig** · 23-08-2009 10:05 AM

I'm tempted to sell mine but I know as soon as I do Nintendo will announce a game like Zelda Calibur II or something equally hot.

**Diddy** · 23-08-2009 10:06 AM

Probably about a month (or more) when I got Little King's Story

though I'm the same with my XBox, I'm just not in a gaming PLACE at the moment.

Which is annoying as I bought a bunch of LiveArcade games and haven't played them yet (Monkey Island). Also some proper games too.

I keep meaning to start playing my Wii again to finally decide if I want rid or not

**Ellie** · 23-08-2009 10:10 AM

I'll give you £50 for it.

**Diddy** · 23-08-2009 10:15 AM

oh ELLIE

btw you seem like a good person to ask about this, but when I was on holiday I missed one of the Adam and Joe podcasts. Do you have the Song Wars Classics #4 one? I seem to remember you being a fan...

**Ellie** · 23-08-2009 10:21 AM

I certainly do. It was the Bond themes one: http://www.mediafire.com/?mwzzmmz1dzy

**Diddy** · 23-08-2009 10:26 AM

OMG YAY

thanks Ellie

I want a SONTUM of QUALACE

**monsta** · 23-08-2009 01:44 PM

About a YEAR. There is just NO SOFTWARE for it, the only thing I'm looking forward to is Other M which is bloody ages away.

I've heard Pilotwings is up on the Virtual Console. I'm so, I may have to BOOT IT UP.

**Indie** · 23-08-2009 01:47 PM

Even despite this, i still quite want one.

**Ellie** · 23-08-2009 01:49 PM

I still want one. Mario Kart would keep me occupied alone. It's like having a Gameboy and just Tetris - still worth the money.

**monsta** · 23-08-2009 01:55 PM

If you still want one, I'd get one ASAP. Nintendo, along with Microsoft and the X-box, are putting up it RRP to £220 within the next week or so.

CREDIT CRUNCH.

**Ellie** · 23-08-2009 02:11 PM

Nah, I'm going to get an HMV package with MarioKart. I can get 9% off at HMV vouchers if I order them through work too.

**Lee** · 23-08-2009 02:38 PM

About 4 weeks ago? Used to play on it with my ex every few days.
Will probably continue with Little Kings Story when I get back.

**WiDGe->** · 23-08-2009 02:40 PM

I want one, keeping an eye out for a bargain 2nd hand-er.

**POP!** · 23-08-2009 03:08 PM

Probably 5 months ago, I've spent the time since trying to figure out how to turn on Mario Kart Racing unsuccessfully.

**Slave** · 23-08-2009 03:18 PM

I played it yesterday, but that was about 10 minutes and the woeful motion controls led me to turn it off.

I've always maintained that I would never do without it, but I also could not rely on it was my only console.

**WiDGe->** · 23-08-2009 03:19 PM

Can you mario kart without the motion?

**POP!** · 23-08-2009 03:29 PM

Seriously, how do you turn it on ?

**Diddy** · 23-08-2009 03:42 PM

They just put the X-Box up though didn't they?

I can't see them nearly doubling the price within a month

**David_5000** · 23-08-2009 03:46 PM

I got one two days ago, looking after it for a friend for six months while he's travelling.

I can't quite get the hang of it at the moment, it doesn't quite seem as amazing as I'd been led to believe...

**TomH** · 24-08-2009 06:29 PM

A few days ago - another one into Little King's Story!

**Slave** · 24-08-2009 06:50 PM

Yes, you can use the GameCube controllers (or my preferred option - the nunchuk/remote setup).

I'm not sure how you do the trick flips with a non-motion controller though...

**funky** · 24-08-2009 08:20 PM

where's the cheapest place to get a Wii these days? I'm considering it.

I thought it would be Amazon but £180? I might have to go second hand...

**WiDGe->** · 24-08-2009 08:21 PM

Cash converters!

That's all it costs second hand now with all that shit? Hardly any point in selling it really.

rgrajagiri · 02-09-2009 10:25 AM

probably i played before 4 months ago.

**Diddy** · 02-09-2009 11:03 AM

I'm still a bit IFFY about selling it. Maybe at Christmas

I think I've already sold TWO WIIS at Christmas

I am going to JETTISON a few of the games though. Same for XBox, I didn't like Streetfighter that much

**PercyPig** · 03-09-2009 12:06 AM

Diddy needs to push his motion sickness fear aside and get his Call Of Duty freak on.

**PercyPig** · 03-09-2009 12:12 AM

Is there some kind of mod and I can do to turn my Wii into some kind of HOT AS entertainment system for my main TV? That'll be all it's useful for.

**Diddy** · 03-09-2009 07:12 PM

I added SPOKEY DOKEYS to mine

**PercyPig** · 03-09-2009 07:24 PM

You should be on Queer Eye For The Straight Geek with tips like that!

**MAMA** · 03-09-2009 08:17 PM

Only geeks play Wii confirmed.

**Johnkm** · 07-11-2009 01:34 PM

My Wii never gets played as much as the Gamecube, despite being able to play Gamecube games on the Wii hardly any of mine seem to want to work on it

. But I did play the Wii yesterday for the first time in about 6 weeks.

**Sheena** · 07-11-2009 01:51 PM

Not since Christmas but then 2 weeks ago set it up and we've been on it constantly. I just don't like gaming alone, that's the problem...

**swangali** · 07-11-2009 02:00 PM

Mine's been under my bed since I moved houses in March. I would sell it, but it would only cover the cost of paying a bill so it feels a bit of a waste
