I normally don't play a lot of consoles because I have a pretty nice PC and not much time, but I think that this time around I may get a Wii. They seem to be putting some new things into the arena, but I'll just have to see. $250 is a lot for me. $600 is even more haha... I definitely won't be buying a PS3

I hope Nintendo gets more support from third parties, so they won't make too many kiddy games again.

But I'm definately buying a Wii and I hope Nintendo can compete with the other 2.

I heard in a recent interview that there will be TONS of 3rd party support. On the main topic of discussion, the price of the Wii is what will start the ball rolling. THe virtual consoles, wiimote, and game titles will keep it moving. I thin kthe Wii has huge potential. Many paeople are using the term Wii60 - buying the Wii and xbox360 for the same price as the ps3.

I thought so, yes. But I'm not very sure... Can anyone confirm ?

yes it can. i checked IGN.com's Wii faq and it states that there are four gamecube controller ports on the Wii. If it has these then it without a doubt should play GC games. And don't forget about the Wii Virtual Console, for us oldschool gamers who used to play the oldies but goodies, it's a great way to bring back memories granted it's gonna run you about $5 for nes, snes games and $10 for N64 games I hear. It's a great alternative to have for the nostalgic sufferers.

That doesnt tell you anything. Why would makers of the game say "this game sucks and nobody should play it?" of course they are going to rave about it. peter molyneux raved about Fable for endless interviews; claiming it would be the greatest RPG EVER.

it certainly wasnt.

When was the last time you read an interview with Nintendo about a first party game in which they themselves stated that that specific game was going to be incredible??? I know Nintendo pretty good man. Anyways, Fable? lol.
C'mon this is Zelda!

I dunno man. I didnt play the last Zelda that came out, but people said it was shitty. So with that being said, Zelda's reputation isnt exactly perfect. But then again, this IS a Zelda with next-gen realistic graphics; none of that cel-shaded bullshit. i mean, that style looks cool in some games, but NOT zelda.

I havent read too many Nintendo interviews, but seriously, you shouldnt take THEIR opinion on their OWN product too seriously. The game will probably rock entire worlds, but im just saying that believing an interview like that is kinda stupid.

im just curious as to how well this controller works...
