Cherny!! Wii have new games!!

I played it for the first time over the weekend. I beat up a couple of professional opponents in the boxing game. Good fun, but it wasn't quite as subtly responsive as I thought it would be.

Yeah the boxing is probably the least responsive of the Wii Sports games, unfortunately Still fun tho!

No More Heroes, Super Smash Bros. Brawl, and next month, Mario Kart Wii.... There's good fun to be had

I might have to email my insider to get to the bottom of that decision.

From a very reliable source:

"Do you have any idea what Nintendo's online infrastructure looks like?

Neither does Nintendo."

Does the Wii even have the storage space to download songs and whatnot? I thought that you can do a memory dump to an SD card, they should have the Wii Store have the games (like the Playstation Store), and then you just download the new songs to SD cards, which are super cheap.

I interrupt this thread to say that I have developed X-Box 360 elbow. Seriously- I've blown through Oblivion and Assassin's Creed twice, and am now in the desert battling Nazi's in Call of Duty 2. My left arm is killing me, but not enough to stop.

Should I get Raymond 1 or 2? Mostly going to be one player, but once in awhile it may be 2 people playing.

Also, besides Mario Galaxy and SSB, what games should I get?

Finally, has anyone seen the Wii in stores? My parents want one, but I really don't want them to pay the scalper pricing for it.

Target and Toys R Us get shipments once in a while, and there are always people waiting outside when they do (I have brothers that work(ed) there). You need to call places and find out when the next shipment is and be there an hour before opening. Toys R Us has a one-Wii-per-customer limit so scalpers can't snap them up (unless they bring friends or bribe people in line).

That's what I was afraid of. I almost scored one on ebay yesterday for close to retail. I got really lucky and a friend of mine was able to score one at Target for me.

Thanks!
