[QUOTE="ekalbtwin"][QUOTE="yoshi_64"]Well Metroid games have never been long if you learned how to speed run through them effectively. My fastest was about almost 7 minutes, I think it was like 6:51 or something on the GBA. I've yet to speed run my Ambassador one :P hydralisk86

my brother got 100 percent in 1:44 minutes.the games not longer because its a gameboy advance game...that should be enough explanation but seriously man you're kinda slow i'm a metroid zero mission guy but i beat fusion faster than that...Armored_Pillow

Would you like to compare Nintendo Wifi to Live or PSN? Because we could do that you know. :Pmeetroid8

i know psn is better but doesnt negate the fact that wii has online.

but

ok go for it...

whats so much better about psn?

[QUOTE="meetroid8"][QUOTE="KBFloYd"]

wii doesnt have online? thats news to me.

[QUOTE="meetroid8"][QUOTE="KBFloYd"]

so it makes a difference for HD console but not for the wii? contradict much?

wii doesnt have online? thats news to me.

Friend codes automatically make Nintendo Wifi worse than everything else. Lack of voice chat for most games, no trophies/achievements, lack of downloadable retail games. And most importantly, there are more and better games to play online on PSN than there are to play on Nintendo Wifi. meetroid8

friend codes? yea i guess if you have more than 5 friends it a hassle...but if you only have 2 or no friends then who cares..

voice chat? meh...fun for the first week then it just becomes a way to annoy people or talk trash or show off how you can chat and beat people at the same time...overrated.

trophie/achievements? what does this have to do with online? this is an offline perk.

downloadable reatail games? i prefer a real disc ..like many others...nice to have but meh

yes psn has more games to play online but that doesnt negate the fact that wii has many online games too.

lack of messaging the person your playing with..is my biggest complaint with the wii

[QUOTE="locopatho"] It makes a difference for a console with a focus on online as opposed to one without. meetroid8

[QUOTE="locopatho"]Makes no difference to me if the Wii sold 10 copies, 10,000 copies or 10,000 million copies, KBFloYd

dont start lying now.. popularity matters because all your friends will have it and eveyone will talk about it..

[QUOTE="Armored_Pillow"]

you know what?forget what i said :] any questions?wiifan001

Nope.

I am merely making a point that Nintendo never tried to develop first person shooters, therefore they could never have failed to do so. If you want to include Duck Hunt, well, 28 million says something.

yeah i don't mean failed at developing. i meant failed at making thier version of CoD games as popular as the xbox and PS3 versions.Armored_Pillow

Ok then, I see that's been established.

Are you in need of a system that runs GC games? if so, I bet the WiiU will not, which is another good reason to buy a Wii, even if the WiiU is BC with Wii games (and it will be). That said, if you can wait a year or so for the WiiU, you can play Wii games on that. I needed the Wii for GC anyway, since my cube took a beating from some stupid people who dont watch where they are sitting :P.

Games to get:

1. Skyward Sword
2. Mario Galaxy 2
3. Mario Galaxy
4. Xenoblade Chronicles
5. Other M (flawed but fun)
6. Metroid Prime Trilogy
7. Donkey Kong Country Returns
8. and more
