Like you may have not guessed, this is my account for which Nintendo games I'm getting pumped up to get. So pumped, I may even commit sepuku just because there's no one else around here to kill. That's how pumped I am about the new Nintendo system. Also, I know. When you read the topic: Nintendo Wii-ners, it sounds more like Nintendo Weiners but I was going for Winners. Here's the list of Good Ideas/Bad Ideas that I think the Wii is offering and then, finally, for the launch series of games. The games I most likely will pick up on the day of purchase for the Wii.
:Good Idea:
· You get a bunch of sports games to test out the controller. Not only is it good for the customers, it's also good for the company. It allows the customer to take full blown advantage of the Wii-mote, and it pushes out more sales for the Wii Sports (which, honestly, I don't think many people would have bought by itself because of the other launch games).
· The 5000 Wii points (not sure what they're called as of yet.) will be available to purchase. With that purchase, for a limited time (I believe), you will also get the classic controller for old school games. Sweet deal.
· Free online play. Sweet deal. Also, no DVD playback. I actually don't want another DVD player sitting around. It's a game console, not a DVD player. SD movies will mean me not wasting money on another DivX player or something like that.
· Love it or hate it, this system sounds like it's going to be open to hackers, which means you might be playing more than just a few emulated games on the Wii.
:Bad Idea:
· I'm not totally sure on this, but I don't think the classic games will have enchanced graphics and/or online play. Me sad.
· More expensive than I thought for the classic games. But they need to make their money so it's not too bad.
Well, that's what I think. So, here's my game list. I've yet to actually make one because I wanted more details on the games first. Let's just get this started (in here):
· The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess
· Wii Sports (yeah, cus it's bundled)
· Red Steel
· Marvel: Ultimate Alliance
· Excite Truck
· Call of Duty 3
I've been saving for this so I'm prepared. If only my company would pay me. Apparently, they overpaid me last time so I'm not getting a check this week. Ugh! Lawyer, can I get some help.
"Weird Al"'s new album, Straight Outta Lynwood, is being released Sept. 26, 2006. Well, my friends, I'm buying the album for a fact. I support Mr. Yankovic 100% so I am obligated to buy it. But here's the low down on the new album. Keep this on the down low.
:Good Songs:
· White & Nerdy, Confession Part III, Trapped @ The Drive Through, Canadian Idiot, Do I Creep You Out?, I'll Sue Ya, Don't Download This Song
:Overall:
· It's better than Poodle Hat, although it's not near as good as his old mustache and glasses days. The biggest disappointment was the Polka song. It seemed to have been thrown into a blender and sorted out, unlike the previous polkas. Still, a good comedy album. White & Nerdy alone is good enough to purchase it for.
Well, that's my blog for the day.
