Time for an update!
So I went through quite some surprises this month, so let's start at the start of this month.

It was my first work day after the summer holidays, but since im at school atm, it was more like my first school day... So anyway after a couple of hours of brain torture, I finally got home and suddenly the postman showed up with a package for me(Oh what joy). So i opened up the package and volia! There it was.. The Nintendo Wii.

So I quickly hooked up the Wii to my Tv, and turned it on. After setting the system to "HD"(480p!!! HOLY S**T!!), I was ready to pop the smash hit game, "Super Smash Brothers Brawl" in the machine. So I started to play the game and the single player campaign, and it was fun for about and hour, but we'll get to that later.. So after 2 hour of brawl madness, I turned the console off...

So after an hour or so, I returned to play the darn thing again... and guess what.. It totally stopped working... It wouldn't eject the damn disc, nor would it read it... So I packed it back in, and sent it to the store where I brought it...

A week pasted and I got it back, and this time it's working(so far).. So I wanted to try the Virtual Console, so I downloaded, the klassic super mario brothers... So I start up the game, and guess what.. I get a black screen.. so I look in the manual, and there's nothing about this problem. Weird, but as always google never fails, and I learn that if you press a certain button combo, and it will activate interlaced mode.. now why wouldn't the manual tell me that? And it get's worse... After I downloaded a couple of other titles I got the same problem with "Comix Zone" and It seems that interlaced mode hasn't been added to that game... now that's just great isn't it...

Another bad thing was, that I thought that I would finally be able to play "The Twin Snakes" but yet again the Wii failed me... First I found out that I need an orginal gamecube controller to play a gamecube game.. you can't even use the klassic controller... after I got my hand on a pretty bad one from Gamestop, I learned that I also needed a original gamecube memory card... you can't just use the internal memory... And don't get me started on the gamecube controller? what the hell is up that crappy design...

So I went back to brawl to play the singleplayer campaign.. and guess what.. after one hour it goes from campaign to camPAIN! It's really poo that you have to unlock all the chars. for a multiplayer focused game...

But once you get over that and get to the multiplayer, it's really, really good.. and Wii Sports is a heck of fun to play with you friends... so all in all the Wii is a gaming console meant to be played with others!


oh btw I spelled c-l-a-s-s-i-c wrong on purpose.. since you can't write it atm..
