That's at the top of my Wii wish list right now. And honestly, I feel like that could be ther first game to really showcase the graphical power of the Wii.

Currently, I have:

Wii Sports (naturally)

Trauma Center

Zelda

Super Paper Mario

Red Steel

Need for Speed: Carbon

Resident Evil 4

I think by the end of the year I'll have about 12 or so. Looking forward to Mario Strikers Charged, Metroid 3, Super Mario Galaxy, Zack and Wiki (however it's spelled), and possibly Boogie. The Wii's lineup is looking strong!

I just ordered Sonic Rush for $19.99 w/ 99 cent shipping on familyvideo.com. It's only $14.99 at gamestop.com, but the shipping is much higher. I'm really excited. Ordered Lunar Knights as well.

Does anybody else's Wii make loud noises when it loads discs, sometimes even during gameplay. It doesn't prevent my playing the games, but it's just alarmingly loud. It's loudest when playing Red Steel for some reason, even during gameplay. Anyone else have this problem?

I agree with the others. Definitely get Twilight Princess, Super Paper Mario, and RE 4. I own all of those (RE 4 for the Gamecube), and they are all excellent in every sense.

It seems that developers are either being lazy in their ports of existing franchises, or being lazy in general, especially with regard to the graphics of their games. Nintendo is certainly capable of creating gorgeous games with the Wii hardware, as in the case of Super Mario Galaxy. I think to leverage developers' creativity and confidence in the Wii hardware, Nintendo should license their games engines to third-party developers. They'll make money, have great-playing games, AND great-looking games. IDK, what do you all think?

I know this might be hoping for much, so I don't foresee this actually happening, but how great would it be if Nintendo released a firmware upgrade that enabled 720p support? If you think about it, the first Xbox was able to output 720p, and both Sony and Microsoft have released firmware upgrades that did similar things (i.e. 1080p support for 360). What do you all think?

Hey Everyone,

I was wondering if you all can give me some advice on my computer. I want to upgrade to Vista by the end of the summer, and I was wondering if I should just wait longer and buy a new computer with new components, or should I just upgrade my 3 year old computer. It's a Gateway 500GR with P4 3 Ghz HT Processor, 512 MB PC3200 RAM, and a 200 GB Hard Drive. What I was thinking was adding 1.5 GB of RAM to bring it up to 2GB, changing the power supply (if it's possible or recommended because it's extremely loud) from the stock 350W one to a Thermaltake 430W one. Finally, I want to disable the onboard graphics and put maybe a 256 MB XFX GeForce 8600 GT video card to handle Aero. The operating system of course would be last, and I was just thinking Vista Home Premium. So what do you all think? Should I just build or buy a new PC, or should I just upgrade my PC, which would cost roughly $295.96 according to newegg.com, and that's just for the components, not the operating system. I've never built a computer, but I was just planning on asking friends who have to help with upgrades. Looking forward to everyone's input. Thanks.

What do you all think about a Classic Series for the DS; something similar to what was done with Super Mario 64 DS. Nintendo can re-release titles like Ocarina of Time and Donkey Kong 64 with touch-screen capabilities. I don't know, just throwing the idea out there.
