Super Paper Mario. The other ones are great too but this one is a step above imo. I don't really see them as totally different experiences either. I was surprised how much SPM felt like the others. The only thing missing is turned based combat and I think the game is better without it.
In a way I would agree, would you have bought the Wii if it only had the normal controler? The thing is it DOES have the wiimote and that makes it the best of the curent systems for gamplay (IMO). I would not have bought any consol had it not been for the wiimote I would stay on my PC.

I would have. I bought it for the first party games. The wiimote is just the icing on the cake.
i heard many offensive stuff on xboxlive that could make 9 year Japanese girls cry (nintendo's target audience:roll: ) but so what??!!! if you get offended by something someone says to you during a game of halo2 on live......you should seriously consider emotional support from a professional. its a video game, ppl play it to have fun, if your playing against 15 other ppl in a heated match, and someone stabs you, PROFANITY WILL COME OUT OF YOUR MOUTH!!!!! and itll go back and forth throughout the game (and some teabagging....) but when the game finishes you leave the lobby by saying goodgame, thats how you do it.
and yeah, It's not exclusive to Xbox Live. Welcome to the real world. Racism is everywhere.

I think the problem isn't that people are getting offended but that this sort of language and racism brews deliquent behaviour in children. I'm glad that Nintendo is doing online the way they are. Listening to the language and racism spewed on X-box live makes me sad that today's youth seem to have no sense of respect or decency. There may be parental controls but they're obviously not being enforced. If I were a parent I would feel much more comfortable having my kid play online games with friend codes on a nintendo system rather than risk them being exposed to such baseless hate. Racism may be everywhere in the real world but it doesn't have to be.
Super Paper Mario, particularily if you are a Mario fan. I didn't like Madden that much but my brother thinks it's the best game on the Wii right now. It all depends on your tastes but Super Paper Mario is a fantastic game that should appeal to almost anyone.
I have never used a game guide to beat any Zelda game. That would take away the fun for me. I beat Twilight Princess 100% without a guide minus 2 poe souls I never found(I found all bugs, heart pieces, bomb bags, side quests etc) so it definately can be done. Now I'm working on OoT again and while the games may have gotten easier over the years I think that developing a Zelda mindset over the years may also have something to do with it. The puzzles that I'm revisiting in OoT seem a lot easier than the first time I played it many years ago. I've played and beat every 3D Zelda game since, many times over so much so that I can solve any puzzle a new Zelda game might throw at me with ease. It really does recquire a similar vein of thinking throughout the series. Then there's my husband who has never played a 3D Zelda game in his life. He just started OoT and he's struggling through some of the simplest puzzles. It can be really frustrating to watch at times but it was the same way for me the first time I played OoT. So while TP may be easy for a Zelda veteran I'm willing to bet that anyone who hasn't played a Zelda game before will find the game pretty challenging.
I guess I'm one of the few that thought this game was great. I enjoyed Sonic games growing up and I thought this game did a great job of returning Sonic to its roots. I've gotten a lot of fun out it. Sure there are some frustrating parts but going back and replaying the original Sonic on the VC also had its frustrating moments (making it to the last level only to die and have to restart from the beginning - aaagggh!). I like the new controlls, I love the speed, and the level design and art style are fantastic imo. Plus, searching for fire souls and earning gold medals has kept me addicted long after the main game ended.
It's definately worth it. The games are great to pick up and play between other games. They're especially fun if you have someone to play with. We like to revisit them every now and then. It may not be worth it without the wiimote but you're getting one anyway so you may as well buy the game.
I don't see what the big deal is. They work fine on the ds. I prefer to remain anonymous when I play online games anyway. As for playing my actual friends, well, entering the code isn't all that difficult.
