kamikaze said:has anyone had a non-nintendo published wii (not VC) title that they could recommend?
WiiRevolution1 said:Pokemon Mystery Dungeon does not have a purchase option.
Kinda weird...especially since a 1st party title...
Also: it has a purchase button for High School musical!
QUICK! Press it before its sold out! :lol
EDIT: Another mistake I found is that Blast Works has a release date of May 6th when it was delayed to the 20th..
EDIT2: OMG if you click on the Nintendo Channel profile it has a option to buy it from the Wii Shop Channel!
WTF :lol
EDIT3: wow....if you go to the Wii Shop Channel profile it has a option to purchase it from the Wii Shop Channel....WTF
EDIT4:....wow this was so hyped and hardly any posts :lol
Anywayz when I clicked on the "Purchase the shop channel" it said "The software you selected is not available in this country"......

Well this topic was started 1AM PST / 4AM EST in the middle of the week. It's past the bedtimes of most US GAFers.WiiRevolution1 said:EDIT4:....wow this was so hyped and hardly any posts :lol

at the botom:
"Available blocks on wii console will be sent to Nintendo"
QUICK! Every fill up your memory to where you have EXACLY 0 blocks left! Maybe Nintendo will do something then :lol
Also: the voices on videos such as "What is WiiWare" and others are a bit to low....the music usually downs it out :\
Rlan said:Not up in Australia yet, obviously, but I checked anyhow.
When I chose "Australia" (as I was in "UK" before, it's been a while since I've gone on there) It now had the ability to put your "Mynintendo" e-mail in.
But the e-mail slot is like 8 letters long! It's fucked!
VOOOOOOOK!
That may be so, but it still seems ridiculously pointless. The question I asked when I first heard about the concept was "Why?"TwinIonEngines said:Jam Sessions isn't shovelware. It's not actually a game, and by that I don't mean that it's the sort of game that can be described as a non-game, I mean that it really is not a game. But there's nothing half-assed or shoddy about it - it's of very high quality and sophistication given the hardware it's running on.

The fact that you need headphones to get decent sound is a huge turn-off to me as well. Yes, headphones should enhance the sound, but they're practically a requirement in this case. No thanks.
To each his own though. If you like it, great.

DeathMonkey said:I won't let me recommend Pro Evolution Soccer 2008! What?!
Which third party games CAN you recommend? I'm unable to give recommendations to many of my third party Virtual Console games either. (I could give recommendation info for Ristar and Gunstar Heroes, but not Sonic the Hedgehog?)
You were obviously listening to the wrong people. Those people being the ones that never played it.abstract alien said:i found NG to be better than the damn console version, honestly. had lots more fun with it.
this game was supposed to suck
PolyGone said:you need to have played them for more than an hour to be able to give recommendations
Mithos said:That day? Week? Month?
I have played all my Wii games more then 10 hours, only Super Mario Galaxy + Tomb Raider Anniversary showed up in the recommendation menu.
I have a 100mbit connection so it should be plenty fast enough. Though I guess it could have something to do with me living in Europe.Cheez-It said:As many have said, it is *not* slow for everyone. Mine buffer in less than 3 seconds, and haven't had any hiccups whatsoever. It's either your ISP, an issue between you and Nintendo servers

Still, the videos in the Metroid Preview Channel streamed just fine and I imagine that being based on the same technology.
It works now though.. so whatever caused the previous buffering - it's fixed now.Cheez-It said:Heh. Yup. Streaming video doesn't mix well with routing via BGP half way across the world (assuming N servers for the US channel which you are accessing are located in the US).
