Just because people don't disagree with you, doesn't mean that everyone does agree with you. It also doesn't make you right. I could take the time to point out at least 10 things you've been straight up WRONG about in this thread, but when it starts becoming work to call you out on your constant bullshit, there comes a point where you just say fuck it, and ignore it all.

The bottom line is, joshnumbers, you are the idiot here. You are the one that is wrong with 90% of what you say, you are the one that should refrain from further posting in this thread, instead of telling others what to do.

9/17/2006 9:38:27 AM

i meant the multiplayer thing as more of a general comment, not specifically about the wii. even if it takes time to develop though, there'll be plenty out by the time it costs 100.

9/17/2006 9:46:26 AM

Still pissed at the hawaii thing

Thats some high power logic, do you think that if everyone agrees with me, it makes me correct?

Probably if you had any balls you would wipe the tears off your face, remove HaLo's dick from your mouth, and at least try.

Who the fuck is HaLo? How come I have to be sucking someone else off in order to be calling you out.

For the record I called you a dumbass on page one of this thread, and my opinion of you has only gotten worse since then.

You're an asshole, AND you're an idiot. Being one or the other isn't too bad, but the combination of both is quite annoying, to say the least.

Just because I'm bored at work I decided to take the time to actually point out some times you've been wrong in this thread.

Quote :

"im guessing the japanese language doesnt have the letter W, chief"

wrong.

Quote :

"i speak some japanese. 'wee' means very hip game, in japanese"

not by any of the 3 online translators I found.

Quote :

"there have long been rumors that most nintendo execs are gay..."

care to provide a link, or are you talking out of your ass again?

Quote :

"2007"

Quote :

"nintendo will NOT make dec of this year. i wish they could."

feeling dumb yet?

When someone said something about a rumor you said:

Quote :

"^they arent rumors, miyamoto confirmed that the game will utilize Wii's controler"

but later when I posted the VC lineup you posted:

Quote :

"the official word on the virtual console is still moot. we know nearly nothing official yet."

So it's ok for you to speculate and post rumors, but not for everyone else?

Quote :

"plus mario AT LAUNCH....."

nice try.

The mother of all dumbass stories right here:

Quote :

"the story is as follows; IGNwii came up with the name, starting using it EVERYWHERE. Nintendo's VP of marketing heard it, passed it along, and then nintendo adopted it. Thank IGNwii's ed. in chief.....not nintendo"

even when you yourself had posted a link and quote on page 2 flat out disproving that story altogether.

Quote :

""IGN Wii: How long have you known about the new name? Perrin Kaplan: Well, let me see. We've been working on a name for a good year and have had this one in mind for some time.""

Quote :

"why do you think that?"

in response to finding out info from a conference that YOU posted the details for. Are you just so stupid, you forget what you post? Or do you just ignore your own bullshit like the rest of us?

Quote :

"No way. Release will be in nov, price tag will be 199-229"

You were only $20 off. But way to be an asshole about it. Everyone had their guesses, but you always present your opinion as fact. And it got old about 3 years ago.

Quote :

"Who plays video games with their wives or girlfriends?"

uhh...it's called people that HAVE a wife or girlfriend.

Quote :

"If you've got kids you should be old enough to afford $60."

Try having one and then tell me you've got $60 to drop. On top of the $250 for the system, and any extra you spend on games.

Quote :

"N64 games were no bigger then ~10MB. Youre not gonna run out of flash space very easily."

Most N64 ROMs are 16MB Some are 32MB and there were even some that were 64MB. Regardless you missed the point of the argument entirely. If you have the service for many years you WILL run out of internal space very easily. And it hasn't yet been confirmed what will and won't be able to be stored on external media.

in response to the glove:

Quote :

"probably kinda secures the wiimote to your hand so you dont fling it 30 feet accross the room and bust it into a million pieces like 40% of everyone is gonna do."

What do you think the strap is for? a quick google search shows that there are TONS of products on the market called gloves that are used to protect small electronic devices. I'd imagine anyone with half a brain would at least CONSIDER that this could be the case. but yet when presented with this perfectly plausible suggestion you responded with:

Quote :

"like a cell phone sleeve thing? thats usually not called a glove."

Quote :

"you are wrong. first party games WILL be online at the launch."

Wrong, wrong, wrong. wrong wrong. wrong wrong. so very wrong.

Quote :

"ive got 10 sources here that say Wii connect24 will be at launch. i dont see online cant work if they are boasting that you can download the virtual console games."

connect 24/downloading VC games is not the same thing as having first party games being internet capable out of the box on launch day. not even close.

I'm not even going to get into the gamestop/EB games argument. I've already been over why I think those are the worst possible places to get Video games from. And you're sitting there arguing like it's the only place in town that will be selling the Wii. Trust me, they won't be.

oh and another thing you're wrong about:

Quote :

"becuase you like sucking dick"

but way to bring the middle school insults. Big ouchie there.

So really? that's it? that's your big comeback? Pointing out how I didn't get one of your lame jokes.

I guess I shouldn't be surprised. Maybe now you see why I didn't think it was worth my time pointing out what an idiot you are? But you asked.

9/17/2006 2:16:34 PM

Step over this line and say that! I'll kick your butt!...at Nintendo.

We both fucking agree. Thats the fucking point. Why the fuck do you feel the need to point out things that I say that arent true when me, you and everyone else knows that they arent true? Maybe becuase youre a sucker?

9/17/2006 2:24:15 PM

Josh, you just got PWNT

9/17/2006 2:24:16 PM

Quote :

"NeoGAF points us to a clearer version of a blurry poster floating around the net regarding pre-orders at GameStop/EBGames for the Wii and PlayStation 3 purportedly starting this Monday, September 18. The catch? Well, the catch is that "cash and store credit will not be accepted." The only way to make the reservation is to trade in $50 worth of used games -- which inevitably ends up being a real life version of Deal or No Deal at the register -- and will actually end up costing you $150 to $250 worth of games. After calling six different GameStop stores in six different states, nobody knew or could confirm the poster. The best information we got was from a Manhattan store which said, "We can't release that information." The super fine print at the bottom allegedly says: "All trades must be in working condition and are subject to manager approval. As GameStop cannot control production and shipping issues by the manufacturer, the reservation deposit will only guarantee a spot in line when the PlayStation 3 or Nintendo Wii becomes available. The reservation deposit does not guarantee receipt of a system available to purchase by Christmas." We've contacted GameStop corporate and will let you know what we hear. [Update 1: According to reports from Go Nintendo and Gamers Reports, the program is indeed true for stores in Hawaii and Guam. The program is purportedly being tested before a possible expansion into other territories. We're still awaiting an official response from GameStop corporate.]"

I'm fairly sure I won't be preordering the Wii from EB/Gamestop anyways, but if this turns out to be true, I will actually make it a point to go to my local EB and tell the manger exactly why I will never be purchasing anything from his company again.

9/17/2006 5:01:17 PM

Yeah bundles are bad enough, but $50 of trade-in stuff is ridiculous. I don't even have that many games I'd willingly trade in.

9/17/2006 6:27:16 PM

http://www.maxconsole.net/?mode=news&newsid=10134

Here's a video overview of the system.

9/17/2006 6:44:48 PM

Yeah, if I get a Wii I'll just head into a 24 hour Wal-Mart at about 11:00pm on November 18th and get one at midnight.

The PS3 will require a lot more work.

9/17/2006 7:15:15 PM

I will let you guys know when I do, which should be a week or so in advance of the pre-order SKU entering the system.

In the meantime, I already reserved excite truck, cannot wait for that one!

9/17/2006 8:02:21 PM

So what games is everyone going to get at launch...

I'm going to get trauma center and zelda

9/17/2006 8:45:41 PM

zelda for sure. not sure after that.

i dont have a link, but i was under the impression that the games you purchase online are stored on nintendo's server. they said that the wii will be connected 24/7 so this seems like the best possible answer to the question. it solves the "running out of memory" problem and allows nintendo to be in full control of the games that you purchased from them

that is the stupidest thing i have ever read, watch gamestop/ebgames lower the amount of money they will give you for used games on the days of launch. i bet a game they would give you 15 bucks for on nov. 18th, would be like 8 bucks on nov. 19th (<- day of launch..?)

its an intriguing idea especially if you figure in the fact that they could cache a certain number of games on the flash, and if you wanted others you would have to re-download but for these games the size isn't going to be that big, maybe 2-3 minutes wait to redownload

Zelda to start, maybe Madden.

Already preordered Zelda and I may also get Trauma Center.

9/17/2006 11:18:06 PM

dude...trauma center is where its at

9/18/2006 1:18:56 PM

dammit nintendo go ahead and release your numbers so I can pre order

9/18/2006 1:49:59 PM

heard a rumor from people at gamestop is could ~1-2weeks before wii's can be preordered

9/18/2006 3:03:38 PM

think there will be any good bundles or better to go ahead and preorder games?

9/18/2006 3:13:08 PM

id love to see bundled games become the norm again. made picking a system when you were on a fence that much easier.

[Edited on September 18, 2006 at 3:23 PM. Reason : at launch, none of this 2 years down the road shit]

9/18/2006 3:23:32 PM

I fail to see how being forced to buy games you're not interested in will make you want to get a system that you're undecided on.

Bundles are a horrible idea unless you are able to select exactly what you want in the bundle, AND it is available at a significant discount from what you would pay for buying each item separately.

Quote :

"Bundles are a horrible idea"

snes bundle with ken griffey jr baseball -> ftw

9/18/2006 5:29:03 PM

i never had a problem with a bundled game. it generally results in a cheaper first-game purchase and, unless it is some random crap bundle they put together later, it usually is an awesome title.

mainly i like nintendo bundles with a first-party game cuz you know you are getting quality. something like halo or tekken or the like wouldnt be bad though for other systems.

9/18/2006 7:32:20 PM

if they put

zelda
2 wii motes and nunchucks
and a wii

in a bundle..i'd buy it

9/18/2006 7:47:59 PM

^for $350 and i'm sold.

9/18/2006 7:56:04 PM

Nintendo Wii: 250
Zelda: 50
Controller : 40
Nunchuck: 20

total 360

but seriously..thow it all in a bundle..I'd buy it

9/18/2006 8:27:38 PM

and you'd buy it w/o a bundle

9/18/2006 8:43:36 PM

Sure, I plan on getting everything listed there anyway. So of course I'd buy that bundle. But I'd be pissed if I was forced to buy that bundle. What if I'm some sort of hermit that doesn't have any friends and hates Zelda? then what. Bundles are ok as long as they are optional.

9/18/2006 9:05:59 PM

Then you're retarded and should buy a PS3 on ebay for $20000

9/18/2006 9:07:51 PM
