i thought it sucked before the first temple or so

Yay I got my Wii online!

...

So now what?

4/15/2007 12:37:23 AM

okay i'm stuck again... i'm in 3-3 "the dotwood tree". it comes right after the swimming in the ocean part. i've gone all the way to the door that's covered in bark and can't be opened. i've flipped to 3d on every block platform and gone down the tunnel to get coins. i just can't figure out where to go. i'm slowing killing myself. help!

4/15/2007 8:43:55 AM

think about what burns dried bark....

hint: fire...

4/15/2007 9:57:32 AM

is it water?

4/15/2007 10:25:24 AM

Deku nuts.

The answer is deku nuts.

4/15/2007 10:29:01 AM

4/15/2007 6:37:34 PM

agreed...i liked the game so-so at the beginning. it was pretty slow with uninteresting dialogue. now im practically obsessed with it. i just got the cannon for the sky temple, but i spent about 6 hours yesterday just wandering around and finding a bunch of hidden stuff and playing all the side games. i really really like it now.

re4 coming to the wii, obviously with use of the wiimote to hack and slash. jealous i am!

4/16/2007 10:45:19 AM

wikipedia

4/16/2007 10:54:30 AM

no offense to sober but like how the hell do you find out a thing like that on wiki? - i mean do you bookmark the page and check daily or what- seems like an odd place to cite information such as this

4/16/2007 4:28:31 PM

it pisses me off... I have 400 points but punch out cost 500... and the only way to get that extra 100 points is to buy 1000 points... and right now I don't have an extra $10 to throw away... but if I could only buy 100 for a buck that would be great /rant

4/16/2007 6:45:29 PM

^^lets see, the games always come out on Monday so you just have to look at the wikipage for virtual console games that lists release dates to know what is coming out. don't be a dumbass

4/16/2007 7:31:04 PM

thinking about getting the nyko charger. for $20 it seems like a good deal. 18 hours of play time.

4/16/2007 8:45:23 PM

They sell it in stores or online only?

4/16/2007 9:03:28 PM

are you talking about the charger??

they sell it both. but its sold out in a lot of stores.

you can get it from ebay. they retail for like $30 in stores

4/16/2007 9:24:58 PM

i got punch out last night!

i cant get past soda popinski

i was doing good at first, but as i drank, my reflexes slowed down and he packs a quick punch.

i also have the nyko charger, and i think its great. i always just put it back on the charger when im done, so i haven't really tested the battery life.

4/17/2007 8:33:42 AM

nice..

is it one of those "if you dont drain the battery completely then its gonna lower battery life" type batteries??

i wanna get one. no stores have them. i might just get it from amazon.com

they have it for 29.99 shipped from a reputable seller..

or 28.50 shipped from one of their other merchants

4/17/2007 8:36:16 AM

im really not sure....ive never drained it all the way.

i bought mine on amazon.com and got free shipping.

4/17/2007 8:39:33 AM

lol...OMG LET ME CHECK WIKI!

4/17/2007 8:56:08 AM

tr00

4/17/2007 9:08:00 AM

I ordered the Nyko charge station a few days ago from Amazon (free shipping, easy returns, etc). Will post about it after I use it for a bit. I burned through AA's so fast and the $$ in the longrun is much cheaper , so I just had to get it. I dont see how anyone could merit spending the $$ required to keep feeding these Wiimotes AA's when you can get a lasting solution for $30. Local stores say they cant keep the charge station in stock so its another one of those Wii things ya pretty much have to get online (like the Wii itself still).

Werent there alot of you who were saying Wiis would be sitting on shelves in stores by mid-march/early april? I havent seen one yet around the Raleigh area...

Also: The icicle snowboard thing on Zelda was completely unexpected and pretty badass. Throw that in with the gear skateboard and I am now very impressed with this game. It has aspects of Tony Hawk, SSX, and all of the previous Zeldas!

4/17/2007 11:27:09 AM

yeah. i bought a 50 pack of AAs and 10AAA for $10..
i thought it was a deal. i mean it still is but not for an application like the Wii.

when i bought it i wasnt thinking about how much juice that Wii takes.

ive been through a few now. they last, but they look like refurbished ones.

def. gonna get a wii charger

4/17/2007 11:31:42 AM

new wiiconnect24 post!

Punch Out! is awesome. thankfully i still had 500 points left, instead of 100ish like some of you other poor guys. that would suck.

so does this mean better VC releases now?

4/17/2007 9:22:37 PM

they need to make a modern day punch out.. like the wii sports boxing where you can use both remotes to box

4/17/2007 9:34:38 PM

In tennis, is it more embarassing to hit yourself in the head for a serve or to hit yourself in the balls for a forehand?

4/17/2007 9:43:37 PM

my GF hit her little cousin in the head on accident playing tennis

4/17/2007 9:56:12 PM

I downloaded punch out this afternoon. I forgot how truly fun that game is.

4/17/2007 11:47:25 PM

me too.. downloaded punch out. and rented paper mario, which is real fun, and wii play which kinda sucks

4/18/2007 10:54:15 AM

i cant get that code to work...says, "No active coupon with this code was found!"

4/18/2007 11:10:43 AM

ok im stuck on chapter 1-3 in paper mario. where the ye old signpost is with the writing on the side.

it says pres - and 1 at the same time. nothing is happening. and i even went to that blue post in the other door.

what next?

4/18/2007 11:36:48 AM

^^They say to mention the code in the comments field of your order and they will manually process your coupon. Whatever that means.

4/18/2007 11:36:50 AM

^^did you stand on the post and do it?

4/18/2007 11:37:58 AM

anyone know where I can buy the batteries for the nyko wii charger? I dont' need another charging station....1 is enough for 4 wiimotes.

4/18/2007 11:39:00 AM

ahh yeah. i just ran to the blue post and did it. haha thanks anyways.

4/18/2007 11:40:28 AM

^^I contacted Nyko about it a while back and they said that they won't be selling the batteries separate from the charger itself.

4/18/2007 12:59:49 PM

its only $30 for the kit

you would probably have to spend like $20 just for the batteries.

4/18/2007 1:10:48 PM

true....i guess you are right.

4/18/2007 2:39:32 PM

ok never mind i found the other pixi

you know you could just buy rechargable AAs, and then you could even use them for things other than the Wii, like a digital camera for example...

4/18/2007 3:50:54 PM

why o why can't i beat King FatAss? geez its taking too much effort this time around.

4/18/2007 4:06:02 PM

King Hippo?

4/18/2007 4:33:11 PM

Super Paper Mario = badass

4/18/2007 5:41:37 PM
