soldier of fortune

No probs, I would think in this current climate re climate change nintendo would have gone for rechargable batteries, maybe its something they'll phase in for the future.

i used the word concern with ref to the nick's post about rechargable batteries. So still no luck Jax, man if it was me i'd be raging!

i will be putting this on series link!

not heard in these parts my friend... Go Football, not soccer, football.

Yeah thats a slight concern, i'd imagine battery life would be pretty good out of them though. Did it show up yet Jax?

We'll finally get this, its starting on Sci Fi in the next week or two

fuck, he's back! Was worried bout you man? Home Alone was one of the first films i ever owned on VHS! That was a great film... i'm gonna give you to the count of ten, to get your no good keester offa my property, 1,2, 10 !!!!!!! :shoot:

huh?

yeah, i only voted yesterday, so i brought us ahead!

Lunging, is when you dive in with you're feet. That was a flailing elbow, wouldn't call that a lunge. This would be a lunge Roy Keane this also

Games normally stop after a Ben Thatcher tackle though Like this one Tis soccer all the way for me...

Its what nostalgia does to us all... Even the crappy stuff we liked, we're not gonna admit it was crappy

aww man, that sucks... hopefully you'll get it soon enough!

So did you get it? According to the wii official webpage you can have up to 4 players on red steel

Personally i don't think the wii is made for games like that, thats why there is the xbox 360, PS3 and PCs! Its a whole social gaming thing, yeah you've your xbox live and shit, but nothing beats having four people with you pissed, playing bowling on wii sports, or wario ware when it comes out. Its very like Mario Kart on the N64, man that was an awesome four player. Over here i've not seen one in any shops, HMV, Virgin, Game, Gamestop, nada.

Command & Conquer the first decade, 12 games on one disc!

Those fucking dog things freaked me out! Ghostbusters, ah the memories....

Well from that Boards.ie place it appears the US Virtual console gets more, plus i read it on Eurogamer.net the other day

In Ireland they have bundled WiiPlay with a Wiimote and sell it for 49.99 I dunno if they have anything similar with you. Re the points i imagine you can buy them direct from Nintendo's Website rather than paying a shop. Some shops sell 2000 points over here for €40 which is double the RRP. Basically 1 point should equal 1c. Therefore 100 equals $1 or €1... you see what i'm saying here... but the games on the channel are quite good, yet to buy any, but i believe you guys get a larger selection in the virtual console.

well those people crazy as they seem had the right idea I got wii play just for teh extra remote, they're €45, but i got wii play for €49.99 and it came with one. The nunchucks are hard to get, and i'm gonna get my points on line, they're cheaper.... no store mark up on them. Want to get a second nunchuck so me and jan can kick the shit out of each other in wii sports boxing I got mine, i'm a member of boards.ie a forum, and there were guys reserving them all over the country, you get a reserve code, then you've 48 hrs to collect, so way i figured. anywhere within one hours drive is close enough, and a guy had one, so he pm'd it to me, totally kosher, www.argos.ie for details on the reserve...

sorry bout the off topic rant, it trancends threads! I'd say teh wii mote's are sensitive enough, but i imagine the stocking problems will shortly be erradicated, they're become easier to acquire in Ireland thats for sure... Before christmas not a hope, don't lose faith brother nick!

The first film i can remember seeing in the cinema was the 1st ghostbusters film with my parents! Then the first film i went to see without my parents and just mates was Jurassic Park when i was about 12. Just came to me after a conversation me and nanno had today.

Doj, no offense mate, but your full of shit, I don't know of any shop that has had demo wii's in before or even since launch, At all. I know they did wii roadshows, but there weren't many of them. I now know why 2t goes at you hell for leather, its cos you come up with shit, all the time. All this time, all this debate thats been on the boards about wii, you casually mention you tried it in a shop, yeah fucking right mate. You'd have said it at teh time, to brag about it! But no, cos you were backed into a hole you threw out that chesnut. Its the internet for gods sake, but you don't need to fill everyone with shit all the time. I know you probably don't think you don't but you do at times, we all exagerate at times, but you do it more than others. I've met you, had beers with you, generally enjoyed your company, to me that is your biggest flaw, the whopper story telling. Call me a cynic but hey, thats me, like a tin of ronseal, does exactly what it says on the tin, i'm not a net scizo, i'm not out to impress anyone, i'm just here to shoot the breeze and have a laugh without being a pretentious wanker. I'm hyped about wii, especially now after playing one, will be picking up zelda tomorrow hopefully i'll be even more hyped. You're happy with your 360 and your games, thats fine, i can honestly say i've only ever played it in the shop for a few minutes, thats all, don't know anyone in my locale who has one... maybe i'll get one of those too to see what the fuss is. We are after all human and entitled to our opinions,and as this board isn't censored, its good to get these things off our chests.

woa there horsy, you said on msn yesterday you'd not played a wii yet!? So you play one today did you? IC- Warioware is out on the 12th think this will be mine when i get paid on the 18th, currently copies of Zelda are like gold dust over here. As for the virtual console updates, i'm hyped up about that, seems the us get the better games first though, but there are a few snes one's i want! Also i would say i'm a Sony fanboy, but i decided, fuck it, i want a wii to see what the fuss is all about, and to be honest i'm more than happy with it, its great fun, i know its technically inferior to other next gen consoles, but i don't care man, the fun myself and nanno had with it last night, can only imagine the hijinks when we play it pissed!

i'ma posting ps3 related shit in the ps3 thread... This is getting way too off topic!
