does everyone in your family play Wii

if so which gamesdoes everyone in your family play Wii
Nope, just me. My dad will occasionaly play wii tennis.Edit: When MK: Wii comes out my sister said she's gonna play that with me.does everyone in your family play Wii
Only I play the Wii console, no one else in my family really cares about gaming.
My wife plays Mario Party, Warioware, and Wii sports. She doesn't really play one-player games. (She wanted to play Zelda WW and got as far as the room on the ship where you have to swing on the ropes. She said, ''can you get me past this point?'' I said, ''no, this is teaching you how to control Link, and if you don't beat this you'll get into trouble later.'' So she gave up, which was fine with me, because I didn't want to have to get her past every hard part in thewhole rest of thegame, and she'd probably give up, or get bored anyway.) My two-year-old plays a lot of Wii. I have a broken GC controller that I cut the cord off of, and I tell her she's helping me. My four-year-old doesn't fall for this trick anymore, shecan almost play Wii sports.
Nope. But my little brother does.
Just me. I occasionally play bowling and tennis with my friends and family, but the novelty has worn off a bit lol.
No.
Only my brother,at times.
No
Sometimes. My Mom and my brother used to play Wii sports a lot when i first got it, then they played a bit of Mortal Kombat, and now they play street fighter 2 sometimes. My mom is probably going to play SMG though.
my two borhters do, but my third only plays our 360, my parents will sometimes play Wii Sports or Warioware
nah... I just can't seem to get my parents to...
im the only one who plays regularlymy dad use to play wii tennis but he got bored of it and my bro occasionaly places Rayman Raving Rabbids
I wonder if any family ACTUALLY plays like in the Wii would like to play commercials.
Only my brothers and I play Wii together... My dad tried tennis like twice and my mom did boxing once...that was it



[QUOTE=''Duckman5'']I wonder if any family ACTUALLY plays like in the Wii would like to play commercials.[/QUOTE]

I'm sure they don't...lol
I hoard my system, after how long it took me to get it, I can't risk it. They wouldn't want to anyway. It's a good situation.
Nope, just me and my sister
well my family played it a lot when i first got it, but now they don't have time for it. they played mostly wii sports and strikers
if controllers weren't so damn expensive...
I have no kids, so no. My wife will sometimes play my DS, she likes puzzle games, Zoo Keeper is her fav. Other than that, I mainly play it unless I have friends or cousins over.

    Yeah I wouldnt mind playing this game on the Wii, it doesnt need to be chock full of motion controls either. Especially since they made a DS version, who knows maybe we will see a port at some point next year.
    [QUOTE=''Nintendoes'']...[/QUOTE]Like that's not original or anything lol.But seriosuly, who needs assassin's creed with our '08 lineup.

    Well, you could go buy a 360, and enjoy Assassin's Creed, along with many other high quality games on that system as well. Maybe that's too simple a solution, though. If you'd prefer, perhaps you could hold the developers hostage until they complete a Wii version?

    Oh my goodness, this topic takes me by shock! You mean the Wii's awesome graphics capabilities can't handle Assassins Creed? ABSURD!

    I have yet to see anything about Assassin's Creed that made me say anything other than ''meh.'' I'm not impressed, and can think of a dozen other 360/ps3 games I'd rather play.
    Assassin's Creed kind of dropped off the map with all of the great games coming out. It might be good, but I'm personally not interested.
    Try to get a 360 or PS3. The Wii is not getting a LOT of games.
    Need Assassin's Creed...looks.... so....awesome (reason for such broken speech is due to drooling at the 8 minutes of gameplay video and starved from not getting a new wii game since MP3C on September 7).
    [QUOTE=''bionicle_lover''] says you....http://rabbids.uk.ubi.com/images/entertainment/videogames/videogame_assassin_big.jpg[/QUOTE]:lol::lol::lol:
    yeah i dont really care. the game looks okay but not wii material
    Why would the wii get a major 3rd party game like that? Anyways I got the wii mostly for its 1st party games, i know most 3rd party games it ''does'' get are multi-platform and i'll get the PS3 version anyways. accept it, the wii is a 1st party machine mostly.

    Who cares. It looks like a typical Ubisoft game. 10 bucks says despite it looking great in bullshots, it'll be a big, sloppy, buggy mess come release.

    Connecting to other players.... HELP!

    So I've had a week from hell trying to get an online game going on Madden 08 and FIFA 08. Now I have no problem connecting my wii to the internet and I have no problem getting on EA's servers. The problem is when I try to challenge another player, the system thinks and then gives me the message ''Connection to opponent lost. Session has ended.''At first I thought it was a port forwarding issue so I did some research and forwarded all the ports required. When that didn't work, I thought maybe my router itself was the problem so I went out and spent a hundred bucks on a linksys. I went through the whole port forwarding/triggering routine but after hours upon hours on the phone with tech support and doing research on online forums, I still could not connect to other players online. At this point I am suspecting the problem may be my ISP (I'll get to that later).Interesting side note, I took my Wii over to a friend's apartment and I got connected to online players within seconds. He also uses a router (however, we didn't need to forward any ports or make any adjustments) but he uses a different ISP than myself.I also became suspicious that my ISP is the problem after the tech person from linksys and i spent hours exhausting all my options. He told me that it seems that the problem might be eminating from my ISP. So to test whether the problem is my ISP I went out and bought a LAN adapter for the wii and tried to connect to a game through a wired connection. Again, the internet worked, I got a connection to EA's server but still could not connect to a game with other players.My ISP's name is Novus (local downtown Vancouver cable and internet provider) and they actually provide an extremely fast fibre optic ethernet connection straight out of the wall (no modem, the entire building is wired for fibre optic internet). When I called Novus' help desk, the guy insisted that they don't block any ports and that he ''personally knows people who game online with the wii through Novus' internet service.'' What put me off quite a bit is that nobody at Telus, EA, or Nintendo had any clue or suggestions as to why I cannot connect to other players online. So I humbly and desperately have come to this forum in hopes of finding an answer (even if that answer tells me i'm screwed, at least I would know and can move on!)So, my question to all of you is: is there some issue that prevents the wii from working with fibre optic internet providers? Is there anything else I could do to get these games working online? Is there anything I can demand my ISP to do? By the way, I asked them to give me a static IP to see if that would help and they answered ''we don't give out static IPs for testing purposes.''Connecting to other players.... HELP!
    I have the same problem but I don't know how to fix it. However, I can sometimes avoid it. All I do is create a game and wait till someone joins it and then SOMETIMES it connects. I just keep trying till I find someone I can connect to. I also thought it was a port forwarding issue and I still do. No matter how many times I've tried to forward all my ports, for computer apps, I still don't become connectable. The only thing I can think of is that my ISP is somehow doing this.Connecting to other players.... HELP!
    It likely is the isp. ISPs often have some protocol codeor other issuethat can result in games not connecting or having issues. Thisalso occurs with hardware as well.The Nintendo Wifi USB connector doesn't work with AOL and a few other ISPs unless you do a workaround. Call the Novus help desk again and ask for a more senior guy especially an engineer if the one you get still insists they don't do anything that could block the connections.

    Scarface Wii (Boats So Weak!!)

    Make sure you have bought enough boats...I had most of them at that time...take boats with highest armor and when your boat is about to explode...jump out and immediately call your driver and ask for another boat...that's how I did it.How is the game so far?just want your opinion :)Scarface Wii (Boats So Weak!!)

I dunno why the people put 6.0 - of rank but.. is very good , interesting good music, but i am staked in that mission, and i cant destroy that boat.. is so strong.. what are u recomended to flunk that?
    hope u get this message, cause i know how u feel. if u havent beaten it already, here's the best strategy i got for u. once u see evena slight pixel of the boat. start shooting, dont aim for the other boats, ull die. try to alternate slowing down and speeding up, it might minimize the damage. once he's dead, run like hell. as soon as the confermation pops up that u completed the mission, u might want to jump out the boat before it explodes

    BWII IGN Hands-on lame :/

    I don't want to link it, but its there. He said the controls do little for the experience, the online was devoid of tactics because its a face off of last man standing so yeah.BWII IGN Hands-on lame :/
    Well that sucks.BWII IGN Hands-on lame :/
    why don't you want to  link it?\
    [QUOTE=''nintendo-4life'']why don't you want to link it?\[/QUOTE] because i'm lying :roll:[URL]http://wii.ign.com/articles/827/827436p1.html[/URL]
    Yeah, not expecting anything really from this game.
    Ignore what I said before. Just read the hands-on, and I guess you're right. I'll still wait for the game to come out to see if I'll really like it.
    A bit disappointing,Hopefully they'll include more online options in the final game.
    This game could have probably bin made on the GC.
    None of you are reading the preview!!! They were blown away by it.
    [QUOTE=''Cactuar_Scott''] None of you are reading the preview!!!They were blown away by it.[/QUOTE]Yeah, although the TC should have just posted the link.
    [QUOTE=''Cactuar_Scott'']None of you are reading the preview!!! They were blown away by it.[/QUOTE]They never said it blow them away but they said that they liked it even with the limited optionsso thats good (Iam geting it)
    I think they were just being a little extra negative because they wouldn't let them play the single player. Matt's a drama queen, ya know.
    [QUOTE=''Cactuar_Scott'']None of you are reading the preview!!! They were blown away by it.[/QUOTE] Um, no they were far from it.

    That's because they weren't playing the strategy mode, just the straight-up battle one. :roll:EDIT: And yes, I mean multiplayer. I believe the strategy mode is called Assault...or maybe that's the battle one.
    [QUOTE=''dieworm'']That's because they weren't playing the strategy mode, just the straight-up battle one. :roll:[/QUOTE]Yeah andthey still had a littlefun with the limited demo and the new vids look great god I need this game.
    Good preview. If it's anything like the first one, it's clearly a good game.
    [QUOTE=''Mr_Doodle'']:shock::evil::lol: You had me worried for a moment.[/QUOTE] he is telling the truth, the preview was much more positive but what he said is still the truth :?
    Sounds like Matt just wasn't a big fan of the Skirmish mode, which was probably on limited display to begin with. Does anyone know the objective of the Assault mode? Maybe it'll feature more strategy to be successful.
    THeres still the Single Player and 2 more multiplayer modes that haven't been seen yet.
    Why do you people even care what IGN thinks? If you don't agree with them or you find their ''article'', (or that tripe they call content), questionable then simply disregard their opinion and move on.
