  1. I can't find your Wii code in the profile. I'm probably being blind. Still in need of some vouchers people!
  2. You can see the logo from a mile off- 2ii - kind of thing I'm not so sure. You could call it 'Gibbons' and just add a strapline 'from the makers of Wii' and it'll sell. But codenames are alwys being banded about; Starcube, anyone?
  3. Give Cassamassina his due; he can hold the Nintendo channel together. I've barely read it since he left.
  4. Are these from Epic Mickey, Ashley?
  5. I'm not sure whether you're pointing the blame at the publishers. Retail, ultimately, decides what games are successful by the amount of stock they buy - retailers have probably been hit by HOTD Overkill, The Conduit, Dead Space and have no wish to take a risk on yet another 'core' title. But even then, retail is taking its prompts from the Wii demographic - if there is not the audience there, things just ain't gonna sell. I am starting to believe, sadly, that the audience is not there.
  6. since i can't watch that interview, can someone summarise?
  7. I have a feeling that we'll see Wii HD launch this year - but not as most would expect. I almost expect to see a cheap but powerful off-board upscaler released as a stepping stone to a whole new machine in 2012/13. Its daft enough for Nintendo, anyway.
  8. Can you recall what else they had?
  9. Ae these pre-owned or new BOGOF?
  10. I thought the tin set had a standad white case inside.. mine has the horrible red one
  11. If Nintendo simply add some Metroid style back tracking, add some VO work, orchestrated music and a cohesive, exciting and original story - colour me pleased. For some reason, i'm expecting a First Person Slasher though.
  12. Limited Edition Tin Box Available At Game - in store tomorrow The staff tell me that it should be £34.99 but price not confirmed until day of release. Apparently.
  13. We are basically planning our options. We've been using Lindsey's laptop but its hit and miss as to whether it actually comes on or not. I want a decent desktop, and a netbook for portability but also as a quick route to getting on the net at home. Lindsey also has an iphone and i will be getting an Apple TV in the new year. It seems sensible to have a hard drive that is accessible constantly, rather than to boot up a desktop to stream stuff to/from iphone and apple tv. I'd rather not keep a desktop running 24/7. A NAS option wouldnt require anythign particularly special to stream media from? Thanks for this input, keep it coming.
  14. I accidently bought two copies - one from gameplay (non tin) and one from Game (tin). Gameplay has arrived today, while Game has not.... agony. Does it come up with a message saying "failed to create order" in tiny red writing. It did this when i tried; it'll let it go through with free postage but not paid for next day. Really frustrating. I too tried everything, and assumed it was the fact that my work address stated "fault" in the personal details bit... but its a correct address. Gave up in the end, and just opted for second class.
  15. Now, is this at all possible? We want to get a wireless harddrive which would be left on, and access this from a netbook wirelessly from around the home - storing itunes and apple tv stuff - will we be able to access these wirelessly with an iphone and apple tv, or would we need to have turn a computer on anyway?
  16. You would. I would. Thats the sad thing.
  17. On one hand, Casamasina is right, Nintendo could have created a freh 2D game- but that was clearly not the design brief. NSMBW is imed sqarely at the DS owners who have not yet bought a Wii
  18. I would have sex with my Wii if it had a vagina.
  19. I'm very tempted by this myself - although with Mario out next week, it may have to wait.. I thoroughly enjoyed WaW - and this looks to be a good improvement. Its a shame there are framerate issues - how bad are they guys?
  20. Sorry to bump for such a trivial thing- can some of you kind N-E'ers send me some freind vouchers?
  21. Hello Lostie

     

    We are not yet online; we have placed an order with Talktalk- we're on their LLU so should get a slight speed increase and shouldn't get caugt up with the congestion on the BT network. Should be fully back online in just a couple of weeks!

  22. and can you have two local players s online opponents?
  23. What are the online options? And whats the pricing like for DLC? And is it saved to system memory or SD?
  24. Out of interest, whats the deal on the downloadable stuff on Beatles Rockband? Its is still solely Beatles songs, or can you access other music? If not, would I be able to use the Beatles Rockband instruments with either Rockband or Rockband 2 (to access the other music).
  25. Have you bought any new home appliances? I've read somewhere that things like christmas lights, florescent lightings and microwaves can affect the speeds you get with broadband (please correct me if i've dreamt this!). Just a thought.
