ThePigMarcher Posted June 14, 2010 Posted June 14, 2010 There's a very good chance that I'm going to be selling my Wii soon (not going to get into why here) but I did have a brief question which I hope someone can answer. If I decide to format the system memory and unlink the shop/NoE account, as recommended, what would happen to the 19 or so VC games that I had downloaded? The are already backed up on an SD card, so if I included the SD card would the new owner still be able to play them, considering the aforementioned formatting and unlinking. I would assume so, but wanted to make sure before I get around to listing the thing.
Ike Posted June 14, 2010 Posted June 14, 2010 VC games are linked to your Wii, they should still be able to download them though I'm not sure if you format it. Unlinking your account won't affect it, your purchases aren't bound to your account (though they should be).
Ashley Posted June 16, 2010 Posted June 16, 2010 Ummm.... Why?/nobody tell my mother that this game exists.

Ren of Heavens Posted June 16, 2010 Posted June 16, 2010 As great as the conference was I'm still disappointed with upcomming third party Wii support. Goldeneye is the only interesting new title announced and even that feels a bit soulless and uninspiring.
Cube Posted June 16, 2010 Posted June 16, 2010 After not having a Wii since a few days before Mario Galaxy, this conference has made my wanting a Wii and I'll have it by this time next week. Which means that on top of all the new and upcoming games, I also have Brawl, two Mario Galaxy games and a few others to look forward too. On top of this, there are also quite a few titles that aren't the big Nintendo ones that I need to play. LoveFilm will be great for this - I just need some suggestions. What Wii games do I need to play?
Ashley Posted June 16, 2010 Posted June 16, 2010 de Blob is fun but you could always wait for the sequel (unless you find it cheap), Zach and Wiki, Hannah Montana...

What Wii games do I need to play? Zack & Wiki, No More Heroes, No More Heroes 2, De Blob, HotD: Overkill, Dead Space Extraction, Sin & Punishment 2, Silent Hill, PunchOut, New Super Mario Bros... These would all make fantastic rentals. Also Little Kings Story, but that would make a better full purchase, because it can be found really cheap and has 40+ hours of gameplay.

I mean nothing, the wii doesn't have any good games....

Truth be told, from everything I have seen now, it seals the deal that the Wii is the best system (for me) this generation, congrats Nin, you have my money
Cube Posted June 16, 2010 Posted June 16, 2010 There seems to be loads more than I could have imagined.
LostOverThere Posted June 17, 2010 Posted June 17, 2010 You'd be crazy not to consider buying anything with a score of 85% and up Anything with 75% or higher is at least worth a rental.
Emasher Posted June 17, 2010 Posted June 17, 2010 There are a few obvious exceptions, I'd say, but 85% does seem about the right place to cut it off.
Cube Posted June 17, 2010 Posted June 17, 2010 Another random question: How likely would it be for Nintendo to activate my VC purchases on my new Wii? I would guess that the chances are very slim.
STOOPIDDITTIES Posted June 17, 2010 Posted June 17, 2010 Lower than the chances of England winning the World Cup.
Emasher Posted June 17, 2010 Posted June 17, 2010 You might as well call them. They actually have decent customer support, so you'll at least be able to understand what they're saying.
Cube Posted June 18, 2010 Posted June 18, 2010 They said that if I can get the police record of the theft and the old Wii Console number (which I have), then I they'll sort it. So it all depends on if I can get the record from the police.

Cube Posted June 19, 2010 Posted June 19, 2010 Or hope Nintendo aren't too thorough with checking and make one up. I phoned up but lost signal (I should probably try on a home phone). The process seems to be: - Get records number from police - Send a written letter to some address asking for the report - Wait - Scan and email report to Nintendo with required details.

LostOverThere Posted June 22, 2010 Posted June 22, 2010 Wii System Menu 4.3 is available: Changes include: * Deletes the Homebrew Channel and DVDX, title IDs HAXX, DVDX, JODI, DISC, and DISK. * Now uses IOS80. * IOS254 stubbed BootMii is deleted. * Fixed Bannerbomb less stupidly this time. * Added IOS58 (For "YourShape" USB Camera) * Overwrite cIOS's. * Removed ability to use Riivolution. Nothing exciting.

LostOverThere Posted June 22, 2010 Posted June 22, 2010 I will place my hard earned monsies on 36 hours.
