djamb3 Posted August 14, 2006 Share Posted August 14, 2006 I don't ! And August is in the middle so we will be hearing something really interesting in the next days (maybe release date tomorrow...? ) And you want more peripherals? I think there's enough already....

Blue_Ninja0 Posted August 14, 2006 Share Posted August 14, 2006 I want as less peripherals as possible. They just divide the market and a lot of them are just wasted money. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ShadowV7 Posted August 14, 2006 Share Posted August 14, 2006 Do you think it will be possible to save GC games on the Wiis flash memory? I mean if someone didn't get a GC but got a Wii ,it wouldn't be nice that they would have to go and look for a memory card.And if VC games can why not GC saves.Sorry if this is been confirmed already Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
djamb3 Posted August 14, 2006 Share Posted August 14, 2006 Personally I don't believe. Because it's suposed to use the GC games you already had as well as memory cards. They aren't exepcting people to go buy new GC games... But would be good Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll buy 4 rechargeable AA's too. EDIT: Wait! I already have them. They'r on the freezer so that they loose it's charge, because i have not been using them.

Raven Posted August 15, 2006 Share Posted August 15, 2006 cheers dudey i cant quote UK prices and the like, but id say to go for NiMH batteries, they are the sort that are advised for digital cameras and the like. They last a LONG time in gameboys, can be recharged heaps, and for something like a remote, will last even longer. they are pretty expensive... but hey, you get what you pay for!

RevoJack Posted August 15, 2006 Share Posted August 15, 2006 Wii will use the 802.11b standard, and your wiresless rounter only use 802.11g ? that will prob. not work. =( EDIT: Aha.. Now I see in the tech spec: "Ethernet, Fast Ethernet, IEEE 802.11b, PPP, IEEE 802.11g, IEEE 802.11b+" It will work with Wii !!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Teppo Holmqvist Posted August 15, 2006 Share Posted August 15, 2006 Do you think it will be possible to save GC games on the Wiis flash memory? Nintendo actually did SD memory card adapter for Gamecube in Japan. Device worked pretty well, but Nintendo stopped producing it because there wasn't enough demand for it. It was also tad expensive. http://www.lik-sang.com/info.php?category=78&products_id=776 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was also tad expensive. http://www.lik-sang.com/info.php?category=78&products_id=776 No demand because Nintendo was afraid of it ending with their own memory card sales, so they threw in the memory card limitation of 127 save files (per card), and didn't allow you to save files in the SD (perhaps afraid that you transfered them to the PC, never needing a memory card again). Aside from that there were no games using it apart from Animal Forest e+(plus) taking advantage of it. the original idea behind SD was IMO providing what the 64DD promised.

James McGeachie Posted August 20, 2006 Share Posted August 20, 2006 It's pretty likely the Wii's online service will be exactly the same as DS's in almost every way, Nintendo are just like that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
