2GB SD card

1 (maybe 2) extra controlers

DVD dongle

 

Games:

Zelda (thats my #1)

Metroid

Red Steel

Wii Sport

Excite Truck

But maybe others aswell... I'll probably end up buying all the games from Nintendo... :heh: But it really depends on what the final launch list will look like, and ofcouse pricing of the console, controllers and games...

Hardware:

White (to go with my 360) Wii

Black 2nd controller

4GB SD card (if the Wii has a 360-style in game music player, then I'll get one even bigger-there is something strangly satisfying about playing the Nurburgring in PGR3 in splitscreen while listening to Guns n Roses and the mighty Led Zep, and I imagine the same would be true with Wii Tennis or a mulitplayer sword fight in Red Steel.)

 

Games:

LoZTP

MP3:C

Red Steel

Wii Sports

CoD3 (If it does support cross-console online multiplayer, like CoD2BRO did, then I'll get it for 360 for the improved GFX, unless reviews say the Wii version is kickarse to play...)

 

I've started saving, as I have all the 360 games I want this year until the Wii launch period...

 

Then by/at Christmas, I'll get 2 more controllers

Really depends as others have said on the launch titles themselves and of course price, but working in Gamestation I plan to take advantage of my discount (and being able to take the console home a few days before most people in the country!). So far:

 

Wii Console - undetermined colour, will decide when we know what is coming

Zelda (Wii version ofc)

WarioWare (if available)

Either Metroid or Red Steel (gotta try an FPS out on the Wii!)

2nd Wii-mote

 

Hoping Wii Sports is bundled with the console.

 

Will probably buy an SD card once I've started playing VC games.

 

Thinking about Trauma Center, but having heard that it's actually a remake of the DS game (Which I already own...), I'm undecided.

Don't worry it's not a port.

 

Atlus recently issued a statement clarifying some details about Trauma Center: Second Opinion, which originated from Japanese publication Famitsu. According to Atlus, the game, which is currently in development for Wii, will in fact be a launch title in North America.

 

Instead of being a port or revision of the DS title, Second Opinion will be a completely new game that takes full advantage of the Wii Remote though a revised control system. According to Atlus, there will be new surgical implements and operation types, a second playable character with accompanying new missions, multiple difficulty modes, enhanced graphics and animation, and more for the title. It was also noted that there will be even more new gameplay elements revealed over the coming months leading up to the game's launch.

 

Finally, Atlus described the expanded role of voice acting that will be present in Second Opinion, and explained that its presence will once again help "enhance the drama and punctuate the action."

I'll post this here aswell since it's to do with the launch so here goes.

 

Red Steel got confirmed for November in Europe today by Ubisoft UK.

 

Ubisoft UK has revealed that Red Steel for the Wii is scheduled for release in November, pointing to a November release for the Wii itself.

 

In a press email sent out today containing new screens and information on the clans and environments in Red Steel, it has been revealed that Red Steel is set for a November release. The email states "Red Steel is set for release on the Nintendo Wii in November 2006."

 

Original

post.

 

I suppose there might be a slight chance of this being fake because not many places have reported it.

I'm surprised at how much people are getting on day 1 - how are you going to have the time to really get into them? And how will you afford them anyway?

 

I expect I'll get the console, an extra controller, Zelda, Metroid, and Wario, if it's a launch title. That'll be more than enough to keep me going for a while.

Good call with the VC game Ocelot. I'm really surprised how much money everyone has to be just forking out what looks to be about £400 on release day.

 

Me:

 

White

1 controller (probably red)

Zelda

Metroid

Excite Truck or WiiSports

DVD dongle.

I'm looking foward to Metroid Prime 3 and Zelda Twilight Princess.

 

I'll probably get those two games at launch. After I beat those games I'll move on to Red Steel and the others that become available.

 

No need to rush things. : peace:

..few sandwiches.. glass of coke..

 

..oh.. launch.. :blank: .......um.. haven't really decided, not even sure I will be able to get a Wii when it comes out as I may have to wait a couple of months to obtain sufficient funds.. but Zelda and Red Steel are candidates and I would love to download a few classics on the Virtual Console..
