[QUOTE="bowserjr123"]

[QUOTE="Haziqonfire"]K so i just got 2000 Wii Points. Just wondering, what should i buy with the 1100 i have left (i had a 100 from before)

I just bought starfox 64 -- so far i only have Mario Kart 64 in mind, i dont want super mario 64 (i have my N64 cartridge) and the only other game im thinking of getting is LOZ: LTTP
Haziqonfire

Yeah...LttP is a great choice, the GBA version was really fun.

How is Starfox 64 so far? I love the Starfox series, but I've only played Assault, Command, and Adventures. Is it worth the 1000 Wii points?


Actually havent played it yet, i've been too busy. Im going to try it tonight though.

Definately get LttP. Easily the second best Zelda at least.

They have the same songs, but you can't download songs, at least not at this time. I don't think it's likely to see them have download able content either.

Wii Sports. Other good ones are Madden and Mario Strikers Charged(not a simulation game though). There is also the Deca Sports title that is coming out sometime, although I don't remember when exactly. :P

The multiplayer is decent. If you're looking for an FPS with local multiplayer, Red Steel is probably your best choice right now. The single-player campaign isn't that bad, either. The sword fighting is weak, unfortunately, but it's an okay game overall. I think a $20 price tag fits the quality of the game.

Thanks. I'll probably download it in the future maybe after I download a Wii Ware game or Super Mario RPG(if it'll ever come out).

well mario kart WII should be coming out may 1sr (if it doesnt get delayed) so that should be on the top of your list as well. Also if you have a GC controller dont worry about getting the classic one. I dont know what other games to suggest, what do you like? RPG's? Multiplayer games? sports games? party games?

well I'm not really too familiar with games back in the old days other than classic 2D mario and I have the original zelda on GBA so I'm really willing to try anything. Prefferably not "hockey" or something like that.

I like action, more action is better.

Everyone talks about Kid Icarus and wanting a new one but I don't know ANYTHING about it

Fire Emblem: Path of Radiance, Luigi's Mansion, Super Mario Sunshine, Zelda: Wind Waker, Metroid Prime 1-2, Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door, Star Fox Adventures, Star Fox Assault, and Pikmin 1-2 basically sums up some of the greatest 1st party GC titles.

You might want to try Star Tropics. It's kind of like Zelda, but better in almost every way.

I'd really like some reccomendation towards getting the Bully: Scholarship Edition for Wii. Smash Bros. Has always been somethign I'd only play at a friend's house, so I was looking for a more single player centered experience and was intruiged by bully ever since I saw it come out for the PS2 I wanted to own it, but couldn't until now. Anybody else psyched for this?

a game you should probably all wait for is the soon to come Super Smash Bros. Brawl! it's going to be online playable and has a variety of characters so if you like zelda, the mario characters, or sega characters you have your choice. you will probably never have to wait for a game online because this is a global game

Neither of them are rare, but that's still a good deal. They're both awesome games.

I'd really like some reccomendation towards getting the Bully: Scholarship Edition for Wii. Smash Bros. Has always been somethign I'd only play at a friend's house, so I was looking for a more single player centered experience and was intruiged by bully ever since I saw it come out for the PS2 I wanted to own it, but couldn't until now. Anybody else psyched for this?justdog11

The game does look interesting and from what I read in Nintendo Power, it's probably really fun. I'm probably gonna get it.
