There's the Wiimote plus, there's a classic controller pro, there's a new Zelda game which requires us to use the motion plus, a device that made me wonder whether or not Nintendo thought we were idiots because quite frankly I can't see why I should get it just for one lousy game. It's not a good investment you know? I like Zelda a lot but one game? One game only? As good as it might be, that's just a bad investment to buy a Wiimote plus for. Also as much as I appreciate the help (I really do, thank you guys) people that suggest the cumbersome add-on don't seem to get the point I'm making, it's still the fact that I'm buying an extra peripheral for the one game.

It just doesn't seem like a person can justify such a purchase, you know what I mean?

Anyway there's all of a sudden these 3 European RPGs that seem to have some level of mystique about them, though I do not really understand the context of and what it's all about, having not been aware of them. The 3 being Xenoblade, The Last Story, and I believe a Pandora's Tower?


Is it worth getting a classic controller pro if I already have the classic controller? Is there really much of a difference between playing... say... Xenoblade with a regular classic controller and a classic controller pro? I don't know if I want to buy a classic controller pro for just this one game. And whether or not those other 2 aforementioned RPGs would play better with the device.

As well as other games such as the ones available on the Virtual Console that require a classic controller. And how much more comfortable the CC Pro happens to be.


So basically, my points boil down to:


1) Worth getting a wiimotion plus despite the lack of games I'm interested in for it? If there are any other than Red steel 2 and aforementioned Zelda?

2) Worth getting a classic controller pro as a controller I'll be continuously using for many various games, not just these new RPGs?

3) High profile games released now, within the apparent end of the Wii's lifecycle?


And... I think that's all? Unless there are other high profile/low profile games I missed besides the new Zelda and these RPGs I know little about other than praise that's been given by people? I actually just finished doing a few Wii purchases on Amazon to catch up on 1 or 2 games released in 2010 and even from previous years.

Oh yeah didn't I mention that in my original post? I was going to post another paragraph on how in retrospect, 3 years is not as short a time as previously assumed, and it's almost the same time span between RE 4 and RE 5. Then I was going to go on about how time flies.

But I decided against it. Didn't care enough.

So another game in the series, RE 6, and it's coming out for all 3 systems by October of this year? Well color me surprised. I wonder what the plan is for this series. I guess I just assumed they were going to go back to the drawing board after RE 5, but I guess they're maintaining whatever format they set up with that game?

If you perhaps want to find the name of the song or artist who sings it, and you can't quite figure out the lyrics or know much about the song, do you have a go-to website that helps you identify certain pieces of music?

For example I remember being recommended some iPhone applications such as "soundhound" that proved to be rather useless given their advertised features, so that particular venue was a bust. However I'm sure there are more successful options, if you happen to know any.

Given the unique situation, it's not really something you can postpone on buying is it?

I'm told that people found it boring and that nothing really happens or is explored too much concerning Jung or Freud, but I personally liked that this movie basically amounted to conversations. Just felt it was really solid and kept my interest for the 90 minutes of film, so yeah.

Also, I'm now wondering if this movie had a limited release or something. Or rather, if all of Cronenberg's films usually have limited/small theater releases like A History of Violence or Eastern Promises, which in particular was the movie that made me want to see the rest of his work and collaborations with Viggo Mortensen since I really liked that movie when I saw it in 2007.


So what did you like about the movie or not like?
