Keef Posted January 7, 2008 Share Posted January 7, 2008 Piers I'm relying on you to tell me when a game worth buying comes out on the Wii, as I don't really keep up with such things... I actually need to finish Metroid Prime and then to Metroid Prime 2 for the Gamecube which has been sat unplayed for ages whilst I've been doing other stuff, then I can play the new Metroid for Wii. I also need to get my Wii online, as you can get the old school Super Metroid and Mario 3!

mockney piers Posted January 7, 2008 Author Share Posted January 7, 2008 It's nice to see someone prototype a concept and you can immediately think of tons and tons of applications.I hope so Brendan, in fact I don't see why it couldn't be done on the Wii.

barrymarshall Posted January 11, 2008 Share Posted January 11, 2008 Dunno if this has been discussed much of late (did a search but nowt came up), but does anyone have any clue when the Wii shortage might be coming to an end? I should have bought one back in October when I had the chance, but my flatmate got a PS3 about the same time so I decided to hold off until just after Xmas. Big mistake!

SeanMacGabhann Posted January 11, 2008 Share Posted January 11, 2008 The only reason I haven't picked up a Wii yet is because I have neither the space or time but I have been tempted several times and always check out stock levels when I'm around those kinds of shopsPretty sure the main HMV on Oxford St had some last weekAs for the PS3 - I've had 1 and 2 and was looking forward to 3 - but NOTHING has come out for it yet.

barrymarshall Posted January 11, 2008 Share Posted January 11, 2008 okay - cheers - I keep checking Play, Amazon, etc., regularly, but I guess I'll have to pound the old pavement. The PS3 is alright actually - there are a few decent titles - and for me it beats the 360, though the Microsoft machine has been out for longer and has a bigger back catalogue. I think you can do more with a PS3. Mind, a Wii is what I's after the noo.

Floating Onion Posted January 11, 2008 Share Posted January 11, 2008 Well seeing as Santa's little helper reads the forum I've now got an xbox 360. Quite impressed with it. Took me a while to get use to the controller (I'm a PC gamer), but definitely getting the hang of it.The capabilities of both platforms from a user stand point seem pretty similar. Once I get the latest update on the xbox it should be quite a decent media center. They'll now play DivX.

barrymarshall Posted January 11, 2008 Share Posted January 11, 2008 yeah, the biggie for me is that PS3 supports Blu-ray and has a brilliant processing engine that upscales standard DVDs miles better than most bog-standard DVD players, like my Samsung.
