Wii in Australia thread

[AndThen?]

WOW FOUR-THOUSANDTH POST!

I think that the graphics for SSBB are weird - the characters look great but the items look pretty woeful so far.

I got the original Smash Bros. today

I had it a while ago but it got forcibly removed from my possession...

It's back now though.

All is well.

Urmm, WiiFit!:



The more I learn about this game the less I want it.

Hello! And thank you Eagles and gpoleweski for you birthday wishes! ... It seems parents decided for my birthday to get me up at the ungodly hour of 7am. Anyhoo! I am now awaiting some kind of message from my friends - and I certainly expect them to wish me a happy birthday. I shall be signed onto MSN all day awaiting it. Now, I may not be ON the computer, but it shall prod them into action. Because if I appear Offline they go 'But I think you were offline.' Apparently they have never heard of the concept of 'appearing offline' and 'offline messaging.'

Anyway - I bought my Wii on about the 9th. I've said it before, but my town doesn't really have any stores that sell cool things, so I had to wait until the weekend to go somewhere decent. Funny though - on the 9th I was told (Big W) had HEAPS of Wii's left. About Two weeks later (when my Wii threw a hissy fit) they said they ALL SOLD OUT on the 7th. I was tempted to them they didn't, but I don't think it really would have helped. Sure, they probably meant by then they had sold out, it's just the way the person phrased it it sounded like they were saying they had no more AT ALL after the 7th.

Anyway - because of that and having to get a replacement Wii I can't calculate accurately (enough) how long I've played it for. Let's just settle on I have no life between this forum, the Wii and other internet sites. I seem to hang around here more and more often. I go through... Where I appear then disappear again. This is the longest I've ever stayed around!

Edit: And WOW I am 4001!

Hey guys, does anyone know if Trauma Centre: Second Opinion will be coming to Australia?
I was really hoping after we missed the first one that we'd get this...
If I import the UK version instead, will it work? Will it stuff my Wii?
Any thoughts would be appreciated.

[Yeungy]

Second Opinion was the first one and New Blood is the newest one.

[Eagles]

Deanis, you can play the UK game as they are both PAL.

[gpoleweski]

It's me! I have returned...from yesterdays post....

I think I did alright with my math test...I hope I did, if I do it'll all be thanks to Eagles, what a great help, I couldn't have done it without him.

Hope your having a nice birthday Jen, and if anyone wants to have some 'fun' I'll be on gabbly. Ask for the link if you need it, or it's on the page before in a post by Eagles.

WOOOH! 4005 post, hopefully we get to 500 on Christmas day, just post as much as you can, if not then then we can try for New Year, probably impossible. But don't be stupid about it either. Then we can PAAAARTAAAAY!

[Deanis]

I heard somewhere you have to change ya Wii settings to UK location to play UK Wii games...and if you do that you lose your VC games....true?
Oh and yer I meant New Blood

[Eagles]

That sounds like rubbish to me.

[gpoleweski]

But aren't you able to put you VC games onto an SD card? If that is even true?

And get a load of this 3rd Party-Nyko wireless nunchuck!

I know it wouldn't be a nunchuck 'so-called' anymore without the wire, but who cares if you need it, who cares what it's called, I guess we really need some more info on how it runs, like batteries, and the button layout looks a tad weird I think they should be just below the Z-button, to either side.

Also, it's 3rd party, I dunno. I might wait until Ninty releases one, I don't need it anythime soon, I'll wait for reviews. How about you?

I am having difficulty comprehending what's going on here - and I dont even feel drunk. I shouldn't - not after two drinks... that may or may not be high in alcohol. I think maybe it's just because I'm tired. I WAS woken up at the ungodly hour of 7am. Yes, ungodly.

... I came here for a reason. Really, I did.

Well, anyways thanks everyone for the birthday wishes! It makes me happy - a lot of my friends didn't bother to wish me happy birthday. I guess I still need to check myspace - but the ones that haven't done it yet don't USE myspace.

... I am just going to go and concentrate on the msn conversations.
