Wii in Australia thread

Ubisoft has been pretty solid, though their quality is questionable.

I'm looking forward to Zack and Wiki, which has recieved great reviews. It would be the top third party game followed by Medal of Honour: Heroes 2, both of which are coming to Australia next year.

Meh, Ubisoft's quality has always been fairly questionable IMO. RedSteel was the first game I bought for Wii, also the first i traded in.

...but then I play Prince of Persia, and I can't help but forgive them.

Why would you? Red Steel was decent for a launch game, if it had spent more time in the works it would've been better but it was still enjoyable even thouhg it took me a little while to get around to playing it and now I refuse to play it, but the experiance while I was playing it was awesome. Red Steel 2 ftw!!

Anyhoo I think Ubisofts goods are too far outweighed by the bad, Petz and mediocre gmaes

ANd thats kinda the point... it DIDNT spend more time in the works, it was an awesome concept though, so I am keenly awaiting Red Steel 2.

Woo Red Steel 2 FTW!!

But why did you trade in Red Steel, whY?

Anyhoo starting to get good at GH:III on Hard tat fith note is really hard to get used too and its really annoying when it throws one orange note in the midst of a red-green-Yellow line, just makes it impossible to get perfect

I'm on the hard difficulty to, it is hard getting use to the five notes with four fingers.

How hard are Wiis to get in Australia? I am planning on buying one this weekend. Should i be able to rock up to my local shopping centre and find one in either GAME, EB, K-Mart, Big W or Target?

deity_link · 12-13-2007, 11:56 AM

Aidan, you should be fine in finding one there's usually a couple in all the stores down at my local shopping centre, it might depend where you live but you should be right to rock up to the shopping centre to get one.

Aidan. · 12-13-2007, 11:58 AM

Maroubra, Sydney. Not that far from the CBD. I guess I should be fine. I could always check out Bondi Junction if I couldn't find one a bit closer.

I got my Wii at launch, so I'm not sure of the situation with shortages etc. The only advice I can offer is to phone ahead - saves a lot of time. You should be able to find one somewhere.

Edit: Speed is clearly not my strong point.

deity_link · 12-13-2007, 12:03 PM

Yeah you should definalty be able to find one where you are its not exactly in the middle of nowhere or anything.

Nor is it mine but here we are

I phoned up GAME at Eastgardens as they are open til midnight tonight with the Xmas shopping. They have 12 in stock so I will go in and grab one tomorrow.

Ekiushi · 12-13-2007, 12:11 PM

I just had the worse night of my life! I won't bore everyone with the details. As I doubt WiiChat would allow the language I'd have to use to explain it. Lets just say I hate my father now. And it also involved storming out of dinner at the RSL club, and getting rained on. Oh, and the F word got thrown around alot.

I can't even say anything on topic.

Deanis · 12-13-2007, 12:24 PM

Ahhh I want the details...
Just came back from the shops, Chronicles in hand with two Zappers. Most fun multiplayer experience in a while, the Zappers work/feel fine, ignore what the haters say. Chronicles rocks two player, I can see single player being a LOT less fun though.
BTW, I traded in Red Steel as I was kinda broke at the time, and MOH just came out so I just went for that. Played a lote better, didnt seem quite as fun as I remembered Red Steel being.
