« on: November 28, 2006, 02:08:38 PM »
i really want one tonight... and now i have the extra cash to get it right now... so please let me know...!! also what game was out there that came with an extra wiimote?? for like 60 bucks? or whatever?... and if i had to pick one game to buy should it be Zelda? or what other game has been  :o since launch?

also how do i purchase stuff from the virtual consol... do i have to buy points at the store first? or can i just enter credit card info once i have the wii?

its called wiiconnect24

the online stuff right now is wirless only :(

luckily for me my sister has a wireless connection set up in the house so i'll be able to use that..

but.. in january or so you'll be able to get a usb to wired ethernet adapter for it (which is what i'm holding out for).. and be able to connect it up just like any other computer through a router.. if you just had a modem.. i guess if its dsl you need a router.. if not some kind of wirelss gateway via ya pc.. i dunno..

i went to Target, Game Crazy, Frys Electronics, and Game Stop yesterday and nobody had it... i did happen to buy a Zelda Collectors edition for the game cube from some guy that was trading it in... for 20 bucks... which is good seeing as they go for 60 bucks or more used on ebay... its the one that came with the game cube for a couple of months... includes the original zelda, and the Zelda Links Adventure for the NES aswell and Ocarina of Time and Majoras Mask for the N64, . . and i also picked up some old school NES games that i needed to add to my collection... 720, RC Pro AM, and Tecmo Baseball

I got a Nintendo Wi-Fi USB Connector yesterday at my local EB Games, so my Wii is online.  I'm waiting to get my 2,000 pts to purchase some games  ;D
