On the eve of the European Wii launch, word has come from Japan that gamers are getting too excited with the Wii and accidentally throwing the Wii Remote towards their TV sets.
Nintendo president Satoru Iwata has acknowledged the issue and is preparing to hold an internal investigation.
"Of course before the launch of the Wii hardware Nintendo had a number of tests on the durability of everything including the strap," Iwata told reporters in Japan. "But our understanding right now is that even beyond our expectations people are becoming more and more excited playing with the Wii."
Shigeru Miyamoto added, "We are encouraging people to understand that you really don't have to be so excited but rather you need to understand the control and then you're going to be the best player.
"We are looking into the situation to see if there are additional methods to encourage people to kind of calm down so they would never throw away the controller itself."
VGChartz's Evan Norris: "Is Ocarina of Time as legendary as I remembered it? For the most part, yes. In spite of a handful of missteps — a few obtuse puzzles, some tedious backtracking, and a clunky stealth sequence — I don't believe the last 23 years have been unkind to it. Ocarina remains a brilliant example of the medium, a landmark game that shaped the future of its own franchise and 3D gaming in general. After more than two decades it retains its inventive dungeon design, challenging puzzles, dynamic combat, wistful storyline, unforgettable music, and empowering open-air freedom. I feel confident calling it one of the greatest games of the fifth generation, even if I'm no longer prepared to list it among the five best games ever made."
Pure unadulterated fun. They don't make them like this anymore...especially not the triple A industry.
Back when video rental was a thing, I rented out Majoria's Mask, I never finished it though. I did buy the 3DS version before the eshop shutdown, so maybe one day I'll finally play through the whole thing, it's amazing how well these games hold up though. I briefly played Ocarina of Time for a while and it was really fun.
While the mainstream media always sees things turning in favor of the hero, here are 6 games that own being a bad guy.
Pretty much all of these games listed are based around a morality system you don't have to be bad and you don't have to be good.
It seems to have left out some real amazing games like red dead redemption 1/2,ass effect and true crime la/ny
Armored Core VI?
Ok, I'm really missing something here. Just beat chapter 3 earlier this evening, unlocked A-rank Arena fights. I'm not seeing or sensing any branching paths or morality system and I've done every side mission and arena fight available to me up to that fight.
Is something big coming soon to branch the story?
No mention of Grand Theft Auto? Saints Row (original trilogy), Manhunt? Also The Suffering (depending on the ending you get).
Trevor in GTA 6 is a sadist and psychopath who dabbles in cannibalism. Should be top of the list. These game “news” sites should hire people that know games.
Nintendo has announced the SNES and Super Famicom games gracing the Nintendo Switch Online library this month, and there are some gems to enjoy.
Strange headline, as I thought the star of the show was Super RType. I almost bought RType Dimensions EX this last month and was just thinking, man I wish we had the SNES one somewhere on Switch. That's where I got my start w the series and I was beyond excited to see it drop this week!
NO you are wrong nintendo! its simple !!!! you are a freaking moron if you let go of the controller!
i bought my wii at launch...and have played it 2-4 hours a day whenever i get the chance. ive never even had a close call with releasing the controller and im ranked pro in 4 of the 5 sports avaliable (damn you golf!!!) but not only this but ive got 2 younger brothers who are always dying to play. As of yet (knock on wood) neither one of them has had a close call with letting the remote go...although the 6 year smacked the 12 year old in the back of the head in a game of tennis one day....ahhh good times.
All you need is to flick the wrist, its not that innovative, what a gimmick i sold my wii wii after realizing im not a 5 year old boy anymore...
Say it with me now... GIMMMMMICKKKK

BAD GRAPHICSSSS
= Wiiiiiiiiii
have fun swinging and swooshing your controllers playing zelda and wii sports because you guys aint getting any more games for such a long time lol ... nintendo is a joke they should come to the next gen already...
but trust me...its no gimmick...im 21 and games have never been so addictive and ive never been so hooked. not only that but its not just me...my grandmother even wanted to give it a shot the first time she saw it and played my father in a round of golf. and yeah as for the ppl throwing them around...its fun to really get into the game(tennis etc) but for games like zelda and MUA i just chill out and use basic movements...and ive had no problems so far :)
