Tomorrow night is the big day, and instead of going with wads of cash under your armpits, it’s better to go with a pre-prepped spending limit. N-Sider’s Wii calculator will help you do that very thing. It includes all the launch games, most the launch window games, accessories (limited to remotes, nunchuks, and classic controllers), and Wii point cards.
To add an er on the other side of “handy”, it also includes sales tax, which gives you a total right down to the cent while simultaneously giving me another reason to hate New York.
Less than 24 hours left. Budget accordingly.
They'd get $666 from me if I was buying one at launch.
blah. Around $270 tomorrow. Then another $54 for Zelda this coming Friday.
FYI meijer stores (or at least the one by me) are giving away free nunchuck attachments with the purchase of a console and a second Wii-mote on launch day only.
I've got a $800 budget I think. Kind of high because of the Norwegian prices.- Wii Console- Wii Play (or "Your first Wii game" which includes another wii-mote)- Nunchuck- Legend of Zelda- Super Monkey Ball OR Rayman Raving Rabbids.Which one should I get? Super Monkey Ball or Rayman? SMB seem to have a lot of nice party games, and a decent one player game. Rayman on the other hand seems… weird.
BTW everyone, GameTrailers.com just listed Ocarina of Time as Greatest Game of All Time (those weak-minded fools are no match for my Jedi powers….) which proves I'm not crazy. I can't help but wonder it that would be different if they'd waited till Christmas to do their survey. The cover of Gamepro this month calls Twilight Princess the "greatest Zelda game ever" which really gives me an almost orgasmic tingly feeling all over. I really want to play….I just keep telling myself only 20 more hours…..20 more hours…..
Go Rayman, Kimiko.My Wii budget so far is at $390.11. I'm gonna cap it right there so i don't succumb to impulse.
Don't forget the AA batteries!
They're not included? What a jip! This console fails.
XD
The batteries are included .. but the EB Games by my house couldn't let anyone play their kiosk on Thursday night because they were out of batteries. I think they were afraid to leave the store because of the shooting elsewhere in the mall that evening.
I was actually leaning more towards Monkey Ball Banana Blitz, Rollin… Why Rayman over Monkey Ball? (Just for the record, I love Rayman, but I read somewhere that Monkey Ball was a GREAT party title.)
