Re: Nintendo Wii hard drive coming soon?

i just heard IGN's NVC podcast tonight...
they also laugh at the fact that they are using the phrase "small number"

i personally think that Nintendo is using this as an excuse to put a price tag on a HHD...sadly

@ Bananiac and NESgamer-

don't forget that Wii has sold more of itself (by about triple!) than the other consoles...so that "small number" is still a very large fanbase...and these are the hardcore fans. everyone else is just casual ie my aunt and uncle who dont know dung about tech yet have a Wii...those are the non downloaders

ALSO...where does this "small number" come from??? i wish i had more memory, but i have never officially reported anything to contribute to those "statistics"...they're false and misleading

how many more people like me havent officially contributed? im sure there's many more..

case and point

Re: Nintendo Wii hard drive coming soon?

one more important thing...

Nintendo does have the ability to release a free firmware patch...that's inevitable. So any site of a Wii hard drive translates into: MONEY GRABBER!!!

PS3 did it with USB, so Wii can with SD. They are trapped now! Thank you Sony!

@rbt -
another good point as well. if that was the case, i would just end up deleting certain VC games, and never DL another VC game, in order to leave room for WiiWare titles.
For VC games, I believe there will be an increased number of ppl who instead use pirated roms on their PCs or NDS emulators (to which I have both but do not condone either!)

Who's willing to spend a large amount of money for something Nintendo should've given us in the first place? Something FREE, like a firmware update or patch, is more desirable.

Because remember, this is a mistake on Nintendo's part, so why should we pay for it?

Re: US VC Releases - 5th May - Pokemon Puzzle League

PPL is NOT the greatest puzzle game ever...Adamant and others......
Picross, tetrisphere, peggle, just to name a few, run much higher in rating than this par game...PAR, nothing more nothing less

there are much better games that need to be on this VC list. 10 bucks for a puzzle game that couldve run on SNES??? I dont think so
