Last-Gen Console Discussions (PS3, Xbox 360, Wii)

I personally don't care about getting a Wii.

I've got the game system I want in the 360 and if I did get another one I would get the PS3. I just personally like the games for those two better than anything the Wii has put out yet.

I don't know if I mentioned this, but I also saw "The Classic Controller" for the Nintendo Wii in the store as well.

Are they becoming more available where yall are at as well?

anata wa wakarimasu ka.....

theyve been out here since the wii came out 😛

Classic controllers and wiimotes aren't that hard to find around where I live, it's the nunchuks that you have to search for.

Yeah, I saw a nunchuck as well.

Strange because you'd think they'd be equally as available or unavailable being that they go together. They should have sold them together in a package.

I'm sure they seperated them so they wouldn't have to put both of the prices together for once package so that they could sell them seperately showing their current prices.

I know if I buy a Wiimote though that I'm also buying a nunchuck with it, so yeah....don't really think they should be sold seperately.

Well, what I think may partially be it is the fact that Wii Play comes with a wiimote but not a nunchuk. So people get that and then get a nunchuk to go with it, and thus then there's fewer nunchuks than wiimotes in stores.

Weeeelllll, lets get the actual buying of the Wii out first.

Then we can talk about the lack of controllers.

I thought maybe somebody would find the picture amusing.

I already have a Nintendo Wii and being that I'm American, you know we only care about our own problems individually. 😉

Good job, you just reminded me of Indiana Jones. 😄

Well it looks as if the PS3 20 GB is no longer available at the Official Sony store...

itrackr has the 20 GB as 1% availability in the US, the 60 has around 80 I think.

So we lost power last night twice.

I just went to play my Nintendo Wii and I see the red light isn't on. I go to press the power button to turn it on and it won't turn on either.

Is this normal? Is my Nintendo Wii messed up now?

anata wa wakarimasu ka.....

Well I tried unplugging it and replugging it (The Adapter that is) but it didnt work, so I decided to research up on this problem online.

It didn't really help. In the middle of the researching, I decided to unplug it again but leave it unplugged this time while I continued to look for help.

I decided that I may have to get into contact with Nintendo and may have to get a new one. weep

So I go to NIntendo's website and they actually have a troubleshooting area and I followed that for a while to see if that would work.

So I get to this thing that instructs you, if it's necessary to, to reset your AC Adapter, which I didn't know anything about.

It instructs you to unplug everything from your Wii for 45 seconds.

Well by then, I had had my Adapter unplugged for a very long time, so I decided to plug that back in now to see if it would work before I'd have to unplug EVERYTHING...............and it just TURNED BACK ON.

As enthusiastic as I am (And pissed that my whole day was basically waisted) I'm still very concerned by this.

I'm sure it had something to do with the Electiricity going out last night 2 times and once more today for a few seconds, but still I don't think that's suppose to happen. My other appliances did not have this problem.

Plus while research online I found that there have been many Power Supply Problems with the Wii, with it not actually getting any power at all and people hooking up Car Batteries to supply powre and having to get New Wii's sent to them or new Adapter's sent to them.

SO yeah.

I'm worried that this may be an ongoing problem and may develop into something bigger. I may be paranoid though, but I'm very peculiar about my possessions.

Should I get into contact with Nintendo even though my system is working now or should I just leave it alone and see if it happens again, and even if it happens again and is solved in the same way, should I still talk with Nintendo about this?

...360 is the best...

Fanboyism is ironic.

so, just because i like 360 more, i'm automatically a mindless fanboy??

I think it's more the simply stating "360 is the best" and nothing else that makes you come off as a mindless fanboy.

Not to mention that comments like that that add absolutely nothing to the discussion are completely pointless and do nothing but annoy and antagonize.
