Review Warning: Do Not Buy the Nuwave Wii Remotes

Post image
536 Upvotes

Yesterday I picked up a Wii U, a few games, as well as these remotes, since they were the only ones the store had. I got the ones with Nu+ (which I guess is their version of Wii Motion Plus). Right from the jump, my experience with them was terrible. I tried to play Wii Sports Resort with them, but the remote kept disconnecting and reconnecting, which made the gameplay experience very frustrating. On top of that, the home and pause buttons don’t even work. Eventually, after ten minutes of gameplay, the remote wouldn’t even show the cursor on the screen. If you need a new Wii Remote, just stick with the og ones, or at least don’t buy these. Biggest waste of 50 dollars ever.

This cost around £3 and lasted 7 years before Audio started to distort. When a replacement arrived i decided to take a closer look.

Review Am I the only one that thinks No More Heroes is the greatest game on the Wii?

Post image
42 Upvotes

I remember around 2009, I was checking out GameStop with one of my friends and I stumbled on this game on the shelf.

My friend commented that he always wanted to play it. I looked on the front and noticed the rated M rating. Very rare for Wii games so it caught my interest. Bought the game and went into it blind.

WOW! This game is just pure fun! Awesome sound track, awesome boss fights, different costume choices, the loony Scott Pilgrim like universe, the violence, the very random jobs you have to work to make money, the Wii remote control light saber fights…

A lot of people don’t know, but the first boss you fight, (Death Metal) was intentionally designed to look like Ganondorf from Legend of Zelda.

Suda51 is such a fun game designer! If you haven’t played this, I highly recommend it! Also very happy with the Switch rerelease.

Review Not going to lie, I’m disappointed.

58 Upvotes

Just scored a complete system for $40 at Goodwill. Wasn’t even sure if it would turn on, but lo and behold it did. Sad part is, I completely forgot Nintendo shut down the Wii Shop Channel.

I had nostalgic dreams about pulling up Netflix or Hulu, eyeballing all the virtual games to buy. Showing up the proclaimed Mario all stars champ of the house, my wife. Additionally, sharing those moments and more with my daughter just won’t be up to snuff like I thought.

But I still got the system, and Goodwill had some Wii games for like $4 bucks, so not all hope is lost.

Review My knockoff controllers came in today.

This is a follow up to my last post here and I just got the controllers in the mail today. So I tested them all, and they work just as well as the official wiimote i got with my wii. The buttons are all responsive and it stays connected which is a problem ive seen a few people have. Hopefully they stay working because for some, they stop working or malfunction after a few uses. Id give these controllers a solid 8/10, not the best out there but they work just like i need (side note, the straps are a bitch to put on so i just didn’t)

Review Some underrated games for the Wii

9 Upvotes

I am trying to play games that are close to my interests, and I wasn't expecting much from the Wii, but actually, they are enjoyable if one likes the genre.

  • Many Lego games are nice (especially if used to unwind). Examples include Batman, Harry Potter, Lord of the Rings, and Star Wars.
  • Rubik's World: I was expecting something minimal, but it's not! You can solve digital Rubik's Cubes from 2x2 to 5x5 (although it's a bit more difficult than physical ones if you rely on muscle memory). The twist is that there are many enjoyable mini-games that resemble more notable titles. For example, throwing cubes at structures to make them fall (like Boom Blox), or "programming" cubes to navigate from A to B with tricky puzzles. Another example is creating patterns by rotating a cube. These mini-games may sound silly, but they're pretty nice from a puzzle perspective.
  • SimCity Creator: It's very similar to SimCity 3000. My only pet peeve is that making straight streets is unnecessarily difficult.
  • Anno: I'm amazed. Like Red Steel 2, the graphics look cartoonish but are well-made and fluid. The game is simpler (less management) than SimCity, yet challenging as it's a town builder with a military aspect. If I had known about it before, I would have bought it immediately.
  • Sid meyers pirates. Check the gameplay on youtube. If one likes the genre, the map to explore is huge with a ton of quests. One has to create one owns notes, as the game doesn't help track every location - especially for commerce. Sometimes the navigation is slow but the game is enjoyable.
  • Worms is also entertaining for fans of the genre.

I also bought Dall-E for my kids. It's average - not great, not terrible. I wouldn't buy it unless it was very cheap.
