Buy Wii

If you've been too busy trying to buy Wii, you may want to know that Activision, the creator of Guitar Hero will be fixing a known bug with Guitar Hero III. It so happened that they failed to release Guitar Hero III with the ability to play in Stereo sound. And yes, that means no Dolby Digital II even though it states so on the box.

Activision was kind enough to be working on a new version which should work. Anyone who purchased Guitar Hero III with the nonworking disc will get a free replacement by Activision  They are also working getting downloadable content for the Nintendo Wii.

Nintendo has just released a huge feature in the Virtual Console world. If you don't know, Virtual Console is a feature by Nintendo that lets you download old console games anywhere from Super Mario Bros for the NES to Sonic the Hedgehog from the Genesis. The new Virtual Console feature allows you to buy a friend a virtual console game. It comes wrapped in a nice holiday envelope.

This is a great way to give a friend a classic game you probably both enjoyed. Just imagine giving Super Mario Bros to an old friend and it only cost you a few dollars, but gives so much more. This is a great feature by Nintendo and they released it at the perfect time. People will be busy giving each other virtual console games now!

Toys R Us seems to be the king of giving us great Nintendo Wii deals for the Winter holidays. Last time they gave out a $25 gift card to people who bought Super Mario Galaxy in store, but that turned out to be an issue because the pre orders outsold any stock they received. This time they are letting people buy 2 Wii games and get a third one free.

The promotion is even working for preorders which means you can get NiGHTS and Super Smash Bros Brawl, which are going to be two outstanding games. If you were already looking to buy a couple of games, this is the way to do it. Be sure to be quick because you don't want them to run out of the best Wii games because there are a handful of games that stand out from the rest.

I wonder if Toys R Us will be having anymore deals with the Nintendo Wii. By the looks of it, we'll be seeing some more.

Everyone should know about Super Mario Galaxy. It is the next big Super Mario release since Mario 64 for the Nintendo 64. Recently, Toys R Us was offering $25 gift cards to people who buy the game in store. However, there was a problem.

People found out that Toys R Us didn't have any in stock because the pre orders were larger than the quantity in stock they had. This leaves a lot of bummed out Wii owners because if there is any game to won, it is this one.

There is no certainty when they next shipment will come, but by that time, the $25 gift card offer may expire. It's better you buy it from wherever you can find it like Amazon.

A big issue that has been brought up is whether Nintendo Wii will be able to sell games that are intensive and take a lot of time to develop. Some examples include Zack and Wiki: Quest for Barbaros' Treasure. This game is very epic and very highly reviewed, but it only sold 30,000 copies in the first four days. Then to make it worse it only added 15,000 a week later.

This is kinda strange because there are 3.7 million Wiis in the United States. It also didn't do well in Japan where it is called Takarajima Z: Barbaros no Hihou. It also had a great combination of characters, visuals, and action that should have made it a great game for the masses.

This is a big problem for the Nintendo Wii as many large game developers will consider NOT developing for the Wii because of recent performances by games like Zack and Wiki.

Nintendo Wii console has been selling like hotcakes throughout the past year, but 3rd party game developers aren't convined yet. There aren't that many 3rd party games out there just yet, but most of the bestselling games have come from Nintendo.

Julien Merceron, CTO of Eidos, says the true test for the Nintendo Wii is these holidays. People will either buy a ton of 3rd party games and then spur more 3rd party developers to invest a lot more into Nintendo Wii, or 3rd party developers will do poorly and might stop developing games for the Nintendo Wii.

This is an important point in Nintendo Wii's timeline. Having a rich variety of games and large investment will be huge for the Nintendo Wii if it really wants to take it to the next level. We'll just have to see.

If you don't already know, virtual console is Nintendo's way of offering old console games to the Nintendo Wii. They are just easily downloaded games you buy from the Wii Virtual Console store. It's always great to kick back and play with nostalgic games.

This week is a great week because we have one of the best games to ever come out. Super Mario Bros 3 for the NES is now playable on the Nintendo Wii and it's only 500 Wii points. This game is simply epic and amazing.

The other two games are Power Golf and Blue's Journey. Power Golf was for the Turbografx and costs 600 Wii points. Blue's Journey was for the Neo Geo and is 900 Wii points.

I have a feeling that Super Mario Bros 3 will sell like crazy. The good thing is that there can't be any out of stock issues like the Nintendo Wii faces.

Manhunt 2 is big on the news recently with all the controversy regarding how the game will turn kids into criminals. Even big news anchors like Katie Couric voiced her opinion of how bad the game is for kids. Well things have turned even worse for the Vienna team responsible for the game.

It turns out that 55 people from the Vienna team were left out of the credits for Manhunt 2. Another interesting tid bit is that the Vienna office was actually closed on May 2006 by Rockstar. This is unfortunate because creating games takes a lot of hard work and dedication.

Some awesome games are being released this week. Some are going to sell like wildfire while others apeal to parents and young children so all that really means its a good mix for everyone.

Here's the list...

Guitar Hero III
Battalion Wars 2
Manhunt 2
Barbie Island Princess
Bee Movie
Ben 10
Disney Princess: Enchanted Journey
High School Musical: Sing it!
The Simpsons Game

There are some amazing games on this list. Guitar Hero III is going to rock this world (no pun intended). If you've never played, you owe it to yourself to buy this one. You'll never be the same. Manhunt 2 is going to amazing but keep it to mature people. Battalion Wars 2 has been getting great reviews, so check that one out.

The rest of the bunch will attract people who interested in those in real life. I'd imagine Simpsons game will sell really well.

Remember the amazing Sim City and The Sims? Well the creator of both loves Nintendo Wii and that means he wants to create his latest and greatest games for it. This latest and greatest game is called Spore, which is supposed to simulate life in some fantasy world. It should be pretty amazing.

The creator's name is Mr. Wright and he's a big fan of the Nintendo DS as well. Ones game he likes is Advance Wars for the DS. He also says there's not a single game he is totally obsessed with. He plays them all.

He's a true gamer!
