Power supply issues

Crappy warrenty

i've had mine for about 9mo no and only issue i had was the 3 red rings, and it was replaced in warranty no problems.

havent heard of any power supply issues myself or overheating, but then again, i keep it well ventilated, it does on occasion freeze up. but its quite rare.

cant you also plug in the old gamecube controllers if you dont want to use the motion sensor controllers?

exactly what i've been thinking the last few years
nintendo's advantage over sega was always their solid nintendo-only games, f-zero, mario, mariokart, all the "fx" games on the snes

my little brother has a gamecube, and sans pikmin, the only games i really liked on the gamecube were generic 3rd party titles like tony hawk, resident evil, and need for speed underground

re4 was out for like a year on gc before anything else.

i want one but only for zelda right now...nothing else really catches my eye...im probably gonna wait tho...until the initial bugs are fixed and more games come out...

are u starting to like it at all, i know the graphics **** but u really cant beat $250 for a new system

No, not really

Its fun if you have people over and are playing WEE sports but other than that...meh

For the price, i guess you cant expect much

xbox360 sells a cooler fan now cuz so many were and or are overheating. Now you have to spend more money to make it run

 

[supa_c 5,000+ posts]

if you want to play 1/2 the games on WEE you need the nunchuck...$25 more

****, i didnt know this.

anyways, one thing i do want to figure out is if the motion sensors will work on GC games, and the older games. Or if you have to have the GC controllers, and the old school SNES style controller as well.

theres not a ton of games out....

i agree the first person shooting games (COD 3) are difficult, but it makes it more realistic with the nunchuck/stick controller deal. Just takes time to get used to it.

Wait till mario and all that comes out, and your playing tournaments in madden 07.

is there a Mario game scheduled for release?

what about a Mario kart?!

 

[saywhat? 5,000+ posts]

mario kart will be available next year (the old one) and there are a solid 3 or 4 marios/warios being made. mario 64 being one of them....but made for this system, not the 64.
