I'm starting to believe that by the time that 'Wii comes to the counter', counter already closed sad.gif (not sure lah, predict only) There aren't much business going on in that counter. Plus, due to the recent 'launch' of these ahem DS games(well at least I think they're new(they have four games in one card or something like that), sucks to have them here), Counter will go down in no time!
*
There never was much business to begin with. Tho' during holiday periods, the business gets way better. Ask Pr1me to tell you about it smile.gif

The threat of those 4-in-1s to the counter? Non-existant. Sure, there will be people buying it, but it will not grow big enough to the point it is enough to shut the counter down.

EDIT: And in any case, Maxsoft would be aware of the piracy issues in Malaysia anyway before the introduction of these 4-in-1s...

Is it that good? I lost the interest in it after I completed the normal difficulty, I never even tried hard.

That, and collecting coins off ? boxes gets tedious.

It IS that good, heck I didn't even play EBA cos of that game biggrin.gif Well the graphics are just plain awesome, the controls,OMG the controls they R the best almost like Metroid!!! All u do is use the touch screen and you actually bounce the ball by hitting the touch screen!!! It doesn't get any better than that.

Perhaps it's because you are used to the metroid ish controls of that game. I used the buttons (hell, in that game to be able to use the buttons you have to turn ON that option - default is off). Ok lah, maybe you can say I can learn the controls, but it's just that tedious. (See training mode @_@)

Oh btw, the main basketball game can be only played Multi-Card. Which is why I don't like this game further. And the Single Card Multiplayer sucks. What was Nintendo/Square Enix thinking when they made the multiplayer segments, I don't know.

Wat was they thinking when making multiplayer segments? It's obvious they make the best multiplayer exclusive for multi card. That way people will buy another cart and they will earn money biggrin.gif Oh yeah I forgot you all hate Metroid-ish controls cry.gif I just don't get it dude.

Well, it's about personal preference....I don't like it, but surely there are people who love Metroid style controls biggrin.gif

I think we went too off topic in this thread already. Time to end the off-topic

But the Wii will retail here for around 1500 I think. About Metroid,it's OK. I'm just kind off dissapointed because of the lack of MPH players here. Well all I can do now is look for more friends in the Metroid Board biggrin.gif

I really hope it could be RM9XX since the price is 250 @ US. It wouldnt make sense for it to be at a higher price than XBOX 360 here. The graphics hardware isnt as powerful as a 360 as well.

If you are looking at graphic hardware, you are looking at the wrong platform all together. Wii is not about graphic. Wii is about inovative. Wii is about swinging your wiimote together like a nutcase while enjoying your game.
