Lol its better than zero WiiConnect24 support the launch games have..

You will need a Wii VGA cable and that is a separate cost..not sure if its released yet..

Kinda baffles me though....always thought the sensor bar relayed some kind of info back to the wii

Yikes...harga digoreng lagi? Thats bad, one would have thought the price would go down

Haha but this is the first time I hear the price go down, then naik again. I thought it would at least stabilise around RM1,700. But now its 2k without game!

Games are region locked.

US games - NTSC/UC
Jap games - NSTC/J
Aust games - PAL

So you cant use American games on an Australian console for now...

All About Nintendo Wii

The Nintendo Wii is the 7th generation console released by Nintendo. It has considerably lesser graphical juice compared to XBOX 360 and the Sony PS3 but aims to capture the fun of gaming through the games and creative use of both its motion sensor controller - the WiiMote and Nunchuk.

Currently, there is 3 version of the consoles, NSTC/UC, NSTC/JP and PAL. The games are region locked so becareful which version you buy. There are rumours of an Asian release but no updates on that yet.

The SRP for the Wii in other countries are US$250, A$400 and 25000 Yen. In Malaysia, the price can range from RM1,700 to RM2,000.

The Wii is Wifi-enabled where you can shop via the WiiShop or connect to friends via WiiConnect24. It is also able to connect wirelessly with your Nintendo DS but at launch, this feature is still being worked on.

Once upon a time, Gamers Hideout, TNL and Imbi Mario all offered the same package. For slightly above RM2000?

Now, no more. Probably due to high demand and low supply.

tis reminds me...string!!! send me ur mii...it is too lazy to walk into my mii parade...

LOL better than me..i only create one for myself, for my gf, for my dad and for my sis..coz they all play the Wii..

Dint bother making funky ones

I think some guys figured out how the sensor worked and tried it out with candles. and voila it works.

Btw, wah no need to put the first post as by zio

Zelda is around RM250 the last I checked.

Ermm to ur speakers? If your speaker only has 1 input, then you need to get a 2-to-1 converter...

The 2-to-1 converter is easily available in any electrical shops so no worries on that

Everybody takes a chunk of profit..lol so in the end consumers suffer..

Most americans looks the same...

Well, the strap is pretty flimsy, I inspected it the other day. The thicker Wiimote strap certainly looks more secure.

He didn't get stockl last Friday. No supply lots of demand..

Ermm you can definitely post here my friend. LOL this is not exactly GH thread

Tak yah PM PM, I believe GH knows that they won't be the first to carry in the games...there are certain establishments that have been around longer than them..

Hehe nvm la...the fact that GH is slightly slower is good for me..give me time to play other stuff

Lol well, when I need a game badly and they don't have it, I buy it elsewhere. So I guess it depends on how badly you need the game.

izzy: Nope, dint call the guy. I'll slowly wait

YOU should remember me

I was your teammate hahahaha

haha my gamertag was nicklwc

LOL same as my sig la...unless Im mistaken who you are...ur mr zaakath jr right? Yes i know you hate being called that



I think there was a similar thread in XBOX section and I believe LCD TV came out tops for now.
