	I've had my Wii for the 2 years it's been out and I love GH for it. I can't wait until they release the 80's for it. Or even a 70's game for it. -----signature----- As long as you don't talk to the voices in your head, you're not crazy I learned everything I needed to know from GI Joe Still have HD DVD, I'm buying Blu Ray, that means I'm PURPLE now Smash Bros.

	Got a problem with my Wiimote! Brought it round to a friends to have a game of Mario Kart and while we tried to sync it up the lights that flash showing it has battery stopped flashing and the Wii no longer recognises it. I've switched batteries and such and the same thing happens, any ideas anyone? -----signature----- Signature: Small amount of text shown at the bottom of each of your messages. 250 character limit.

	@greengreatwarrior I'm not sure what problem you exactly have but I can say a few facts. For your own wii you can synchronise your remote by opening the battery flap, then pressing the synch button under the front flap of the wii, pressing the other synch button on the wii remote. The wii remote should flash its colours and then synchronise itself with your wii permamenently until it is synched permanently with another console or an error happens like it sometimes does (and you just synch it again). If you do not want to synch a wii remote permamently to another console but want to use it to play you can do so by using the wii remote settings feature on the home button menu, where you can do a one time synchronise with the console by reconnecting the controllers, this will not affect the permanent settings. The only other problem I can think of is a faulty wii remote.

	Finally got around to playing Mega Man 9 for a bit tonight (downloaded it awhile ago). Only had time to try out a few levels, but it's a good taste of things to come. Good mix of clever and glorious ARE YOU ****ING KIDDING ME?! evil challenge. So far: Concrete Man: Good stage, easy enough to pass after a few trys (if you can get past the second elephant without much damage, you're pretty good to go- sucker's difficult to find a good pattern on though). Concrete Man himself seems easy enough in pattern but both his primary attacks are paralyzing which lead to a very quick death. I speculate either Splash Woman's, Magma Man's or Jewel Man's weapon might be effective but just guessing here for now. Which is worse for concrete? Getting it hot, wet or drilling it? And yes, you're lucky I phrased that question instead of Leto. Jewel Man: Trickier stage, the swinging platform physics can be deceptive when combined with Mega Man's jumping range. I don't think it's possible to get past the faced-boulder mini boss without a boss weapon- need something to freeze him in place long enough to get more than a single shot at (presumably, Concrete Man's weapon most likely). Hornet Man: More difficult stage- lots of spikes above and below in tight jumping areas at times, dangerous enemy units that combine into scissors and homing missle sprouting flower pots, thoguh the latter can be defeated with stragetic use of the screen edge. Second phase (though sill prior to a check point) deals with homing cannons that you have to activate to track you to destroy blocks to permit you to fall further into the level. Got stuck around there. Tornado Man: Interesting stage. Very platforming-intensive and vertical as you'd expect from an Air Man-esque level.The rotating magnetic platforms are very cool though- just gotta make sure you land in the middle otherwise you're thrown clear. Timing your rotation (or rapid jumping if your not sticking to them) to other similar platforms along the course while avoiding spikes can be tricky. Hopefully will get a chance to check out the rest of them tommorow. Still, very cool and it's a relief to have something designed to be a challenge. Though, I must admit, I very much miss the slide and megabuster charge shot- might even have been able to take down the faced-boulder if i had the charge shot. -----signature----- "When your future self tells you to do something, YOU DO IT."

	I recommend doing Splash Man or Galaxy Man first. From there, just go in order of the robot master weakness chart available on GameFAQs. I've been playing some Wii Fit today, and I am so sweaty. It really gives you a good workout. -----signature----- Will do moose stuff for money.

	I need to get back to doing WiiFit. I only can successfully do the Torso twists (well, as successful as you can get if you're me). I have a terrible time with balance games (I always make mistakes during the ski shalom) and I'm okay on the run, but it gets tiring running in place for that long, especially if you have to hold the wii-mote or put it in your pocket. I tried doing one of the Yoga poses, but it was too complicated for me. The Rhythm boxing is kind of fun. -----signature----- Current Fic: Lightswords of Fury: Special Edition - L/M Romance http://boards.theforce.net/beyond_the_saga/b10477/24270936/ Chapter 19 posted on 7/21/08 Coming SOON: Mara Jade of Chandrila Grove Coming SOON to SAGA Fanfic

	I have to get back on my Wii Fit. I slacked off so much. But then again I had someone hit my car, and I got laid off. I do lift weights though. -----signature----- As long as you don't talk to the voices in your head, you're not crazy I learned everything I needed to know from GI Joe Still have HD DVD, I'm buying Blu Ray, that means I'm PURPLE now Smash Bros.

	So I finally found some time to do some gaming again, and decided to start with Super Paper Mario since I was borrowing that one. The dimension switching aspect is a neat concept, and is used a couple times to good effect (at least as far as I've played- only beat the Chapter 1 levels so far). There's also some humor (the Count's assistant's personality, to the small touches like the guardian robo-dragon's eyes turning into the Wii connection circle when trying to access a database). However I'm finding myself really not getting into the game that much- the story seems like it's trying to be a parody or satire of your typical RPG story, but at the same time it has moments that could be generally epic or creepy if they were taken seriously. And it takes WAY too long to get into the actual gameplay. I'm also finding the platforming aspect, while a welcome addition to the RPG form, just not compelling enough. The first boss fight though, with the robo dragon, is quite awesome though- one of the largest Mario enemies I can recall off the top of my head, as well as slightly more complicated than some other recent Mario boss fights (though still a bit easy- I still haven't had a need to use any items I've collected yet). Still, I don't think I'm going to continue with this one- not out of it being a terrible game or being too hard, just not clicking with it. The gameplay might have actually ended up being very enjoyable as it has a brisk pace, but the story constantly interrupts it and makes it a stop-and-go experience. I also picked up Mega Man 9 again so I could finish at leats trying out every stage since I had only had the chance to play the first half of em last time. They deservingly kicked my ass (though I think I could have beat Galaxy Man's stage if I could figure out that warp ring puzzle mid-way). One of these days I'll actually beat one of those damn levels. Approvingly challenging stuff. I also played Super C for the first time in decades and went pretty far solo without the Konami Code. I didn't realize the top-down stages were intorduced this early in the series. Reminds me of the Rambo game on the Master System (the only game I ever recall my friends and i wanting to play on that besides a built-in sidescroller). As for the Rabbids charger- so far it's working pretty well, though the eye color lights representing the charging status can be very sensitive in relation to the wiimotes on the station and occasionally flicker back and forth if there's significant vibration in the room. I'm hoping to be able to set aside a day each week to try and devote to catching up on my 3 generations of backlogged game purchases (though I want to get Zelda out of the way first so that will take a little longer), because it's difficult for me to justify buying any more console titles (even ones that have been really tempting, like The Conduit, Madworld and Punch Out!) with so many yet to really play. I figure if I can at least get the Wii and GCN titles out of the way, I'll be able to tackle the fewer PS2 and N64 titles at a more leisurely pace. -----signature----- "When your future self tells you to do something, YOU DO IT."
