I Had Finally Gotten My Nintendo Wii.

Hey at least you have a Zenith. If there is any TV to use for RF, a good old American Zenith is the one!

...and bought it just in time, since '95 is about the time when they were bought out by LG.

To each their own, GaWK, but RF on a 13" television would be damn near painful.  For the same money that you'd spend on a RF converter, you'd be better served trolling garage sales and buying a better set.  A ten year old 19" television couldn't be worth more than a few bucks, though it wouldn't be white (that's what rattle cans are for).  Anywho - do what you want and enjoy the games that you picked up; you picked some fun ones, though Air Ride's kinda shallow.

On a smaller TV, it's cool though. We had a tiny black and white 3'' portable TV, and our dad hooked it up via a Y-adapter so we could watch people playing people playing SNES in another room. It was weird.

Your dad sounds like he has too much free time.

Nah, we wanted it, because I was tired of my siblings saying "JUMP OVER THERE!" and "GET THAT!" and vice versa.

This way the spectator party could watch in another room, and the game playing party could do whatever the hell they want.


He did have enough time to PLAY RAIL CHASE, however...

[MissaFX]

Is this the game you speak of?

[nat]

Hey, that's me!

[Kitsunexus]

LOL! Actually, Rail Chase is one of SEGA's more impressive SuperScalers.

[Turbo D]

Rail Chase kicks ass! We had one over at the golf land arcade. The seat would move around and vibrate, lol.

Yesterday, I've finally managed to get the RF modulator for the desired television to use for my Nintendo Wii. Since the computer had to perform scans, I was unable to report this last night (it's essential that I do so as early as possible for information accuracy).

After the initial set-up with the console, including the WiiConnect24/Internet connections, I have spent most of the day exploring some of the Wii's features and playing Wii Sports. So far in the channels, I have created four Miis replicating some of the important individuals I've met in my life in the Mii channel, and observed the weather forcast and news around a few parts of the world. In Wii Sports, I've fared pretty well in most of the games except Tennis, which I had the tendency to have a bit of misjudgement with the power and formation of my shots. In the first attempt in Wii Fit, also, I had gotten the fitness score of 64 (the lowest possible number is 20).

From these first events, I find the Nintendo Wii to be a pretty nice system, more relaxing than most others, as a matter of fact. However, I will need to get a Wii Points Card (since I do not wish to use a credit card, but these may be hard to find) to buy Virtual Console games with, an SD card to use photos for the Photo Channel 1.1 with, and also, as mentioned before, a GameCube Memory card and at least one controller to play GameCube and certain Wii titles. I will need to be taking much of a break today as my biceps are hurting from using it.

If anyone would like me to give them my Wii Number, message me in any way to do so. I will accept most requests for this.

Just get one of those prepaid VISAs, they rock for ordering things online, and best of all if someone DID get into it, they'd only get access to what you put on there, not your whole bank account.

And WiiPoints cards are not hard to find at all. WalMart has stacks upon stacks of them.

Check out this thread.  It's pure awesome.

Nice, nice! Thanks for showing me that thread, Necromancer. I'll be sure to add a few select members there .

I have also downloaded the Check Mii Out and and Everybody Votes channels today. They are not bad applications at all, and they do offer the unique applications of creating Miis for contests and sharing them around the world (for Check Mii Out) and to share your opinions and to predict the popular result on various polls that become available (for Everybody Votes). They are available for free, as a nice thing, and do not take up too many spaces at all. I had actively participated in both.

Be aware that it doesn't work unless it's reciprocal - they have to add you too.

Since it has been four days since I've given out my friend code on the "Wii Friend Codes?" board, I have managed to put in the several members in the Address Book that had given out there Wii Numbers there.

These members are of the following:

SuperPCEngineGrafx/Black Tiger
Joe Redifer/Redifer/JoeRedOther
PCEngineFX
Keranu
Nat
TurboSage/TurboStar/Shubibinman
Guyjin
PSPGameBoy926(from YouTube, since he had given me his through a private message)

The members listed are not within the exact order that they were entered in, as PSPGameBoy926 was put in before TurboSage and Guyjin. So far, only two from the list have registered me, whom are Nat and PSPGameBoy926. Nat had also sent me a private message today asking me how I liked my Wii (which I've responded to), and I've finally got the chance to send the Air Zonk, J.J.; and Jeff Miis to someone who would associate with them properly .
