Official Wii/DS Q/A thread. FAQ in first post! Game reviews in second post!

DH pre-ordered GH Aerosmith. He's a huge Aerosmith fan from way back. I'm sure we will have something to report once we get it.
 
Sorry if this has been asked....

Has anyone tried Trama Center: New Blood? It looks like it would be fun. :confused3

Looking forward to your report!

I have not played it, but I'm sure there are a ton of reviews on www.ign.com
 
2 player the whole game? So one person can't play by themselves? Are you sure they didn't select 2 player? My kids have said they want this but I'm afraid if it's only always a 2 player game that it won't be a good game for my kids as their interests are different. My one son loses interests quickly in role playing games and would rather be playing his sports.

I tried to search and find the answer but didn't find it addressed anywhere, only that it said it was for 2 players but that didn't exactly say always only 2 players.

I'm guessing she meant you CAN play 2-player the whole game. Unlike so many that have 2-player mini games only but the rest of the game is 1-player.
 

ok so i came across some $$ and I really want a Wii. Now the thing is I have two little ones 3 and almost 5. Are there kids games that I could get for them.

So talk me into buying one or talk me out of buying one.

Pros and cons. My best friend has one with guitar hero and I thought it was awesome!! I would like to get the wii fit also if I end up getting it. HELP! I really shouldnt buy it but I think my kids and I deserve it!! ;)

I say buy it! We just got a wii and wii fit last sunday. You don't want to even know the amount of hours that we've logged on that thing!!!! LOL I have 3 girls, 17 months (obviously too little to play yet), a 3 yr old and a 9 year old. My 3 year old can do most of the games with a little bit of help. Her favorites are the running, the soccer and the hula hoops. We just have the games that came with the system. The only extras that we got were an extra remote and an extra nunchuck. I wish we would have gotten this sooner. It's sooooo much fun!
 
Ok thanks for the info on Lego Indy I think I understand now.

Don't know if this can be answered yet but when Guitar Hero World Tour is released will you be able to buy it with the microphone, drum kit and such but w/out the guitar? And then w/the guitar?

If we get GH Aerosmith w/guitar then purchase GHWT we'll have 3 guitars and not that that's a bad thing but prob not entirely needed, so I'm trying to avoid an extra guitar purchase. I know that you can get Aerosmith with and with out and as much as the kids would like to play with/against each other right now we can certainly wait til Oct. (at least I can).

That is the problem that we have. I would like to get Guitar Hero Aerosmith with the guitar. I have decided to change my preorder to get the Aerosmith without the guitar. I guess we will have to wait for Guitar Hero World Tour to come out. I don't want to have 3 guitars.
 
I cannot find a Wii fit anywhere! Goodness, I am getting frustrated. In the small town I live my options are Wal-Mart, Radio Shack, & Blockbuster...so I am trying to get on online with no luck.

On the bright side, I put in my order for Guitar Hero Aerosmith on Amazon and I did the free trial of Amazon prime, so it'll be here on Tuesday!! YAY!!
 
I got the Guitar Hero for the DS. It's a lot of fun and has some great songs, but your arm gets tired quickly. It's a little awkward to hold the DS and hit the frets. Though I find it much easier than the Wii GH. I just can't do more than 2 or 3 songs at a time before my arms give out. I never knew this would be as much a workout as the Wii Fit.

We live iin a small town with only a Shopko and guess what..... drum roll please.... we found a Wii Fit last week :cool1: :cool1: :cool1:

It really is just being in the right place at the right time. They weren't on the shelf but my son asked the clerk and they had just got them in the night before and weren't out on the shelves yet. Good luck :wizard: :wizard:

Yes GHIV:WT will be sold in a "band set" pretty much identical to the rockband set of game, guitar, mic, and drumset. Rumored price is $179.99
($10 cheaper the RB)...and the guitar has new features that no prefious guitar has had(a touch pad nech for moding sounds more like a real guitar)

Wii fit is in fact POPULAR...somethign I predictied way back at it's announcment just about a year ago, but somethign that many "gamers" douvted. IN fact Wiifit has sold around 2million in japan at last check and abotu a million in the Us((no clue on the rest of the world) they are selling as fast as they are made...best thing I can say is just keep checking around and don't be afarid to ask(NICELY!) when I worked reatil at toys r us I always loved to see people smile when I brought somethgin out we had just gotten, but not put out yet...ONLY if they we're nice..if they were being jerks I simply said nope sorry we don't have any! ((ok that is enough of a side bar))

anyway just keep looking!! Good luck!
 
I am frustrated. I got Rockband for Wii and even though we love it I am wishing I could get a 2nd guitar. Any news of them coming out with one? I was hoping Nintendo would get one to work between RB and GH, but that looks like a definite no-go with the new GH:WT coming out. Maybe I should've waited til October....

It has nothing to do with Nintendo. Rock Band was created by a group that left the company that makes Guitar Hero. There is no love between the companies and they'll do everything they can to block compatibility.

They will definitely have guitars available by themselves for purchase. It took them a few months do get them out for the other systems and I assume it'll be so with the Wii too. they're really expensive though.

My only suggestion is to find a friend who can come jam with you. I know it sucks.

I LOVE Rock Band, but I think for those of you that already have GH for the Wii, you should really consider waiting for the next GH instead of getting RB. Too bad they didn't get GH WT out faster.

Knowing that, I'm really glad we didn't get Rock Band. I guess I'll just wait for a bigger house and get the next GH.
 
We got GH Aerosmith today. DH is playing now and loves it, but keep in mind he's always been a huge Aerosmith fan. It looks cool to me, but being more of an Aerosmith fan than a gamer, I don't feel qualified to give a proper "gamer report". Between this game and Rockin Roller Coaster, these guys must be sitting on a freaking mountain of money!

One thing I noticed is the narrator on the tutorial sounds like the narrator in the Haunted Mansion. Anyone else agree?

So this new feature will work with the GHIV:WT and if using that guitar while playing GH3 or Aerosmith you just won't use that feature for anything? But the guitar will still work for GH3, right?

We got GH on Tour for the DS and my sons like it alot. I asked to try it several times but they didn't give it up.

Some friends bought RB and because there was so much stuff (drums, guitar, etc in addition to the guitar already from GH) they moved the Wii to another room, so I'm glad we've decided to wait til Oct for GHIV:WT and hopefully have one set of stuff that's all compatible with each other.
 
Oy, now I read this!! DH bought Rock Band at Sam's on Saturday!! They are all having a ball. The mic from HSM Sing It works with Rock Band though!! Sams was selling it for under 160.00!! I hope that is a good price. So..do I return it?? When is GHWT supposed to come out??

We are also awaiting for GH AS to be delivered, I pre-ordered it months ago.

That's a great point!! I've been assuming it will work but I completely forgot about the new features. I still believe the old guitars will be compatible, but I can't answer for sure right now. :(

If you've opened it and played it, I don't think returning it is an option.
GHWT comes out in October. I wouldn't be too upset. RB is awesome and very well supported with new songs and stuff. ANd that is a very good price if you got all the instruments with it. I don't know why you'd want to use the HSM mic and the RB mic since you can't have two singers at one time, but it's good to know if one of the mics bites the dust!

I wouldn't be too upset with the purchase. RB is proven to be totally awesome and while I trust in GH, no one knows how good it will be yet.

But again if you haven't bought RB yet, I would wait until GHWT comes out if you have another GH game.
 
I have to say has anybody played GHA yet? I am a little dissapointed with the song selection and the game play. I thought it woul dbe more like GH3 where you do boss battles but you only get to battle joe perry at the end and then a couple songs and you beat the game. I guess im just a little disapointed. anybody eles played it yet?
