The Wii doesn't play GameCube games through emulation, but by containing GameCube-based hardware.
Get your fill of sci-fi, science, and mockery of stupid ideas

Gamecube emulation seems to be perfect. I tested this with a friend's memory card, controller and game, and so now I guess I can join the Gamecube party.![]()
Aside from RE4, Celda and Smash, what else is good on Gamecube? I don't like racing or sports.

I have a question about the wireless, but I feel I already know the answer.Xisiqomelir wrote:Wireless setup was very easy, even with my no-SSID-broadcast network (more than I can say for winblows machines).

Is it WPA compatible?
Rogue Squadron II is good. Avoid Rogue Squadron III at all costs though.Xisiqomelir wrote:Miscellany:

That's outdated information.Xisiqomelir wrote:Sorry, don't have a DS.
The USB->Ethernet thing is called a "Wii Ethernet Kit". I have no idea if it is a different product or a repackaging of the DS dongle.
Don't be silly. Brawl isn't coming out till 2007 and Melee costs like $10 used at GameStop these days.DEATH wrote:Agreed on that.General Zod wrote:Metroid Prime 1& 2 is a must have.Xisiqomelir wrote:Miscellany:

Also don't get SSBrother Melee, since SSB: Brawl is coming out for the Wii (Though Melee is ludicrously good and has the replay value of Pacman).
Also I'd reccomend Viewtiful Joe 1+2, very fun if a bit hard.

Same here, actually on the first night I got it while I was playing Wii Sports with friends, I looked in my hand and remembered E3, then looked at the non-gamers next to me swinging their tennis rackets and laughed hysterically a little bit thinking about how this feels exactly like the Wii advertisements with everyone jumping around looking like an idiot.Actually playing the system with the Remote, after all this time since E32K6, seems almost surreal. Knowing and seeing how it works absolutely does not compare to actually playing it. The emotional feeling I got upon realisation on how perfectly everything works was a combination of blissful shock and hilarity.
Eternal Darkness, if you can find it. Launch game that's a horror tale spanning several hundred years and many characters. Full of insanity effects to play with your mind.Xisiqomelir wrote:(Which games should I buy?)Spanky The Dolphin wrote:The Wii doesn't play GameCube games through emulation, but by containing GameCube-based hardware.

I'd agree on Rogue Leader, but Rebel Strike was filled with pointless and horrible 3rd person shooter levels with you (barely) controlling your guy on foot.Vympel wrote:The Rogue Squadron games are a must have. I'd still be playing them, if my Gamecube wasn't busted.
So, so true. Having met people in both lines.Rekkon wrote:xkcdSpanky The Dolphin wrote:On a side note, it was interesting how polite people who arrived late and got turned away were, usually nothing more than a "Oh they are? Okay."
