[quote name='Syk3']By the way, White, the EB I was at had the policy that they issued Wiis based on order in line for preorders. So the first person would get a call when the first Wii was in, and so on. If you didn't preorder one at this store, you won't be able to buy one at launch if the preorder numbers exceed the console quantity.[/quote] [COLOR=DimGray][FONT=Tahoma]Oh I know. But I'm sure they'll have more than 10 consoles. Even if they have just one extra, it'll be enough since my brother is first in line. And if not I'm sure the Best Buy next door will have some. :) I have to admit, though, I'm still nervous. Not having a pre-order doesn't guarantee I will get one so I'm a little bit anxious. [b]EDIT:[/b] Also, there are three new Wii Experience videos at Wii.com.[/FONT][/COLOR]

[COLOR=DimGray][FONT=Tahoma]Hey, valiantsword16. I think it's awesome that you've posted in Play It, but you need to read the rules first, bud! ;) The [url=http://www.otakuboards.com/showthread.php?t=55113]Play It Rules[/url] explain that discussion threads such as these should just be left in their respected official threads (which you'll find in the [url=http://www.otakuboards.com/showthread.php?t=46746]Thread Directory[/url]). Also, had this thread been created correctly it would've been closed anyway because of your post quality. "I choose Wii." will [i]not[/i] generate [i]any[/i] discussion. Try being more specific about it. Why do you choose the Wii? What's wrong with the PS3? It's for those two reasons that I've decided to close the thread. [B]Thread Locked.[/B][/FONT][/COLOR]

[COLOR=DimGray][FONT=Tahoma]Well, I didn't get to pre-order my Wii. There were people sleeping overnight from 3AM so even if I had been there at 7 in the morning like I initially planned I wouldn't have made it. But it doesn't matter. My brother is a security guard at a mall that has an EB in it and he gets off work an hour before the mall opens so he can just wait infront of EB on November 19th. :p[/FONT][/COLOR]

[COLOR=DimGray][FONT=Tahoma]Well, looks like the round is over. Retribution and Boo have failed to submit their pieces in on time (and even a few days after the deadline) so that makes Delta and Kitty the winners! Congratulations to you two and thank you for actually caring about the contest. :)[/FONT][/COLOR]

[quote name='DeadSeraphim][size=1][color=indigo][font=arial][spoiler]Peter is a power absorber, like Rogue without the kick in the chest. Wikipedia tells all, with references, kids.[/spoiler][/font][/color'][/size][/quote] [COLOR=DimGray][FONT=Tahoma]After the fourth (and third) episode, that's obvious.[/FONT][/COLOR]

[COLOR=DimGray][FONT=Tahoma][CENTER][B][SIZE=4]Oh, snap![/SIZE][/B][/CENTER] Each episode just keeps getting better and better. Come on, [spoiler]the part where Hiro and Ando decide to use Hiro's powers was just hillarious. And of course, the ending was, as always amazing. Hiro from the future (with a Katana)?[/spoiler] Hell yeah![/FONT][/COLOR]

[quote name='The Dark Prince']some of these new pokemon evolutions are cool but some I feel they could have done better and I like how they also put alot more legendary pokemon into the game[/quote] [COLOR=DimGray][FONT=Tahoma]Hey, The Dark Prince. You've been warned once before so please listen up. You're post quality is seriously lacking at the moment so I urge you to read the [url=http://www.otakuboards.com/rules.php?]OtakuBoards Rules[/url] and the [url=http://www.otakuboards.com/showthread.php?t=55113]Play It[/url] rules before posting again.[/FONT][/COLOR]

[COLOR=DimGray][FONT=Tahoma]I actually have to wait until the 16th before I can pre-order mine since I live in Canada. No making out for me. :([/FONT][/COLOR]

[COLOR=DimGray][FONT=Tahoma]Hey, Nintendogrl. If you had read the [url=http://www.otakuboards.com/showthread.php?t=55113]Rules[/url] you would have seen that only 2 stickies above them there is a thread dedicated to this sort of thing (click [url=http://www.otakuboards.com/showthread.php?t=55113]here[/url]). It's pretty simple. You just go there and post your friend codes and one of the moderators will add it to the list. [B]Thread Locked[/B].[/FONT][/COLOR]

[COLOR=DimGray][FONT=Tahoma]Yo! The new Raticate/Furret/Linoone Pokemon kicks butt! As a stereotypical Canadian, I just adore Beavers and Biidaru is definitely a rocking beaver. As for other Pokemon that have won my heart, [url=http://www.serebii.net/pokedex-dp/409.shtml]Ramuparudo[/url] is awesome, [url=http://www.serebii.net/pokedex-dp/425.shtml]Fuwante[/url] is just hillarious, [url=http://www.serebii.net/pokedex-dp/430.shtml]Donkarasu[/url] just yells kick***, [url=http://www.serebii.net/pokedex-dp/450.shtml]Kabarudon[/url] seems like another Gyrados thing (weak first stage), [url=http://www.serebii.net/pokedex-dp/460.shtml]Yukinooh[/url] is a must have for all snow lovers, [url=http://www.serebii.net/pokedex-dp/473.shtml]Manmuu[/url] reminds me a lot of the first Black Power Ranger (Mastadon!) and [url=http://www.serebii.net/pokedex-dp/477.shtml]Yonuwaaru[/url] is a great improvement on Dusclops (I loved Duskull but not Dusclops). Others worth mentioning? [url=http://www.serebii.net/pokedex-dp/476.shtml]Dainoosu[/url] looks like Mr. Potatoe Head and Porygon mixed and [url=http://www.serebii.net/pokedex-dp/478.shtml]Yukimenoko[/url] looks like a slutty Togetic. They also seem to have quite a bit of legendary Pokemon. I'm quite impressed with this new Pokedex after such a let down with Ruby/Sapphire.[/FONT][/COLOR]

[COLOR=DimGray][FONT=Tahoma]Whoa! That monkey is so [i]hideous[/i]! I'm glad I wasn't looking forward to the fire type because I would have been disappointed. The water and grass ones are awesome, though. Did anyone notice how the second Grass evolution looks a lot like Spike from Land Before Time? :whoops:[/FONT][/COLOR]

[quote name='bunnielove1223']The last game I bought was Kingdom Hearts 2. I'm not supposed to buy anymore games now until after Christmas :D[/quote] [COLOR=DimGray][FONT=Tahoma]Hey, bunnielove1223, do you think you could put a little more effort into your posts? Why did you buy KHII? Was it good? What's it about? Did you almost buy a different game? Thanks, White[/FONT][/COLOR]

[COLOR=DimGray][FONT=Tahoma][quote name='Charles']I swear to God, I hope no one says they drink Japanese sake.[/quote]My friend bought Sake the other week or so [I]just[/I] because it was [B]Sake[/B]. I have to admit the bottle looks cool, lol. He still uses it for water and such, haha. I don't really drink myself, but that's not to say I haven't. In my experience, Carona is disgusting. But what I find great is Tequila. It's got a very.. snappy taste.[/FONT][/COLOR]

[quote name='BKstyles][font=tahoma']It's too bad White feels i deserved to lose because i used a technique in writing that indicates gaps and silences between words and also indicates sentences that leave off without obvious continuity where alluded to or begin continuing off of another sentence.[/font][/quote] [COLOR=DimGray][FONT=Tahoma]I never said that was [i]why[/i] you lost. It was just one reason. Also, it's not a technique if you abuse it. There were so many times where it wasn't really needed.[/FONT][/COLOR]

All you have to do is take the theme and, following the guidelines, make some prettyful artwork. :) The winning team will be decided by the OB Community. The theme for this round is [b]Lost at Sea[/b]. Basically the first two members of each team will do the left side of the piece and then the other two members will do the right side.

[COLOR=DimGray][FONT=Tahoma]Wow, that was entertaining to read. XD Well, after what seemed like a lifetime of thinking it over (sorry about that! >_

[quote name='BKstyles][font=tahoma']BTW i was wondering the other day...everytime you shoot one of those lizard salamander things...and approach it you end up picking it up. Is collecting those things worth anything...or do they have no significance what so ever? I never understood why i'd go around shooting as many as i could find...seeing as how nothing really came out of it.[/font][/quote] [spoiler][font=tahoma]Everytime you kill a black lizard with white tails and pick up the tail (they can be killed with your sword, bow and horse) your energy circle goes up a little bit (I got mine to go off the bottom of the screen). You can also increase your health bar the same way, just not with white lizard tails. Instead, you have to shoot fruit down from picked out trees and eat the fruit. The fruit trees are fairly hard to find, I didn't really bother with them. But the lizards are everywhere, it's just a matter of finding the ones with white tails.[/font][/spoiler]

[COLOR=DimGray][FONT=Tahoma]Hey, sorry the next round is taking so long. I've been really swamped in homework and field trips and all that. I'm also thinking of ways to improve the round itself so hang tight. I'll probably put it up on Friday.[/FONT][/COLOR]

[COLOR=DimGray][FONT=Tahoma]Heya, only1specialed! It seems as though you haven't read the [url=http://www.otakuboards.com/showthread.php?t=55113][u]Play It Rules[/u][/url] yet.

[COLOR=DimGray][FONT=Tahoma][QUOTE=Papa Smurf]New episode just aired earlier tonight. I'm having fun. Who else is? [spoiler]That trunk was insane[/spoiler]. I like the cop's character. Very oafish. I am looking forward to where the CIA/FBI characters go...they were such bitches.[/QUOTE] It was so good. It really lived up to the first episode (and at the beginning, I was afraid that it wouldn't). I've gotta say that while [spoiler]the trunk/map thing and the cop thing was cool, nothing beats the ending with Hiro and the explosion.[/spoiler] Hah! You know what's funny? Earlier in the episode the painter says "[spoiler]It's like Hiroshima![/spoiler]" Get it? [spoiler][b]Hiro[/b]shima[/spoiler]? Maybe it's just a coincidence.[/FONT][/COLOR]

[COLOR=DimGray][FONT=Tahoma][quote name='Papa Smurf']The only Zelda on Wii in my mind is the Zelda game made specifically for Wii.[/quote] My thoughts aswell. And that's basically what I'm going to say in reply to Ikillion. [quote name='Ikillion']Why do I have the odd feeling that this game will be soooo much easier to play on the gamecube since the people who got it on the Wii will either have a hard time to try to move link. Or they are going to be on a very easy boss but because of the control they shall be stuck there?[/quote] Absolutely not. The only difference in controls with the Wii version is instead of pressing a button to slash your sword, you have to flick your wrist a tiny bit. You still have an analog stick to move with so I don't know how you figure it'll be harder to move Link around. If anything it'll be easier since instead of moving the camera with another analog stick you've got the Wii Cursor which is much faster.[/FONT][/COLOR]

[quote name='Charles']A month is not that long of a wait when the alternative is dropping 250 bones on a new system with nothing else worth playing on it at launch.[/quote] [COLOR=DimGray][FONT=Tahoma]True, but the way she said it made it seem like she wanted it immediately, no matter the cost. I guess I pinned her as a major zelda fan (like someone else on the staff *cough*) who would get the Wii just to play it a month earlier. Though, I guess if that were the case she might get the GCN version because of the right-hand thing. Who knows? Anyways, I was looking at some screenshots the other day and the graphics actually look very well done (for a Wii game). There was one picture that really got me... *finds it* [url=http://www.zelda.com/universe/_img/game/legendzelda/set3/ss12.jpg][b]Here.[/b][/url][/FONT][/COLOR]

[quote name='indifference][COLOR=DeepSkyBlue']I will be getting the GameCube version for the simple reason that I don't plan on buying the Wii immediately and I'm too impatient to wait for Twilight Princess.[/COLOR][/quote] [COLOR=DimGray][FONT=Tahoma]The Wii version comes out November 19th (the same day as the Wii) and the GCN Version is set for December 11th. So, if you're too impatient to wait for the game I would recommend getting the Wii/Wii Version. :p[/FONT][/COLOR]
