I have a Wiimote!!!
« on: August 08, 2006, 08:01:07 PM »
A long time ago, I saw this cool mouse at a best buy store. It looks like a mix between a remote control and a regular mouse. Anyway, it has some cool technology called 'air nav' which means its usable in the air, as well as on a desk, so basically it has a motion sensor like the wiimote does.

One day, I saw the mouse on sale, and after thinking about it, I bought it.

It has two programable buttons, plus you can program 'swipes' into it, so if you can run a command by simply swiping it up or down or something.


I'd imagine that the wiimote will work basically the same way as my mouse does.

Anyway, I have to say its pretty cool. It works great in most games, but some games its better not to use it.

I'm still a Ps3 fan, but if the wiimote works as good as my mouse, then I think it may actually be worth getting :p

Well that's super. I still find myself having to explain to people "You don't HAVE to use the Wiimote, you can use your old Gamecube controllers if you want!"

But hearing something positive about the damned thing is a nice change. :p

Yeah, I know you don't have to use it, but originally I thought it was some stupid peice of crap that would hardly work in most games. But now that I've used somethign simular, I think it'll be a cool add-on for most games. :p

Could it be? Could DB become a Nintendo fan? Will I stop talking like this? Tune in next whenever for an all new Charas: The console wars!

PS: Wii win. :p

Will DB become a nintendo wii fan? You'll just have to wait and see.

Hmm, then again, now that I do have a motion sensor controller that I can use in computer games, maybe I won't have any desire to buy a system with such technology...

Lol, I wasn't referring to you. I mean like everyone else. Seriously, if you look in all those Wii threads, sometimes I say it twice.

Theres nothing wrong with liking both systems, but nintendo really let me down in the past and the playstation has not.
