rainbow sky   10 #73 Posted September 6, 2008 I have it on good authority that Woolies use game discs as coffee coasters though, a few years back I bought 2 PC games from the Moor one for Christmas, both were scratched to buggery and didn't work.  Well I don't know who told you that because I worked there for 10 years and never once saw anyone USING DISCS AS COASTERS.

rainbow sky   10 #78 Posted September 6, 2008 Does anyone know of anywhere in Sheffield that will have the wii fit in stock tomorrow? Its a long shot I know.  I got mine from Ebay few months ago but I managed to get one in Sheffield so didn't have to pay postage, still paid £90 though.

discodown   11 #79 Posted September 6, 2008 How come the discs were so scratched then? Before I used them? You must be correct then. The only possible way a CD could get scratched or damaged is by someone using it as a coaster. Never mind that were this common practise people would get fired for damaging stock Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
Space   10 #80 Posted September 6, 2008 Then you clearly have no idea what you're talking about  After owning almost every kind of computer since i was a nipper in 1980, and all the different consoles that have ever been released here and Japan, and played thousands of games on them all, clearly I have got an idea.  You don't agree with my original statement, you like the Wii and WiiFit, fair enough. It's what I think about the Wii that matters to me. I like Mario Galaxy, MarioKart, SSX Blur and Zelda on the system, but out of the 30+ games we have on it, that's about it.  It's a great system for casual half hour-players like my OH, but not for the hardcore.  Also, after getting used to the crystal clear High Definition picture the 360 and PS3 send out, the Wii looks positively poor on a big HDTV.  Back on topic: Did you manage to get one MANDI?

discodown   11 #81 Posted September 6, 2008 So you basically want a console that is basically no different to a NES or Sega Master System or Atari 2600 except more powerful with a few bells and whistles on it.  Curious Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
Rich   12 #82 Posted September 6, 2008 The Wii is decent for retro gaming.  I was playing Super Mario World and Zelda 3 on the Virtual Console this morning.  And I still can't get past the 3rd level of the 2nd world on SMW. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

Dizzyblonde   10 #84 Posted September 7, 2008 I love the wii, I loved the gamecube, I have zillions of nectar points and really want to spend them on wii fit. At this rate it will be the easter bunny that delivers it. At least that will mean I can exercise off the easter eggs. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
