How do you use your Wii?

Post by Rototiller »

SO far, it seems that a lot of people have a wii. What I want to know is what do you use it for? Like, using it as a gamecube, a virtual conslol, whatever.

ANother question: how do you swing( :P) your wii controller? this is asking how you move. Do you act like a wacked up four year old, or just use gradual movements.
what sig? i don't see anything...

Bowling is a bit unrealistic.. Although you have to do the actions, it's nothing like how I really bowl.

Generally, I use half arsed movements because I dont want to end up breaking something.

I like bowling the best out of all of the games on wii sports personally, It's not how I really bowl either.

I over-exaggerate everything. It makes me feel like I'm in the game and my friends get a kick out of it. :)

You don't need to exaggerate, of course, but it makes it so much more fun :D.
Without games my life would have no meaning.
Well, I guess it would, but it would be a lot less fun!!!!!!!

Lol, I'm positive I'll bowl differently on Wii when I get one,
my friends call me braveheart when I bowl. Know why? Imagine thousands of men running to battle, some drunk, screaming with swords above their heads. Thats about how I bowl.

i played a wii for a while, and i found that even though it says "swing like a golf club" or "act like you are bowling!", it still works if you just wave the thing in the general direction of the screen.

my playing style is trying to get away with moving as little as possible. and doing it wrong on purpose to see what happens.

now that we are talking about it anyways... does anyone know if wii games support NOT using the stupid waving around stuff? like could i just go play wii twilight princess with a gamecube controller?
