What are you buying to prepare/tide you over until Brawl?

[EggBomb]

I'm emailing my professors and telling them I'm out of town for a week. So I'm buying time.

As far as actual accessories go I'm going to be picking up 3 more wavebirds for a totally wireless experience.

 

[Uchiha.Sanosuke]

Does anyone know exactly where I can get a Gamecube controller that isn't online? Like Gamestop, Wal-Mart, Best Buy, whatever? I only have two, and one broke so...

 

[Corax The Cold]

so do you actually need a 2 gig sd card to be able to save??

 

[God Link]

I already got A new 32 HD Screen Tv, (early christmas gift, not opened yet) HDMI component cables, 1 new gamcube controller(other analog got messed up) So im set for Brawls Widescreen 480p graphics.

 

[PrettyGoodYear]

Diapers. Anything else I need?

 

[ripman3]

my gf is buying me a new wavebird for xmas, and i'm having my old one sent in from Georgia.

Is it worth it to buy the nicer Wii cables for HDTVs?

 

[Gomolka]

Where can you get 2gb SD cards?

Honestly, I just don't like the feel of wavebirds. They just don't feel comfortable. I like original gcube controllers anyway.

I have MP3:C, SMG, and GH3 to hold me over until Brawl.

I was going to buy one at my local gamestop, but the guy there told me that it really isn't worth it. He said that there are really only a few games for the wii where it would make a difference, but for the rest of the games it really wouldn't do anything.

The multi-purpose HDTV component cables really are only worth it for PS3 and XBOX360 because the Wii just really doesn't have the high quality graphics that require HDTVs to reach its maximum potential.

I have seen myself the difference between the HDTV and normal myself because my friend has the all purpose one that he uses for his PS3, and we really couldn't see a huge difference (this was for Mario Galaxy and Metroid Prime 3 Corruption) . It did seem a bit better quality, and you can get it if you really desire a perfect picture. But really, you can't tell a significant difference.

I'm going to buy a Mr. T rubber duck.

I pitty the fool who doesn't have a Mr. T rubber duck!

 

[secretcode]

Just got my Wii today at a CostCo... so that's pretty much it, sans game.

 

[AtticusFinch]

Well, seeing how a already got two Classic controllers and have interweb connections with wi fi, not much

Maybe some rubber underware, becuase the first time i'll play brawl, I am going to piss my pants! XD

 

[Wight]

what? why would you buy a control like that? its like an xbox controller!

 

[Mama]

I might get that controller if it feels right. I'm also going to buy a few new GC controllers.

I don't think theres anything wrong with buying a new TV for a game. Its a TV after all. Not like you'd use it just for the game and nothing else.

 

[FFBlackmage456]

I'll plan on getting the 2 GB SD Card, the game itself, tons of snacks, and I was hoping to get 3 wireless gamecube controllers but there expensive so i might just stick to wired ones.

 

[Desruprot]

I have 4 GC COntrollers so I am set, all I need is a Wii...lol (I'll have it by May)

 

[matthewdw94*]

so do you actually need a 2 gig sd card to be able to save??

no, but im a freak for designing stages, plus ill be taking vids and pics, but after christmas there so much less expensive.

 

[miller483]

Call of Duty 4:MW, The Orange Box, and Super Mario Galaxy to tide me until February.

 

[God Link]

I bought a $600.00+ 32" LCD HDTV with HDMI Cables just for Super Smash Bros. Brawl. Good brand and I got a good deal for it. Now I can play Brawl in its finest.

 

[Demon Kirby]

SD card and wi-fi adapter.

 

[Spork-Ninja-Draken]

Nothing for a while... Q3 and all.

~Sigh~

I'm heavily contemplating acquiring an American Wii however.

So I can play the game the same time as you guys.

No idea where to get one at a fair price which isn't something stupid like $500 though. XD

and then I'd need to find some smashers near me and dig up my Second best controller due to the fact my best controller is in need of a new joystick...

SO yes I'm getting an American Wii in preparation for Brawl.

(rambles onward into the sunset)

 

[TheGlitchMaster]

sd card and i hope my mom gets me a router.....

Seriously, what's up with people saying that they're gonna defecate/urinate in their pants the first time they play Brawl? I don't games will get THAT epic until about 30 years from now.

Personally... I have no idea and I'm finding it ever so slightly disturbing.

 

[Kasek]

I'm buying two new Gamecube controllers. I have four, but two of them are near-broken (I have button-mashers in my family). Also, I need an SD card- don't have one yet, and I'm gonna go NUTS with the stage creator, pics, and videos.

 

[smash_fo_life]

i need a wii

 

[FireWater]

Buying a classic controller, I want to experiment with all of the different control methods (save the wiimote only one)

I honestly think the wiimote and nunchuck combination will be the best for me personally. but we'll just wait and see.
I'm also debating whether or not to get the Nintendo LAN connector for my Wii. I'm curious to see if there would be a noticable latency difference between the Wi Fi and the hardline. Does anyone have the LAN connector could maybe tell me their experiences?

 

[-Wolfy-]

I have a wireless router now, but when I had the usb wi-fi adapter it worked jsut fine. i have 4 star connections every match in strikers, so i have no problem with wireless, i am getting a new tv for my poolhouse (converted a 3 car garage into a 2 car garage with an open wall to the pool, couch, fridge, tv, played smash and such there all summer) and i'm finally getting a fourth wii mote + nunchuk setup, i've already got 2 classics.

 

[psyniac_123]

Me and my girlfriend are going to Gamestation an hour or few before it opens and rushing in when they do. I'm grabbing Brawl and she's getting herself a Classic Controller as quick as we can; so we can be in, out and home asap.

I'm comtemplating organising my time and grabbing a bus from the Train Station to my house, which is only a 15 minute walk tops; if I can. Just to make it even faster.

 

[Manny G.]

Just the GAME I have all the Gamecube controllers i need to jump in the game,play online and automatically own everybody on the screen considering they keep foxes old moves.
And hopefully Marth

I'm trying to get my gamestop to let me host a melee tournament as we wait, ours is doing a midnight release and i have it reserved so im gonig to that, and a tourney that we time to end around midnight would be sick.

 

[Manny G.]

I can get it without reserving it. NO ONE LIVES AROUND HERE(that likes smash)

 

[Sandwich]

That's easy. A Wii.

 

[-Wolfy-]

Ohio is super sectionalized. Theres cleveland, cincinatti, and then colombus, and then the rest are little pockets, like in my area there are about 60 smashers, i host a series of tournaments so ive got a good feel for the area, and then its like an hour drive to the next little pocket. except vidjo, but ive never played with vidjo. a guy can dream though, right?

 

[Manny G.]

That's easy. A Wii.

?????????????????????

 

[studgangsta]

I was thinking doing what samurai panda once said, skipping school and ordering fast food and playing it all day!!!!! man thats a fantastic idea, I just hope I dont have anything important due or anything!!!

 

[KrystalRules]
