If Nintendo decides to develop a full game around Wii Golf and release it for $50, it will be day 1ed. Pls, Nintendo, you want my $50.

Tecmo is already on it, and it's coming soon:

Are the Wii sports games like bowling and golf able to be played multiplayer with one Wiimote, or do the bastards force you to buy more, even though they are turn-based games?

Bowling and Golf you can swap the controller, good move Nintendo.

I just bought Raving Rabbids on a whim and man is it fucking awesome.

The bunnies are hilarious and the disco game alone is keeping me glued to the screen.

This will hold me over until Wario Ware hits.

How? Just selecting the 4 player option?

When you select multiplayer on Golf and Bowling a screen pops up if you only have one wiimote saying that all players will use the same wiimote. The other Wii Sports games just say that you need to plug in another wiimote. You can also do the training section multiplayer will only one wiimote.

I've got a question about the VC -- if we start going crazy downloading all our favorite games on the system, which is limited to 2000+ blocks; how would we go about getting additional space?

They have USB ports on the back of the system, which right now don't do anything but they can use a firmware upgrade to enable external hard drive support or use a firmware upgrade to let you transfer things to an SD card. Hopefully one of those 2 things will happen I'm going to guess they haven't given it much thought yet seeing as how there really aren't that many VC games out right now.


What I'm really hoping for is downloadable demos much like MS has done on Xbox live. I think it would be fucking awesome if all the playable demos at E3, or what ever it's new name is going to be, where available for download by all 3 of the main manufacturers.

The official VC FAQ's response to the space question:

delete games.

I'll have to go home and check it out. I have two Wii Remotes. I have a third but keeping it sealed for eBay auction or possible return. So come Thanksgiving, I would like to play 4 players in bowling using two controllers. Can you use two controllers for 4 players or only 1 controller for all 4?

IDK, I only have one wiimote, impossible to find extras.

I think I might pick up another game tonite to bring home for Thanksgiving, Monkeyball or Raving Rabbids, any impressions from people who have played either?
