It is that bad. If any of you have ever used movie maker software, where you drag all the clips into the software and then click on the "make easy movie" button where the software does it for you -- that had to have been how this game was made.

It is sooooooo bad. And I hope to finish it today. It's that bad, that I want to finish it.

Stupid nooby question guys.

I'm running out of space on my Wii. But I have this card for the DSi.

Will this work on my Wii?

I'm sure this should work on my Wii but just wanted to make sure. Yeah, it's the label that says Nintendo DSi on it, but it shouldn't matter, right?

Thanks.

Also, is there a separate channel menu I have to use when I play games off of the SD card? It looks ugly. There are so many empty channels left on my Wii menu. What's the point if I can't fill them all up?

Whaddya talking about! Famitsu gave it a 39/40!

Yeah, too bad it's so terrible though. I guess it's not just reviews, it really must be a terrible game.

And to think PS3 fanboys actually thought it was Sony's Halo!

Why'd you have to say that!? Now I feel sad because I thought I was playing a MegTen game this whole time and thought I was Ota-kool!

It is a technical and artistic mess. I have no idea how this game was made by the same people who worked on Golden Eye or Timesplitters.

Simple things like having to press a button several times in order for it to take. Animated NPCs who are, in the game world, 3 feet away from the equipment they are using (but going through the animations). Vehicles that get stuck on things. Freeze ups. Moralistic story replete with great lines as, "You're either a carnivore or you're meat" and "Are you a communist? (when you try to save someone's life). Long, un-skippable cinemas. No discernible way to know if a checkpoint has occurred (and saved).

It just goes on and on and on. Thankfully it's only 7 hours long, and I've on hour 4.

If should work fine on Wii. I can't imagine why it wouldn't.

Insert your SD Card, and click there. It'll take you to your SD Card channels.

Thanks!

But I have so many Wii channels that are empty. How do I manage them wisely? I'm guessing I should download the WiiWare and maybe N64 games on the SD card while the NES and SNES stuff goes on the Wii channel. So that way I won't have so many empty channels to make my screens look so ugly.

I keep the games I play frequently on my main channel, and store the rest on my SD card.

Sounds good. I had no idea N64 games took up so much blocks. Zelda Ocarina of Time is my biggest file!

By the way, I can't believe how amazing Ocarina of Time still is!

I thought it'd feel dated and because I played it so many times, I thought I wouldn't enjoy it anymore. I was wrong!

The game is still so fun! Also, my Wii component cables is making the game look so smooth and clean. I'm amazed at how good and crisp the game looks on my HDTV!

This really is the greatest game ever made!!! And that is NOT just a statement from the King of Hyperbole...it really is true in this case!

Miyamoto is so awesome.

In the end, we are going to have more than 240 stars for you to obtain, and we think it’s going to be challenging for any and all gamers.

OMG!!! Now does he mean 240 different stars or 120 with Mario and 120 with Luigi. I assume its with Luigi as well, maybe Luigi has different missions or something.

Yeah, OoT was a 32MB game on cartridge, and was one of the bigger N64 games. RE2 was the biggest, I believe, coming in at around 64MB. Sadly, it hasn't been released on VC yet.

By the way, one last question.

I just transferred a few games to my SD card. But now on my Wii channel menu at the data management, it has a SD card icon and fills up 263 blocks. It says I can't move or copy it but I can erase it.

What is this?

Should I leave this alone?

Hmm, I have no idea what that could be. I never had that icon in my Channel management menu. I only have the Wii/SD Card tab along the top. Sounds odd.

Back to Haze. I don't know what happened, but the game does get good after about 5 hours. (Too bad it's only 7 hours long). They pull a Halo2 on you in terms of character, and since they did that the game has gotten much, much better.

The only explanation I have is that they must have had two teams working on the game. What a waste.

Still seeling for $42 new on amazon.

I think I got it for $12, which is $11.50 too much.
