- kylesellers, on 10/12/2007, -2/+20Can it really be the best "anything to do with the Wii" ever, when the system's only been out 2 months and a day?
This is obviously only the" Best Video of Flash Games on the Wii *YET*" - Sun.Surfin, on 10/12/2007, -3/+20These aren't being played on the Wii. He's recording it off of his computer. On the Wii, you would have a huge hand in the way of some of those awesome flash games like Sniper, making it not nearly as fun. You also have a big bar at the bottom to navigate between sites with, once more not shown here. The current release of the browser isn't all it's hyped up to be. Those two things alone take away from a lot of the experience, unfortunately.
- ahawks, on 10/12/2007, -2/+16Buried simply for the "EVER!" in the title.
- vassili151, on 10/12/2007, -0/+13Can we all just stop using the word "EVER" on digg please.
- retral, on 10/12/2007, -0/+5More like the only video of flash games on the wii..
- Master444, on 10/12/2007, -2/+7I agree- best flash-game-on-the-wii-video ever. Then again, there isn't much competition. Oh well, I digg it.
- pbaehr, on 10/12/2007, -0/+4I'm really hoping that the mouse cursor becomes skinable in the final version. It definitely detracts from a lot of flash games that would be a blast otherwise. It would also be nice if the browser reported the different buttons as key presses. Hopefully they're on top of that. While I'm wishing, it would be absolute bliss if it reported accelerometer data.
- gamebittk, on 10/12/2007, -5/+9Yea - I've noticed that, but most games DO display the cursor -- maybe you just weren't paying attention.
- supervaluemenu, on 10/12/2007, -0/+4Apollo 440 - Ain't Talkin' 'Bout Dub
From their album Electro Glide in Blue. And yes, they ripped the guitar riff from Van Halen's "Ain't Talkin' 'Bout Love". - staticdrifter, on 10/12/2007, -0/+4I played some of those games and yes the sniper games is really lame with the big hand in the way.
- inactive, on 10/12/2007, -1/+5there is a huge difference between "(dissenting opinion)...***** you, digg me down *****" and "I'm going to get dugg down but...(dissenting opinion)"
- kylesellers, on 10/12/2007, -1/+5Ever does not pertain only to past occurences. From dictionary.com
ev·er
adverb
1. at all times; always
2. continuously
3. at any time
4. in any possible case; by any chance; at all (often used to intensify or emphasize a phrase or an emotional reaction as surprise or impatience)
Not true, there can be a greatest NES game ever, the greatest medival architecture ever, the most valuable stamp ever (since it's reasonable to believe that nothing greater shall follow). This is just Digg sensationalism at its worst. - wastern, on 10/12/2007, -2/+5well, "ever" would imply the best in the last 2 months. If something better comes out then that new one will be the best ever if its better.
Something is the best until something better comes out. That goes for everything, regardless of how long its been available
Although, I'd be more interested in the best flash game for the Wii ever, rather then a video about them advertising for a website that most people with a Wii and Opera installed already know about - markmandue, on 10/12/2007, -0/+3anyone know the name of the song playing in the background.
super nice old school sound going on there. - davekilljoy, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2It was all recorded on PC to get the pest Quality, but has a little custom mouse cursor for effect. =D
- gregcotten, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2How did he get the hand pointer off of "Tactical Assasin"? I hate that thing.
- vhold, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2When I play any Flash on the Wii I get regular stutters every minute or so, and button clicks often don't register. Anybody else have these problems?
- jbravo29, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2Why couldn't the PSP have adopted the Opera browser, the on-line flash games suck #@$@!!!!!!!! Now that I'm a Wii owner I've officially trashed my PSP. Death to Sony and LONG LIVE NINTENDO!!!!
- civperc, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2Hot fire!
- Sun.Surfin, on 10/12/2007, -2/+4No, I was definitely paying attention... is it not possible the video maker set their own cursor to the Wii's and so games that use the computer's default showed it and ones that overrides it did not?
- iamorlando, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1Linerider on the wii would be awesome, how come they don't have it?
- Jemulov, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1Thanks for the info Darkcyde I'll keep that in mind when I next restructure my sentences in my posts.
Boy do I feel dumb....
:( - Blah_Blah_Blah, on 10/12/2007, -5/+6EVER?
- adezero, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1ever!!!
- armbar, on 10/12/2007, -5/+6Yeah, why does everybody always spell "EVAR" wrong? Go back to second grade.
- Jimmyinnz, on 10/12/2007, -1/+2Buried for EVER
- nanboya, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1Agreed... it's positively scary to see people actually wondering what "that guitar riff" is from...
from the comments on youtube:
mattucd (1 hour ago)
What song is that guitar riff from? - davekilljoy, on 10/12/2007, -1/+2Ya hes a buddy of my roomies, he made this game for a contest and then decided to give it to us, hes a good kid, many thanks for sure. =)
- Duelist, on 10/12/2007, -2/+3Hey, I know the dude who made that "Ketsueski" game on that trailer. He goes to my university.
- Fatalx, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1WiiCade is love. ;D
Can't wait for WiiCade's 2.0 release and crazy influx of exclusive games... Yeah, I'm a forumer.
Nice video - Blooner did a great job on it. - everfalling, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1yeah, you can. thy are just flash games, but they're flash games that can make good use of the wiimote cursor
- everfalling, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1anyone else having problems with this site on the wii? Half the games are in a box at the top of the screen that's 1/4th the size of the screen, so you gotta zoom in to see anything, OR the flash game plays in its normal size, but the 1/4th screen stays there, effectively cutting off the bottom and sides of the game.
- willi, on 10/12/2007, -2/+2Try yatsha.com They seem are far better. The games there are revised to use with the wiimote.
Someone uploaded a video too.
http://www.dailymotion.com/wiimagic/video/x104ue_yatsha-games-for-wii-opera - danc4498, on 10/12/2007, -4/+4Using your same logic, nothing can EVER be best anything EVER, because the future has yet to happen
- ozziegt, on 10/12/2007, -1/+1WTF? I can play these on my pc? Why are these any different from other flash games? And the games suck anyway...
- BlackCow, on 10/12/2007, -1/+1Shoot em up games would be fun on the Wii, some xaio xaio.
- Fatalx, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0o_o This message messed up.
- MeekoTheRaccoon, on 10/12/2007, -1/+1Good games.
Great presentation.
These people, like Nintendo know that a game is something you PLAY, not something you WATCH. - pawz, on 10/12/2007, -1/+1You've GOT to be kidding me. These games are CRAP !
First of all, they're not even REMOTELY designed for the Wii - they include instructions like "press the left mouse button".
Furthermore, I tried two and both stopped responding to button presses after a few seconds, leaving me to die horribly due to whatever bug caused it.
The games at yatsha.com by comparison are simply AWESOME, 100% designed for the Wii, far superior graphically, and much more fun !
Best games EVER ? No sirree, you clearly haven't looked. - Nitro187, on 10/12/2007, -1/+1Still doesn't beat playing with the digital pad on the wiimote with flash games:
http://www.digg.com/programming/Wii_Flash_Tennis_game_Uses_buttons - Audy592, on 10/12/2007, -1/+0ABS has some really good ones too: http://www.albinoblacksheep.com/games/wii/
- inactive, on 10/12/2007, -4/+3http://wiifii.net (um, for some reason digg isn't parsing my url correctly, just copypaste to addressbar)
it doesnt have the wide game selection of wiicade, but the interface is much cleaner, even if it is just a ripoff of the wii menu :-P - inactive, on 10/12/2007, -6/+4Stupid as hell
Are people really so lazy that they can't go to www.onemorelevel.com or newgrounds or even armorgames.com to get these ***** flash titles? - gamebittk, on 10/12/2007, -5/+2Maybe, but I doubt it. Maybe just some games were recorded with the Wii, and the rest on the PC.
- Jemulov, on 10/12/2007, -10/+3It's nice to see more possibilities for the wii, but I've played a good majority of these flash games on the internet and thought they were terrible.
@markmandue: The song is a remix and remake of the Van Halen song, Ain't Talkin' Bout Love. ***** ***** rip-off of a good song.
P.S. *****, Digg me down asshats, if you can't take the truth!
Buried. - gamebittk, on 10/12/2007, -8/+1Wow. This made it to Wired and GoNintendo already!
