whats everyone higest score for bowling training? I can only get 490.

The 91 pin 1? I think mine's in the 530's.

yeah that one, damn you, thats high, I can't seem to beat the 3rd training stage either.

My highest is 499 I think. My wife got in the 640s :Q That was with the trick to get the 91 pin strike (which is pretty freaking hard in and of itself). She got in the 620s I think without the trick.

My wife is a baller. A bowling... baller.

I just got the first 4 as strikes... and really high, but not a strike on the rest of them.

It's seriously challenging and has huge replay value.

Definitely has me hooked on it more than Zelda.

And like I posted before its seriously ridiculously hard and unforgiving yet that is what makes it so much fun!

:thumbsup: :thumbsup:

I love trauma center. The controls are perfect...and so comfy!

Did you do the mitral valve replacement surgery on the little girl? Jesus that was hard!!! I had to shock the poor girl 7 times with the defibrillator! Still managed a B for the surgery tho hehe

I'm in wiiithdrawal actually,

had to leave the wii at home so I wouldn't be tempted during finals week : (

and I let my mom play it a bit : P (she's a pediatrition in infectious diseases)

so not very far.

p.s.

buy.com has $20 dollars off purchase of 50 or more with google checkout. Had a filler item of 3-4 dollar movie (cheapest I could find on a filler-item page that worked with google checkout) + shipping came out to 39 something for rayman + movie.

They don't have a *great* selection of games, but decent.

Completed the 2nd dungeon of Zelda last night I currently have 6 hearts, and 2 pieces of my 7th heart. Just bought the Hawkeye device ($180), and had to go back in to the dungeon to get more $$ so I could buy the Shield of Hyrule ($200).

Tonight, I plan to work through the next Twilight area

No, no, it's the season of giving, so you should give your Wii to Mii!

i'm in the 1st dungeon of Zelda. So far my only complaint is the camera. It can be a pain in the ass to get it facing where you want sometimes, especially if an enemy is coming after you.

nice find! But it seems like everything is sold out - at least the games i want anyway.

does anyone already have rayman? what kind of multiplayer does it have? is the MP fun?

Interesting, I don't have any candles lying around, but can someone try this?

This is very cool info. I'm trying it w/ 2 candles tonight!!!

Been reading up on and watching vids of the lanyard breaking on the wireless controller and smashing into LCD screens. Hilarious, seeiing someones controller fly out of their hands and destroying an expensive TV. Gotta change my lanyard to something stronger!

My TV only cost $220 (Costco FTW!), but I think I'll take a strand out of some paracord and add a loop. I'll leave a bit more slack than the wrist strap cord, just to see if the wrist strap ever does break (not likely since it has only slipped out of my hand once).

 

[Riverhound777]

I haven't had any issues with the remote slipping. Though one of my remotes has a ding on the end of it. Of course no one in my house seems to know how it got there... seems to work fine though.

Perhaps not swinging to controller like a jackass could remedy this situation.

I concur. I've been playing a TON of bowling and have not come even close to the thing slipping out of my hands.

little kids probably wont know any better then to swing as hard as they can. bowling is not a good example, try baseball or boxing.

woot! my wii is now online and updating!
