In the grand scheme of things I don't think it's terribly important, though.

FMV sucks, but this isn't a real issue. You have to swap Blue Dragon once at the half-way point...big deal -- I swapped it out personally about 12 times to play other games before I switched to disc 2.Originally posted by asleepathewheel
Blue Dragon requires 2 dvds, Lost Odyssey will require 4.
I'm not quite sure what "something cool unlikely to be realized" means to game designers, but I think not having to swap out dvds is at least "nice" for the user."The issue is there are still many people out there that use religion as a crutch for bigotry and hate. Like Ben."

So are they all unloading them on Ebay? What does a used Wii go for these days?Originally posted by Asher
A huge portion of people who have the Wii grow disenchanted with it over time when the limitations that were obvious to me at the beginning become more obvious to more people."A person cannot approach the divine by reaching beyond the human.

Did tickle me elmo remain hot for 12 months?Originally posted by Asher
The reason the Wii's sales are so high is simple: the tickle-me-elmo "hot item" effect."A person cannot approach the divine by reaching beyond the human. To become human, is what this individual person, has been created for.” Martin BuberComment

Uh. What?Originally posted by lord of the mark
A toy gun isn't a game.
So are they all unloading them on Ebay? What does a used Wii go for these days?
No, most people use them to collect dust. That's what I use mine for, and it's really good at it with the white finish.
And they go for below market value..."The issue is there are still many people out there that use religion as a crutch for bigotry and hate. Like Ben."

Surely you mean they go for less than the cost of a new one, not less than market value.Originally posted by Asher

I'm discussing the market value for the new one, quite obviously. But thank you for the semantic argument, it was missed in your absence."The issue is there are still many people out there that use religion as a crutch for bigotry and hate. Like Ben."

And here I thought used things mostly did go for less than the new, unused ones. Go figure, good I have Asher to tell me the opposite.Do not fear, for I am with you; Do not anxiously look about you, for I am your God.-Isaiah 41:10

You ditch the Wii for being sold for less than the price of a new when in a used state. I call that a weak argument.
