The Wii can now if not already be considered the the master of being a mostly all accessories add on console. Sorry if I sound a bit harsh, but for the longest time Nintendo has been able to get away with offering hardware add-on(s) to all of it’s consoles and nickel and dime it’s loyal fanbase. Some good but mostly not needed to have fun on a Nintendo system. Thrustmaster is offering a new peripheral for all of the skateboarding and snowboarding games on and coming soon to the Wii. Hit the break for the presser.

One of my first “ever” 16-Bit console titles I played was Altered Beast for the Sega Genesis. It was in 1989 when the Genesis launched with the bundled title and from the very beginning I was taken a back by the “shitty” but awesome voice audio in the game. From the beginning level your told to “Rise from your grave” to the “POWER UP” voice every time you picked up an energy orb for your transformation upgrades. Altered Beast will always hold a special place in my heart.

Torrence insists that anything over 480(NTSC standard) or 525(PAL standard) lines of resolution is considered HD. We also get into a debate over whether FFXIII is really being dumbed down or not. Torrence takes time to smash PS3center and their claims against SE. Also on this show:

The whole remake thing is getting really cool. TMNT was done very well. I only wish they included the original 2D game with the download. Now Bonk is finally returning to the Xbox 360 and PS3. I can’t even fathom how bad ass it will be playing Bonk again with redefined graphics. Can we get Capcom to give us an HD version of Final Fight? Oh yeah, there’s a new Bomberman coming out too! Here’s the ink from Hudson: Read the rest of this entry »

Scene It has long been a 360 franchise but now WB is taking the game multiplatform. Will Buzz! take the back seat on the PS3 for the new Scene It game? Will the Wii version sell like hotcakes? Only time will tell. Here’s the official ink from Warner Bros. Read the rest of this entry »

On this episode we talk about what Microsoft NEEDS to do with the 360 at this point and that is drop the Elite to $199. It’s a year older than the PS3 and it shouldn’t be the same price. Fans and Bitbaggers get into a huge debate with HHG about his claims that Heavy Rain is destroying the PC game industry. This argument goes on for about 30min. Candid Anthony comes on the show and smashes Hiphopgamer. We also discuss how Take Two is ripping us off by making us pay for the 2K10 Draft Combine making the total cost of 2K10, $65. Lastly we debate on whether or not a game should be completed 100% before it’s reviewed. Also on this show:

This picture is floating around the net and it looks like this Best Buy ad is for next weeks circular . Hmmmm? I wonder if Nintendo is going to keep selling it’s low cost and lack luster online service Wii for the same price of an Xbox 360? All I know is that the Pro system is being phased out so this is probably a last push to get rid of the XBox 360 PRO SKU. So if your in the market head out to your Best Buy next week and pick up the PRO 360 at a steal…!

Peace Out.

On this episode we talk about the impact that the PS3 will make at $299. Will it change the industry? Will they pass Microsoft and Nintendo and become number 1? Who knows, we sure as hell don’t, but there are plenty of opinions being tossed around this episode. Also on the show:

* Does anyone think Sony will come in first this gen? (Torrence)
* Miramasa is a must have Wii title (Torrence)

I haven’t seen a lot of Wii related content on theBitbag and that’s probably due to the fact that there hasn’t really been anything really interesting worth mentioning. I’ll be honest I wasn’t even sure where I should start. Thankfully I have pretty random thought processes and remembered that I am quite the fan of lists. And now I present to you My Most Anticipated Wii Games!
