Wal-Mart is trying to make you think you’re getting a bargain for that Wii + Wii Fit bundle.

The truth is that it’s cheaper to both separately.
Wii = $250
Wii Fit = $90

That’s $340 plus tax, which is about $370

EDIT:
half the games you listed seem like a waste of money. most of them are cheaply-made bad games made just to take advantage of people who are new to video games (thanks to the Wii being so popular) and don’t know any better.

Is this true about Miyamoto’s new Zelda Game?

Filed in archery accessories 10 Comments

Shigeru Miyamoto has confirmed a new Legend of Zelda title is in development for the Wii.

"To be honest with you, I really wanted to announce a Zelda game for Wii at this E3. But rather than think about something to bring you to show you, we really wanted to focus on actual game development," he said, speaking during a behind-closed-doors presentation.

"However I didn’t want to come empty handed, so I did bring the next illustration for the next Zelda title." At this point an oil painting-style image of Link appeared on a big screen. It featured a pale blue figure wearing a helmet in the foreground and the Legend of Zelda logo at the bottom.

"This illustration does contain elements that are central to the storyline, and I hope it does prove to you we are quite far into the development of the title," Miyamoto said.

"I would like to say we hope to bring it to you next year. It may take a little longer."

Miyamoto went on to reveal the game is likely to work with Nintendo’s latest Wii accessory. "We’d like to make it compatible with Wii MotionPlus," he confirmed. "It’s quite possible it will be playable only with Wii MotionPlus. The potential for it becoming MotionPlus-only depends of course on how well Wii Sports Resort sells.

"Maybe you can think of Zelda while you’re playing with the swordfighting and archery in Wii Sports Resort," Miyamoto added. "But some people think of Zelda as more of an RPG with simpler controls, so trying to think of a way to keep everyone happy is going to occupy me."

A Q&A session ensued, during which Miyamoto discussed controlling robots with your brain and gay men using their minds to give birth to a brand new pokemon, an idea his wife helped him come up with. Not even kidding

www.imdb.com/boards

are you asking if Miyamoto was telling the truth or lying about the new zelda game? well…..i am guessing he was telling the truth and that he is making a new zelda game. But he could have just said that to buy himself some time lol. I mean who knows, maybe he doesn’t have any plans for a zelda and is trying to buy some time (a year or more) so he can actually start one. I think it’s stupid they made no zelda for the wii. I also hope he was not lying and is really going to make one. But as he said in his speech a zelda is in the making so not all hope is lost. And at the same time Super mario galaxy 2 and New super mario bros wii was a good save, and again gained him some time, but hope fully he will have enought brains to figure out we want more Zelda. And hope fully he will figure it out quick before i deside to buy a xbox 360, and before many others turn to Microsoft or Sony instead.

how can i improve my archery arm strength, FAST?

Filed in archery accessories 11 Comments

I’m 13. I have really long arms. Because of this, all the bows that i look at don’t have a draw weight that i can pull, but they do have the right draw lengths. I want to buy a bow soon so i can spend the winter adding accessories to it so i can shoot it by the spring (and the used bows are really cheap now). Therfore, i need to improve my arm strength, fast. I would like to be able to pull back 60 lbs.
i pull back 50 right now, its only a 10lb differance, i think i could do it in a month or so
i know a 60lb bow is not needed, but all the bows that have my right draw length start at at least 60lbs

Yeah that’s just not going to happen I’m sorry. You don’t state what your bow weight is now, however I don’t think a 13 year old can work up to that, that fast. I suspect you are around a 40lb draw? I’m 18 and I’m at 55lbs. Which is a little low for me but I’m out of practice and I bough my bow two years ago.
You might be able to do it if you do some weight lifting and work up your arms however archery is really the only thing that will build up the muscles you use for archery.

new to Archery, which kind of Bow should I get and what are some proper learning techniques? ?

Filed in archery accessories 13 Comments

Im 150lbs, and wouldnt mind spending anywhere from 200 to 300 dollars on a beginner bow for target shooting.

I hear recurve bows are good but im unsure why. I’d like a quality beginner bow that will last me a while if necessary. Im unsure as to If I should use a sight or what other accessories I might want. Also, I really want to develop my skill naturally at first, any advice on how to do this?

Thanks for the help snipers.

Ah target archery, my type of guy. It all depends on what you want to do with it, do you want to compete some day?

A recurve will give you a good start for one primary reason. Once you’ve learned to shoot it properly, and it’s very hard to do it improperly with a recurve and still hit the target, you can usually switch to any other type of bow (compound, longbow, etc) with little problems. Recurve is somewhat of a middle of the road bow. It requires technique to shoot properly, you can’t use sloppy technique, like you can with a compound, and still hope to hit what you’re aiming at. With a sight on a recurve, you will eliminate one variable in the shooting form and that is aiming skill. With a sight, all you have to do is point the sight at the target and shoot, if your arrows are spread over a wide area, you definitely know it’s your form that’s the problem and not aiming. Without a sight, if your arrows are all over the place, you don’t know which is at fault, form or aiming.

There is a basic, fundamental form to archery. While there is no one good form for everyone, certain aspects of the archery form is the same. For instance, everyone stand straight up when shooting as this is the easiest stance to get done properly, outside of a circus you don’t see too many archers shooting with their feet. Anchoring is the first skill you need to learn, that is attaching the back end of the arrow to your face. That might sound painful, but actually it’s just a matter of touching the string to your chin and the top part of your index finger to your jaw. This fixes the rear of the arrow relative to your eye. There are many other methods of anchor, the string to chin method is the most solid, and a luxury you get for using a sight. Barebow shooters don’t have that luxury and have to rely on other forms of anchor that puts the rear of the arrow closer to their eyes

Here is the basic archery form, it used to be called the 9 steps, but now NAA revised it to the 10 steps. At the beginning, ignore step 7

http://www.learnarchery.com/basicarcheryinstruction9steps.html

As for bows, if you want to learn target archery properly, you have to start with light bows, very light bows. I’ve been doing this for 8 years, and when I need to learn a new form I drop my poundage to 20 lbs. That gets costly, because you need to buy a lot of limbs. The alternative to that is to build up your form and strength using other people’s equipment. By that I mean, go to a range and usually they have equipment that you can borrow. If you’re in the US, go to www.usarchery.org and find one near you, if you’re lucky you can find one that does it for free.
