i always use right bumper to get hot keys pulled up, makes passing easier

Yeah icon passing in 2k11 makes everything easier. Prevents a lot of those pass to the wrong player mistakes.

If you're looking for a baseball game for the Wii, your only option would be MLB 2K (which is pretty bad). MLB The Show is a Sony exclusive.
Damn, was hoping for a fun MIB game on the Wii. Although I did see some World Series kid version. It had 2 of their titles in one package. Hell I really really wanted to see a boxing game like what is it?, Fight Night? or whatever its called. A real boxing game too, not some cheap shit like K.O. Punchout? or whatever its called.

I loved Triple Play 99 because the commentary with Jim Hughson and Buck Martinez was classic. I played that game for years, of course this was when the computer was main gaming option.

Its either a gold or a yellowish cover with Sosa airbrushed while swinging. Graphics are a major throwback compared to todays games lol. But was fun after quite a few years.

Triple Play was the best at the time I thought. Microsoft Baseball 2001 was such a disappointment.

So... Im back lol. Im killing myself by working overtime, but the obvious benefit is da money. Though its not like I raking in thousands, but after working the last 7 days, and working Sunday and Monday, Im in a position to buy something good. So, Ive had my eye on Wii Fit for over a year. As I want something that gets me active, figure that will do it lol. Whats your take on it? I know they have other games as well these days.

So I picked up The Bigs and Sid Meiers Pirates, cant argue for 25 bucks. But anyone ever played Don Kings Boxing? Showtime Boxing? Don Kings sounds better, but dunno. Wouldve bought SimCity, was a big fan of the SNES, but no Million dollar cheat :(

I know a lot of older people that use it to workout and stuff. They seem to enjoy it. They use the balance board and everything.

I've never heard of Don Kings Boxing, nor Showtime Boxing. For boxing games on the Wii, I just play the boxing game on Wii Sports. I think that's pretty fun.

Pirates got a 6.0 score on Gamespot, so it's not terrible.

The Bigs is...meh. But for a baseball game on the Wii, there aren't many better options out there.

If you're looking for an in depth Wii game like Grand Theft Auto, I'd give No More Heroes a shot.

Here's a video on it:

I saw No More Heroes 2 I believe. The Bigs is a big piece of fucking shit. So fucking aggravated now, its beyond funny. Fucking AI does an infield HR because the ****** wont throw the ball. And when it finally does, it goes straight to 1st. **** it, I'll buy the damn kiddie version with working mechanics. Piece of shits going back. Popped in Pirates, so that should be fun. Heard many saying they loved it.

Well, for the record, Sid Meiers Pirates is fucking addicing. And now that Im at work, feel like a crackhead without any crack. Few things Im not utterly fond of like crew morale, not sure wtf to do to make em happy. Finding treasure, dismantling Spain, took out the other infamous Pirates, made a shitload of money and still they *****. Tho my recent game did have me dominate with morale not faltering. Many years before I had to split em up and recruit again. Regardless, awesome game to amuse thyself :)

If you get the Wii Fit Wii Fit + recommended) then it's cool as long as you're actually dedicated to it. I played the shit outta that game for a month...now I play it for 20 minutes once every 3 months. It's cool, and really cool if you wanna track weight loss/gain.....but only a handful of games/exercises are worth while.

When I 1st got the Wii, I had a week vaction, and played the living hell out of Wii Sports. Bowling, Tennis, Boxing, and Baseball. I even blew out my arm lol. But the effects were amazing. But thanks to indigestion, which felt like I havent ate despite eating a mere 30mins prior, I saw my weight go wild. Knock on wood, the meds I got have worked, and since ending the meds, Ive dropped 10lbs in 2 weeks. So if the Wii Fit can keep me active again, Im sold.
