Do not buy Monky Island on Wii - Surf314 - 07-28-2009

Seriously it is absolute shit. The audio is so compressed it is hard to understand. The graphics are choppy. The game is laggy. It chugs like crazy and loads all the time. It is pretty much unplayable. I made a thread on their forums about it.

I've heard it was really good on the PC


Re: Do not buy Monky Island on Wii - Squishy3 - 07-28-2009

the PC and 360 ports are good.

It's not really surprising when they have a 50MB filesize cap because of the Wii's abysmal storage space.

the wii is a terrible system, seriously dont buy it, even for kids or w/e, it's just baddddd

It's wicket on the PC.
I've played the old version on about three different SCUMM emulators a total of about twelve times.

The special edition on PC is well worth the price. Besides actual music and voice work (by the same voice actors of previous MI games even) they have all new art which you can toggle between with F10. You can toggle at any time, even in cut scenes.


Only down side is that I beat it in under three hours. Now I gotta play it again.

I think the Wii we got for $150 was a pretty good deal.  Considering it was easy as shit to mod and we never have to buy anything else for it.  And when you have a gaming PC, the library is genuinely comparable to any other console (which is pretty sad on the part of the 360).

i never really bothered to do anything to my wii (bbb) so i dont know what its capable of, but just vanilla stuff you can play with an un modded wii is like... 2 games, twilight princessb (zelda but with wolves), mario kart( mario kart w/ motorcycles)

and there's virtual console if you cant get an emulator working, it has some good stuff but not much

Pretty sure he misunderstood what was meant by virtual console (thinking it was wii games on pc rather than old games on the wii?)

Pretty sure he is on lots of pain killers.
