Wii points

[mnbvjifhgtge]

What the hell are wii points i was looking on ign.co.uk and it said that the first batch of old school games are arriving at midnight for wii points

They're these points which you buy from any games shop and then spend them on classic games via your Wii. Old n64 games and before that.

[GommeInc]

Like Habbo Hotel with credits in a way. You buy points and spent them on games like you buy credits for furniture. That's a way I can think of to explain it.

[mnbvjifhgtge]

you have to buy them? or can u get them by buying ninty products like a new wiimote etc etc?

if you're saying that, that's taking it to the extreme really, next you could be saying 'you copied my idea of typing'.

you have to have a cut off point somewhere - i suppose all 3 consoles are replicas of each other, just with different perspectives.

With your logic, Microsoft obviously commited copyright infringement by duplicating an idea that has been used in public transportation for decades. It's called microcommerce, and it's been around for a very long time, just in different fashions not involving video games.

...and also on that note, both Microsoft and Sony copied the idea of making a games console in the first place :P

I wouldn't exactly say Sony copied... As Sony was offered to join Nintendo in making consoles.

[mnbvjifhgtge]

i think he meant that sony + microsh*t copied ninty in making video games

Its basicly like the xbox 360 points where you can download content , files and demos etc. Nintendo havent really copied.
