Super Smash TV
The latter three are hella fun if you can find a partner to play with.
Also, if you pick up an emulator to play Terranigma, check out Bahamut Lagoon and Seiken Densetsu 3 (Secret of Mana 2.) Bahamut Lagoon is like Shining Force with dragons.

Well I used to have a Wii, but I sold it due to lack of interest in the titles. As much as it's cool for you to like the Wii, it's also cool if someone happens to not like it. I mean, if you're gonna expect everybody to respect you for liking the console, shouldn't you respect also those who don't ?
I do not consider myself an elitist prick or jealous or whatever, I just plain didn't like it.
That being said, it's obvious that someone who spends their time telling everybody how liking the Wii is gayer than gay etc etc. does not deserve your respect.
I feel the same way. I gave mine away because I simply hated the motion controls. It's just a personal preference thing.
I might've kept it for the virtual console though if I didn't already have a modded Xbox to emulate the older systems. It sure beats re-buying my old game collection, plus it upscales them all to HD resolutions. Sprites look incredibly sharp in HD.

Lost Odyssey is the only game that's actually made me shed tears. A few others have made me a little teary eyed though, like Suikoden II and Terranigma.
And this might seem a bit strange, but the title screen to Secret of Mana always makes me tear up.

While not quite as obscure as some of the titles listed here, I still find myself humming some of these tunes almost 20 years later.

Yeah it's finally over. Whether or not the series is still worth watching is yet to be seen though. EE had a stupid ending after all.
I think the stupid ending is more due to how the story was handled than anything. In the light novels, Endless Eight is just a one chapter story, at maybe a 20 minute read, so the ending was perfectly satisfactory to me in that context. Now when they somehow manage to drag it out over 2 months worth of copy/paste TV episodes, then it's incredibly underwhelming.
If they stick to the novels without doing anything crazy, the rest of the season should be enjoyable though.

If they include backwards compatibility with it, I'll buy one for sure. My PS2 just died, so that would work out well.
If they don't include it, well... then it's more of a maybe for me. Smaller is definitely better though. Hopefully it's cooler and quieter too.

Gauntlet. I remember playing this game for hours, and yet when I fire it up now I'm bored within minutes.
Shadowgate. Every so often I get the urge to play this game. Then five minutes in, I realize all I really wanted was to listen to the soundtrack.
Altered Beast. Man this game is bad. It was cool as hell back in the day though with co-op.
Any older Dragon Warrior. I can't believe I had the patience to play through these.
Iron Sword. I can barely even control the character properly, let alone try to play the game. Guess it just shows how much my gaming skills have deteriorated.

It apparently can happen any time the 360 is moved with a disc in it, regardless of whether the 360 is on or the disc is spinning. There have been tens of thousands of reported cases, so it's just bad design. If you don't touch the system though it becomes much more rare.
This. If you plan on moving your system at all, do yourself a favor and take out the disc. I moved mine once with a disc in it (system was unplugged), and the next time I fired it up I kept getting Disc Read errors. Took the disc out and it had a laser ring. Needless to say I take my discs out before I move my 360 at all anymore.
And just as a heads up, if you have a Hollywood Video near you, they can buff your disc to look brand new. It's only a few dollars, which is much cheaper than buying a new copy.
