This might never end, you know, these posts about the Wii. Alright, maybe they'll end at some point in the future, but not yet:
I've spent about 7 hours in Zelda now on the Wii, and I regret complaining about the graphics before. Granted, they are much lower quality than, say, the XBOX 360, but the more I play (and especially once I got into twilight), the better it looks to me. I think it suffers from the fact that the first area of the game isn't well designed and so it gives a bad first impression. But it gets much better.
Gameplay-wise, Zelda is a crapload of fun. There are so many facets to the game so far and, at the risk of giving even the slightest detail away, you end up playing as a wolf, as a human (Link), riding a horse and more. The Wiimote control does feel a little tacked on, at least at first, but you get used to it and then it's fun.
I can't get enough Wii Sports Tennis. The more you play, the better the AI is against you, so matches last longer and are more challenging. I'm up to skill level somewhere around 340 and games are now much more challenging and enjoyable.
I just noticed the Wii Sports Fitness test, where you play various challenges and then your fitness "age" is determined from your scores. I just did it for the first time and I'm apparently 56. The Wii says I should take this test every day to improve.
For all the marketing done with the Wii's disc slot being lit up blue (even the box shows it this way), the slot never actually glows unless you have a message. Kind of weird for them to have used the lit up shot for everything when that happens very rarely. Not that I necessarily want it to be on. When I got a message just now it was pulsing and it was hard to focus on playing a game with that thing pulsing really brightly. I've switched it back to dim but haven't gotten another message yet so I don't know if the dim setting pulses. Still seems weird for them to have always shown the Wii with it lit up.
It's very comfortable to have the two controllers split. Having the nunchuck in one hand and the Wiimote in the other and being able to rest them in different places is surprisingly comfortable for the hands. Playing XBOX last night afterward wasn't a problem, per se, but I did realize that not being able to have my hands wherever I wanted them was a little constricting. It's not that I play with my hands all over the place, but being able to have your hands a foot or two apart causes less strain on my wrists. Granted, when I'm swinging my hands all the time to hit baddies with my sword that can't really be good for the joints, but still.
