Great for new fantasy baseball players!

I used this app last night during a fantasy baseball draft and it was really helpful. I myself don't watch much baseball so this was great for finding good players.

The app lists the top 300 players and then you can sort the players by position too. And there's some stats under each name. My favorite feature was the search, it made it so that you could find a player within seconds. Then when you find a player you either click draft to other team or draft to my team. So whenever someone's drafted, you can sort the lists by "available" to see who's left to pick from.

Then later you can just hit the my team tab and it lists out all the players you drafted.

It was definitely a lot easier to use this app than having a huge list of players and searching for one to cross out (which is what everyone around me was doing!)

Overall, I'd give this app a 5/5.

I like that it's "somewhat" wireless

If you want to play SNES or N64 Virtual Console games, a Wii Classic Controller or GameCube controller is mandatory, due to the triggers.

I bought this yesterday, because I wanted to play Super Mario World which I bought today. The controller cost me $20.00 at GameStop.

Before I bought it and took it out of the package, I thought the controller plugged into the Gamecube controller slots. To my surprise, it connects to your wiimote. So I like that it's [i]somewhat[/i] wireless, it's a hell of a lot better than plugging it into the slots. (Which is one reason I'd want this instead of a GameCube controller.)

But the thing works as it should. It is basically the same thing as a Super Nintendo controller, but this has 2 analog sticks. You can use the left one for SNES games, but I'd rather use the arrow pad.

So overall, I like it. I guess I have to recommend buying it, as it is needed to play VC games. (Unless you have GameCube controllers, of course.)

Love It

I got a Wii this past Christmas, and I love it.

First off, the wiimotes. The wii comes with one, and I got another from buying Wii Play. They're wireless controllers that can sense where you're pointing, and how you move the controller. So when you play baseball, it know when you swing, and when you play bowling, it can tell if you put some spin on it. I really like that you can turn the Wii off via the power button on the wiimotes. Also, the wiimotes have little speakers for sound effects, and they rumble. For example, in bowling, it'll "ding" when it's your turn, or it'll make some noise if you mess up in Guitar Hero.

The wii is based around "channels". There's the Disc channel, internet channel, wii shop channel, news channel, weather channel, and some optional ones for free from wii shop. The internet, weather, and news run on wifi, which is very simple to set up (in options).

A really cool feature that the wii has is "Virtual Consoles". You can buy Virtual Consoles  more

Great for charging iPods

I've had my iHome for a year or two now. I listen to the radio on it a lot and also listen to my iPod Nano on it. My brother uses it to charge his iPod Touch also. (Take the USB cord that connects it to the computer, connect the USB end into the "Shuffle" slot, and the other end into another iPod so you can charge 2 at once!)

This product can work with any audio device, whether it's an iPod or not. It comes with a cord with a 3.5mm headphone jack at each end. Just plug one end to say, a CD player, and the other into the back of the iHome.

The iHome comes with a bunch of dock connectors, so that any iPod can fit into it snugly. However, the Nano one that came with mine fit into the radio, but my iPod wouldnt fit into it, it was a couple milimeters off. Luckily, my iPod came with one, but that was white and my iHome was black.

A cool feature on the iHome is the alarm. It starts out really soft, then gradually gets louder to wake you up.

Overall, it's a great product for  more

Who would use batteries over this?

If you have a Wii, you can't go without one of these. It's a wiimote charger, no more need for batteries.

I basically have this, but the brand I have is GigaWare (Wasn't on the site.). I believe this plugs into the wall, but mine plugs into my Wii via USB.

This product is absolutely amazing. You can just play Wii all day, then put the controllers in the charger when you go to bed. The next morning, they'll be fully charged.

I got one of these right when I got my Wii. I've never used batteries, and I don't get why people do.

When you get the product, you get special battery covers to put on your wiimotes. So put those on, then click the red Sync button on your Wii. Using a pen or something, push down the button on the cover of the wiimote so that it hits the red button inside (batteries are on the cover, so you cant just push the button inside the wiimote).

Overalll, if you have a Wii, get one of these!

Great Game

I got this game for Christmas, it was my first Wii game (besides Wii Play and Wii Sports).

It cost $90 for the game and the guitar (wireless of course!)

It's a really fun game, even if you don't know how to play guitar. I started off my career on easy, of course, and now I'm starting hard. However, I really suck at doing the fifth finger notes! So all I'm really good at is Medium, and I finally passed Fire and Flames medium.

I really like that on this game, you can face people via wifi. It's really fun, and you can do different types of battles and stuff. Also, I like that the wiimote makes a noise when you mess up instead of the TV, so you know exactly when you're playing wrong, especially with multiplayer.

Overall, it's a great game, I reccomend it.

It's alright

I got this game for $30 about a month ago. I think I should of just went with Wario Wares for $50.

This game's alright, it's kind of like Wario, where you do different things with your wiimote. You chop, serve, fry, butter pans, roll dough, etc...

But after a while, it kind of gets boring because you do the same stuff for like every recipe, and I've heard that this is nothing like the DS version which everyone seems to love.

If you're not really into video games and just want an easy game, or wanna play with the family or something, I guess this would be a good game for you.

I sure wouldn't buy it...

I went to my friend's house, and we played this game.

I honestly would never buy it, it's extremely boring. All you do is jump up and hit a dice and go that many spaces forward. But you have "candy" which allows you to possibly steal stars from other people.

It's about as exciting as Monopoly. We played it once for like an hour (it takes forever for someone to win!), and I was like, "Finally, done playing this dumbass game, maybe we'll play Wii Sports or something..." until they said "Alright, let's play again!"

Altough, the second time we played, I ended up kicking everyone's ass in it! I had like 11 stars and everyone else had like 4 or 5 lol

Overall, I don't get who would pay $50 for this game.

Best Wii Game!

I absoultely love this game, it's the best game that I have for Wii in my opinion. The 2D »
3D mode is awesome, and I love that you can play as Mario, Bowser, and Peach (if you get far enough.) However, there's definitely too much talking in it! But other than that, it really brings back the fun of the original super mario bros. games (which I have on virtual console
). If you own a Wii, you have to buy this game!
