Post by: Kawe / Dave on October 27, 2007, 03:54:16 pm
Post yours here!

Also, please let me know how I find mine ;) then I'll post mine too!

EDIT**
Ok! Here's my Wii friend code:
0538 7116 2109 9417

Thanks for instructions on finding it Ino, I was busy fumbling in system settings for ages looking for it :'D

Hm... I would have to plug mine in...

And for that I would need a game worthy of me plugging it in, and time to play it.

Where's Mario Galaxy?!?!

At the main menu, you see some sort of mail thingy in the lower right. Click that and then choose new message and then Adress book or something like that.

Don't have any multiplayer games (yet), but I'm playing Metroid Prime 3 now!

Anyhoo my friendcode: 8891 3245 4037 0929

hey! I have 10 friend credits to give away so far on Metroid Prime 3, also playing it right now :D (got them for 1000 kills)

I'll send you 3 of them, since I already promised some to sint if he buys the game.

I'll do that now, and also work out my friend code. Give me a few moments :D

My wii's name is Kawe, iirc.

EDIT** okay, I added Ino to my address book (first person in there! hoorah for Wii finally getting games ^^;)

EDIT2** seems like you need to have me registered as a friend too before I can send you any credits. Nintendo is blocking gaming philanthropy! The swines. I guess I can forgive them though, what with them making such incredible games :D

EDIT3!** Oh, there's some setting in metroid options to show if you're playing or not, under wiiconnect24 I think (in metroid, not in wii settings). I don't know if you need that on or not to send/recieve credits, but I've turned mine on just incase.

In Metroid Prime 3, you earn 4 different credits for different things. Blue credits for finding lore in game, red for scanning enemies in game, yellow for beating bosses, and green (friend) ones for certain unspecified acheivements.

The main difference with green credits is you can't get them for yourself. When you earn one, you send it to someone on your Wii friends list, and they receive it as a usable green credit, and vice versa :)

Credits are used to buy bonus material. As well as the usual concept art etc., there's also a screenshot saving utility you can unlock with credits, and things like bumper stickers for Samus' ship (I especially like that one).

So far, I've only found 10 green credits, 1 for each 100 enemies killed up to 1000 enemies. I've killed around 1600-1800 now, but no more green credits past 1000 so far.

That's pretty awesome... it encourages people to make friends!

Good ol' Nintendo...

I kind of abused the early intro level for my 1000 kills - got them all on the part where there's a bajillion crawler mines and you're supposed to use the roll-up to escape them. I stood in a corner and blasted them for a while. Once I noticed I was being awarded friend credits for each one hundred kills by the time I'd killed two hunder, I kept going to see how many I could milk :x

In total, played the game for maybe 5-6 hours so far.

Anyway, I see you added me now so 3 friend credits are winging their way to you :D
