I loved this game when I was younger! You can indeed have kids in this game but you have to name them before you know the gender, that or I just had a bug in all three play throughs I did.
My version of "playing a shitty Sims console port bc it was the Sims and I had no PC" was TS3 on DS because it was the only version rated "E". It was surprisingly decent for the DS, I sunk hundreds of hours into it as a kid. There wasn't an open world as all the lots had to be loaded screened into but the world map was fully 3D and explorable, allowing you to jog places, interact with sims, fish, and interact with rabbithole locations. It was quite impressive for the handheld imo.
I LOVED this game so much growing up, except for the glitches. The worst of them was when a bowl of cereal got stuck under the refrigerator and so made the fridge unusable, unsellable and unmoveable so you literally had to move to a different plot and start over OR if it happened to a neighbors house, they would starve to death. Also the stupid fire code would glitch to where I had a lot of space left but it wouldn’t allow me to put down anymore furniture and fires would randomly start on my property all the time and I could never replace the burnt furniture because the STUPID FIRE CODE SAID MY HOUSE WAS TOO FULL WHEN IT LITERALLY WASNT. But other than that the game was fantastic :D
I'm so glad others know this game. I rarely hear about it. It was always so weird going from such control to point and click as sims 3 wii was my first sims game. By the time I started new the town was always so empty, full of those pointed graves along the beach, and having children was a pain since it didn't show gender before naming and it wouldn't let me edit them much when they got older.
Currently thanking the TH-cam overlords for recommending me this video. I am absolutely in stitches giggling over how silly and funny this game is, and your humour is just sending me 😭
I remember playing this game when it was younger. I also remember that their was no cheats so I tried for months to find a glitch. After grieving up I sold everything in my fridge and accidentally found out that if you put a certain type of fish (forgot which one) in a fridge for about 3 hours and sell it, it will sell for more than you bought it for. I'd just do this cause I was to lazy to get a job. But it's kind of odd that that works. Probably just a bug tho.
My first Sims experiences were this, Sims 3 for the DS and the OLD Sims app (where there was Sims 3, Ambitions and World Adventures...thank God I eventually got my own laptop and the proper game 😅
You know you dont have a gaming PC growing up, is when you played pretty much every sims game that was on console and handheld. tbh the sims 3 pets on PS3 was pretty good.
@alpheelol yes 🤣, it was pretty much a stripped down version of the base game with pets and had a semi-open world, which is never talked about tbh. Loved it lots lol.
i left this game running for a few days by accident in like 2013 and my entire wii literally stopped working lmao probably just a coincidence but i like to think that this game completely totalled my wii
I remember buying this for full price just for it to be literally unplayable. I remember there was a storage bug that would say your storage was full no matter what you had in your inventory. There was also a bug where sims kept dying to the point where the town was empty with random graves everywhere. The houses sucked ass. There was no house building aspect. I remember a tree house like a house shaped like a tree but it had no room inside so you couldnt place anything. I loved the game and played it a lot. It had so much potential 😔😔😔
The game isn’t actually broken. The Wii console is supposed to be able to support dual layer discs but it doesn’t do it very well (which is the noise you hear). The game emulates very well with minimal problems, and if you Google “Wii dual layer disc issue” you will find all dual layer Wii games suffer the same issue.
yeah, I noticed people who used emulators had a lot smoother of an experience! the game did actually break pretty bad in part 3 of this series (my most recent upload). i'm not sure if "break" is the right word, but it definitely made me unable to play more lmao
@@alpheelol ah right! Yeah I had so many issues trying to play it on my Wii. At one point the game stopped loading the map in front of me and my Sim fell through the map endlessly 😭
@@jackofallgamesYT oh god 😭 i used to play on my wii all the time as a kid, and once I played the sims 3 for like 5 hours and my wii just shut off and wouldn't turn on again 🙃
@@alpheelol there’s about 10 games for Wii that use dual layer and Nintendo released an update to support them, which is why Sims 3 needs an update when you first play it to allow dual layer, but omg I don’t understand how Nintendo could official support it. One of the Metroid games was bricking people’s consoles and I guess Sims 3 did too 😂
aaaahh. the good ole days. it was my birthday (or almost) and my mom and dad asked me what do you want for your birthday. we went to this game store (we just got the wii when it just came out) and we were looking around.. till I saw this baby laying there, on a rack or something. but my mom and dad and my little brother walked out the store to go find something else. but mind you IT WAS THE LAST ONE!!! and there was this other woman looking at it. I RAN OUT THE STORE BRO 😭 i was yelling so hard from far away. my mom and dad bought the game, and the rest is history. I WAS HOOKED W THIS GAME. i miss the old days. now I got sims 4, but it's doing me dirty LMAO. it's always broken 🙄🙄
the sims are good at making broken games 😭😭 so glad you managed to get the last one, I bought my copy of a woman off eBay as a kid and was soooo excited to play it :))
lol i was showing someone about this game cause it was broken as shit but i need a good video to zonk them with so thank you for making this cause i understand how it feels to not have much appreciation on a youtube channel and videos take a lot of work
Omg I loved this video and your personality lol .. looking forward to your uploads! I’ve been playing since Sims 1! Had all the console games besides the wii version of sims 3! 🤣 I’m gutted I missed out. Sims4Ever ❤ lmao.
This and the sims 3 pets 3ds was my goat
When i played this game my first sim got pregnant one day before aging up into an elder and then got stuck in pregnancy purgatory and couldn’t die
pregnancy purgatory is such an interesting way to put it 😭
I loved this game when I was younger! You can indeed have kids in this game but you have to name them before you know the gender, that or I just had a bug in all three play throughs I did.
OHHH YEAH i remember that because i named a kid “alfie” and it was a girl 💀
Yes that always annoyed me. i just gave them a unisex name XD
@@AuroraButterflyxsame 😂😂
I had that problem too
god the bang bang reference took me OUT u deserve more subs bestie
this game was so glitchy i bought the houseboat and the floor textures glitched and my sims drowned to death. still played it every day tho 💀
omg I always lived in the houseboat and I always remember it being so glitchy lmaoo

@@ducky_vt3982 i played that!! i wanna play it again :)) th-cam.com/video/wi5zrgN9gYo/w-d-xo.htmlsi=jDOa0oyqYdRcK3Rq
Always did the selling fish money glitch or something lol, memories

that fire code was the bane of my existence as a kid lmaoo
not me looking for “i love the national express so i can express myself nationally” 😭😭😭😭 kisses from brazil srsly keep the niche memes i love them
Bro i thought I was the only one who played this game religiously as a kid

thank youu! this video was so fun to make too :)))
@@alpheelol Of course !! Can't wait to see more if you continue the series :)))
I love to wandering around the town until I'm get bored
it's nice to discover different parts of town but past that the game is a bit shallow

It’s catfish. I’d max buy them, put them in the fridge and then immediately sell them so I could move to the houseboat
This game is like a version of gta since you can follow characters everywhere and have friends that are coworkers
love that 70% of furniture in this game is from the sims 2 cause its the easiest port that also meets the low-poly target loll
low poly count and ugly as hell 😭 the sims 2 is still a beautiful game but this one definitely falls short in my opinion haha
PLEASE MAKE MORE OF THESE OMG i didnt know sims 3 for wii was like entirely different froms sims 3 for xbox 360
The amount of time I spend in this game is insane but I loved it
@@AlexandraS-t3m sameee
I have this game it was so much fun but lordddd the glitches and lag made it so bad 😭😭
sometimes glitches add to the charm but in this case it just makes it difficult to play 😭😭😭😭
i never knew sims 3 for the wii existed...
i knew sims 3 for the wii existed before i knew what the sims really was lmaoo
@@alpheelol I would have loved it as a child, even though i also played the Sims 3 on computer
My first Sims experiences were this, Sims 3 for the DS and the OLD Sims app (where there was Sims 3, Ambitions and World Adventures...thank God I eventually got my own laptop and the proper game 😅
You know you dont have a gaming PC growing up, is when you played pretty much every sims game that was on console and handheld. tbh the sims 3 pets on PS3 was pretty good.
i never had a playstation, but ive played sims 3 pets for the xbox, it's so much better than the wii version lol
@alpheelol yes 🤣, it was pretty much a stripped down version of the base game with pets and had a semi-open world, which is never talked about tbh. Loved it lots lol.
@@AuroraButterflyx i need to get my old xbox back so i can play it again, i miss it now :')
One time my sim fell asleep in the water and died lmao
WHATTT I didn't know they could do that lmaooo
@@alpheelol I didn't either 😭. I was like 8 and I was so sad rip sonic
I had this and I instantly knew it was terrible
This is beyond cursed lol
isn't it 😭
Wow, I didn't even know this was a thing and I've been playing the sims since Sims 2!
NO ONE TALKS ABT THISSS
YOURE RIGHT i feel like this game was just completely forgotten (just posted an animal crossing video if that’s something you’d be into lol)
Ohhh my god I remember renting this from Family Video when I was little. It broke and I got frustrated and quit playing LMAO
Core memory unlocked
i left this game running for a few days by accident in like 2013 and my entire wii literally stopped working lmao probably just a coincidence but i like to think that this game completely totalled my wii
@alpheelol bro it probably did 😭😭 this game felt like either a fever dream or a portal to hell we were never meant to unleash
