Nope no dvd playback apparently, this is from ign "Nintendo of America's vice president of marketing and corporate affairs, Perrin Kaplan, confirmed to IGN Wii today that its forthcoming Wii console will not play Hollywood DVD movies. The decision to remove the functionality was made in order to deliver the machine at a cheaper cost and because most people today already own DVD players."

check out advanced media network.....if they're lying they're jerks, and i might cry

any news on the american conference anywhere? oh n-sider is startin updates 9:10 From AdvancedMN, "All of the press and online journalists have begun to flow into the auditorium, with plenty of TVs and playable Wii stations around the room. The live press conference will be beginning soon."

10:48 AM: Iwata is speaking now about PSP, PS2, DS, sales figures. So far no mention of the Wii. Of course, it makes sense they're getting the other stuff out of the way first.

its times like this im glad im a bum with no work, if only i could get a crack addiction id be totally autenthic, plus it'd kill the 20mins wait!!

aw no another 20 mins?? the jerks!

sure tis early yet, tho are much sites covering this? or will they just wait out the 12 hours cos if they do.....i'l cry, but then i write a sternly worded letter

Well i was reckoning the 20th with the 84 days away or something! God ninty are jerks aren't they? They're like the lost of videogames they give ya tiny little nuggets of info ant thats it!!

hey dude i subtracted each realease date (i.e Oct 9 is 10 - 9 = 1) and added them all up(i made each positive) an i got 84, counted down from today and i got October 20, a little far fetched i know, but i was lookin on the ign boards and it links up with one of the theories there: ------------------------------------------- faxxanadu "Perhaps the secret to the launch information for Wii is somehow encoded in the text of this news item. You might want to pore over it for a few hours before staying up all night to debate phraseology and comma placement with your friends online." ii=2 October 2 --------------------------------------------- but if u look at the top( i underlined it) there's a 2nd "o" for 20 so there could be a chance!!
