The wii channel would be good if you could overlay it ontop of normal tv. But you can't so suckky.

That would be great news. So then nintendo can be more realistic about the wii price.

you must be a nintendo VIP.

Wrong Red Steel is definately not online (at launch anyway ...unless I've missed something big) I kinda agree with small tac but would see it as futile to post such feelings so strongly on a ninty fansite

David Yarnton is basically sales manager. Nintendo japan does the product designs. So he is not the first to know some new things relating to tech or games. However, something thats fundamental to marketing strategy, he would know and has stated clearly. Get over it.

I had the same problem. I spammed all their contact emails for a few weeks and it finally arrives about 45days. Keep nagging them and the swag will be yours. I also got star fox assult from the catelogue. I think its ok. If like me you are on the net 24/7, you can grab some good stuff for the hours that its available.

get uk as you can trade / ebay games easily. they hold their value

http://www.eurogamer.net/article.php?article_id=67653 <<orders 360 instead>>

i reckon xbox live will be free once in game advertising etc is the norm. So dont stockpile too many.

x360 bundles at launch were a rip off. forcing you to take crap games you didnt need. so dont get too excited. I'd buy the hardware here and import the games cheaply

gamestation online are taking preorders BUT AVOID THEM. THEY ARE THE WORST ONLINE RETAILER

eurogamer just told us, check their site

isnt that the one with duck hunt and table tennis as mentioned for Japan release

tips 1) use http://www.quidco.co.uk for cash back 2% with play I made over £100 last year on cashback 2) Trade your gamecube stuff now for credit notes 3) Dont buy at launch if you can resist 4) Open an HMV credit card and get 10% off purchase

that was a crap rumour spread by news hungry websites on a weekend. Please dont bring it up again. Reggie could only refer to the territory he controlled. The logic is like saying that because black wii colour was not mentioned by anyone... it will NEVER be available.

"Accompanying the console launch will be around 20 software titles including Wii Play and The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess and from third party publishers launch games include: Ubisoft’s RED STEEL, EA’s Need for Speed: Carbon, Activision’s Tony Hawk’s Downhill Jam, THQ’s Disney/ Pixar’s Cars and Sega’s Super Monkey Ball Banana Blitz" just becasue its not mentioned does not mean its not one of the 20

thats how nasty rumours start. Give some evidence please or you'll just seem like a troll

maybe some behind the scenese deal with ubisoft. ie make lots of launch games and we wont compete with you in all territories. (4x4 and that cel shaded game)

http://www.play.com taking preorders for all you rich people

I hope the price is not high because of anticipated shortages.

I agree. I'm sure it wont stop people speculating all manner of things. Hope that there was avideo or audio recording for clarification

well the wii is only gamecube 1.5, so you'd expect a true next gen system soon. Maybe 2 years when HDTV's are common. Nintendo need that long for the hype machine to roll. They probably already have the technology ready. <<FLAMEBAIT ALERT>>

PROs - Bet microsoft will release a tempting bundle eg GRAW+360core at £199.

did they announce a european GC release date?

Now we have a european date, are you going to get one at launch? Me personally its a no. I'll get gamecube zelda. 360 looks tempting. Also want a black wii.
