  1. I knew you wouldn't be able to resist. :wink: I get the feeling Eledees is going to be another Excite Truck. Bad reviews, low initial sales and then... Boom!
  2. Gotta love NoE's generic e-mail response. I got exactly the same reply when I e-mailed them about the component cable. After what appeared to be a turnaround with Wii launching so soon after the US and Japan, it's pretty safe to say that NoE have now returned to form. Is Watchdog still on TV? I reckon we should try and get NoE on that.
  3. Yeah I know. Pangya too (in Japan anyway) but I'm not getting either of those. :wink: You should cancel and order from somewhere else. I bet Play would get it to you quicker than that, and it's the same price as Amazon: http://www.play.com/Games/Wii/GENCD/3-/1027928/Eledees/Product.html
  4. Now if I was you I'd take that £13 and put it towards an official RGB cable. Trust me, when it comes to these things Nintendo's stuff is always the best. Mind you, as DCK already pointed out, a lot of it comes down to the TV too. So even with the official lead the jump might not be all that massive.
  5. Same here. Can't believe it, finally the last "launch" game is almost here. Completed Mystical Ninja yesterday too so the timing is perfect.
  6. Elebits/Eledees worldwide sales figures: Japan = 62,075 US = 93,125 Europe = 3 Surely some of the Portuguese mafia will be getting this?
  7. Nah I'm just assuming it's RTP, that's Portugal’s main TV company right? Anyway, let us know if you find out anything from the e-mail, I'd be very interested to discover what it's all about.
  8. For some reason I find the Japanese version to be a bit more tolerable: The music in first half of that trailer is pretty cool though, kind of got Konami's old-school funky vibe to it. Seriously though, what the hell does RTP have to do with it, or is the guy that wrote that IGN review just being a weirdo?
  9. Yeah, according to everyone bar Konami and NoE. Anyway, I added it back to the list. Fingers crossed it makes it as I could really do with a new Wii game.
  10. Yeah I really hope Eledees does come out next week, but I won't be at all surprised if it does slip yet again. I mean we're like 6 days away now and there's still no official confirmation! Konami's site just says April 2007, as does NoE's Q2 list.
  11. Yeah I've got it as well so I won't be getting it for VC. Unless by some miracle they did include the Expansion Pack from the DD, then I'd definitely get it.
  12. Cool thread idea Emasher. These are all the ones I could find, (there are loads more than this though, yeah I used to change my sig a lot! ) oldest at the top:
  13. Yeah I guess Spider-Man is a dead cert, to tie-in with the movie release so I've added it back to "Coming Soon". If anyone can find the confirmation for Cooking Mama or any of the other games I'd appreciate it. Just checked 505's site, they have it down as March 2007 : http://www.505gamestreet.com/gameinfo.htm?id=161 *EDIT* OK, added Cooking Mama. Welsh_gamer PM'd me a link to 505's announcement, weird how they still have March on their site though.
  14. Yeah I wonder why they left that bit of info out? Seriously though that article was insulting, not to mention embarrassing for NoE. First they give Europe a shit release schedule and then go on to try and scare people about mod chips so they won't take advantage of their incompetence. Unbelievable. How about they just get the games to us in a reasonable time frame, comparable to the JPN/US release dates so people don't need to result to using mod chips!
  15. While I'm pretty sure all of those dates will stick, there's still no confirmation (to my knowledge) for any of those dates from the publishers. So yeah they can stay on TBD for now.
  16. You obviously haven’t heard this then :
  17. Check my post here: http://www.n-europe.com/forum/showpost.php?p=410254&postcount=234 Basically I've decided to only move titles out of TBD once they get a confirmed date by either NoE or the game's publisher. I strongly believe (and hope) the Eledees date of 04/05/07 will stick this time (what with pretty much every retailer having that date) but it's still not been confirmed by Konami or NoE. So yeah the [?] system has been dropped as it's too much hassle when games keep changing dates every five seconds, I'd much rather the focus of this list is on the confirmed stuff.
  18. Sorry Cube. Must have missed your earlier post. Anyway, added them to TDB now. : peace:
  19. Cheers mate. So, another day, another release date. NoE are on fire! Reckon we'll have a date for Paper Mario tomorrow?
  20. Yeah that is pretty cool. That game looks mental! Glad to hear you're enjoying Mystical Ninja flameboy. Are you playing with the Classic controller? I picked one up yesterday, (got bored of waiting for HMV ) really cute controller, much smaller than I was expecting! Feels great though, just a shame about the need to be connected to the Wii Remote, would've been 100% perfect if it was wireless. Interesting how they don't mention the mysterious button / clip device thingy in the manual. Wonder if we'll ever see a use for that.
  21. Yeah, I mean it's great that Europe has a new release date and everything, but I'm really struggling to get excited about RE4: Wii Edition. Don't get me wrong, I absolutely love the game it's just that having played through it so many times already the motivation to do it all over again with new controls isn't really there. I'll most probably be getting it though for the extra stuff (that should have been in the GCN game in the first place! ) Separate Ways should be good, it'll be nice to play as Ada some more. :wink: Hopefully Capcom will stick to their promise and it'll be a budget title too.
  22. Resident Evil 4: Wii Edition now has a confirmed date by NoE, it's out on the 29th of June. Yeah, that's one of the main reasons I want it too. I never got on with the editor in Timesplitters though, it would pretty much always make my Gamecube crash!
  23. Yeah I think you're right, they definitely look like the Gamecube models, but I think they hold up pretty well actually. When they're right up close on screen shots they look a bit dodgy, but in motion on the gameplay video I think they look alright. They probably could do with a little bit of polish, but I don't reckon Capcom will though. Personally I wouldn’t mind if things stay as they are now.
  24. Err... I think the post just above yours has a pretty good suggestion. Anyway, Kirby's Adventure is good. But Mystical Ninja is better. :wink:
  25. I decided to download Mystical Ninja earlier on today, quality game. Just as good as I remember it! Really humorous dialogue and great music too. Konami were so awesome back in the SNES era. Looking forward to Eledees, but I hope Konami show a lot more support for Wii. A new Mystical Ninja game would be very cool indeed. Seriously though, if anyone has 800 points burning a hole in their virtual pocket, get this game. It's worth it for the mini-games alone, gotta love mini-Gradius!
