The Roader enemy indicates to me along with the menu layouts that this game seems to be borrowing a fair amount of design ideas from Kirby Air Ride. The wheelie enemy is very similar in design to the Wheelie and Rex Wheelie. R.O.B Squad --> BEST. ENEMY. EVER.

They only show the revealed characters on the website so other icons have probably been deliberately hidden for that screenshot. I see there are some Mii icons as well. Mii to be playable applying your unique selected Mii in system with generic moveset? Yes Please! What day this week is the 100th update, was it today?

It also appears this is the first time we have ever seen the character damage metre in this game. I especially like the last line, regarding additional online services. It appears Wii Connect 24 could be used to transfer promotional freebies to players and even offer "special" characters/stages to be bought on Wii Shop. The lost dream of not having the characters, stages you want, may just become a reality again and be offered on Wii shop.

:bouncy: WI-FI CONFIRMED! :bouncy: UPDATE = Wi-Fi Play This game supports Nintendo Wi-Fi Connection. If you connect your Wii to the Internet, you can enjoy linked battles with distant people! For details, click here (link leads to Nintendo Wifi Connection Page). But because this form of communication is greatly affected by the distance between you and your opponent, your brawls may not run smoothly if you’re really far apart—like, for instance, if you’re connecting between Japan and America. The more distant you are, the worse your connection becomes, and the slower it feels. I apologize, but I hope you understand. This is the main menu for Wi-Fi! There are two primary connection methods. The names of these methods are "With Friends" and "With Anyone." The menus and structures of each method are pretty different. With Friends Wii friends who have registered one another’s names can play together freely. Register your friends! If you’re registered as friends, you can check each other’s status. If a friend is online and you earn his or her consent, you can enter a battle. You can change your icon... And even send short messages during brawls! These short messages are entered in advance, and you send them by taunting. There are four messages for the four directions on the + Control Pad: Up, down, left and right. With friends, you can brawl any way you like. And there are other modes besides just free-for-alls. With Anyone You can also battle with people you don’t know who are looking for brawls. The most important point here is that you will not know each other’s names. If you think of your opponent as a simple scarecrow, any psychological barriers may melt away. Your opponent will not know your name or any information about you, and neither of you can send short messages. There will also be no battle records kept for this mode, so whether you win or lose, it doesn’t matter. Just sit back and play. Now, while you’re waiting for a match to start, you can kill time with a little practice on Sandbag. Practice, practice! We’re planning a number of services that make use of Wi-Fi, but we’ll reveal them gradually with the other modes. Enjoy.

As long as it has no effect on quality games, I don't care in the slightest.

ZOMG PS1 RE-RELEASED ONTO CONSOLE MARKET!

Double edged sword situation once again. Complain due to lack of updates, complain due to having too many updates and spoiling too much of the game. All updates of a megaton nature are either being concealed until released or unveiled at any upcoming major gaming industry events like E for All...

These conferences are for shareholders mainly... Keep them happy (through reaffirming strong performance in terms of sales equates to maximised return on their investment through dividends/interest payments from debt securities) --> they put more money into the business = more investment opportunities for Nintendo = more games/consoles for us.

Its probably as a result of me not disabling security temporarily so I can download the firmware update that has the option included. Thats one item off my list now... Cool indeed! I've missed like 50 Wii poll channel questions, its been that long I don't even remember the name of the channel anymore!

I can see from that pic clearly the Bowser model is better in Brawl than in Melee...

It ain't gone, but it ain't affecting Wiis performance all that much... The perception was emphasised during Nintendos dark times, but it didn't paint a truly accurate picture...

I would like to see the following regarding software and hardware on Wii in 2008 and beyond Software --> Tangiable form released in stores (includes first, second and third party efforts) in no particular order: Starfox Wii (with online dogfights as well as online co-op mode) Pikmin 3, Mario Party 9 (with online play and Wii shop customisation options) True Paper Mario Game/Sequel (not spin-off), F-Zero Wii (with online capabilities and greater customisation of vehicles and drivers, and this time be able to rotate characters 360 degrees), Animal Crossing Wii (with online capabilities) Geist 2 (with online multiplayer and better FPS gameplay), Donkey Kong Country 4 (special project with Rareware), Snowboard Kids 3 (4 player online races), Waverace Wii, New installments of Mario Golf and Mario Tennis, Red Steel 2 (with online multiplayer and better FPS gameplay), Disaster: Day of Crisis to not be cancelled and not disappoint Wii Sports 2 (I know this ain't releasing, but i'm mentioning this anyway) Grand Theft Auto 4 on Wii as well as a compilation of VC, SA and GTAIII Castlevania Wii 1080 Wii House of the Dead Wii (would put Umbrella Chronicles to shame) AS MANY ONLINE GAMES AS POSSIBLE and Something right out of the blue, totally original, unexpected IPs that involve actual proper gameplay, not mini games to appeal to non gamers in isolation Software --> intangiable form released on Wii Shop channel: Basically, any game NOT released in PAL regions GOOD original efforts for Wii ware Promotional freebies from time to time as well Hardware: Black Wii! Wireless Nunchuck Wireless Classic Controller Wireless Sensor bar (1st party) Each VC game to have a playable timed free demo to get a true feel for the game, upon the expiring of the demo, the game ends and a message along the lines of "Thats it for free play" appears or it just fades out to the buying screen again Overhaul of Mii channel. The appeal has worn off. Need more customisation options to differntiate sexes DS demo channel More interesting Wii channels Fix up the SD card debarcle and/or make Wii HDD compatible, much needed MAJOR FIRMWARE UPGRADE for Wii to improve on all of the interfaces/systems current issues! RELEASE DA PROJECTOR! ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- I haven't listed absolutely everything i'd like but its a start...

This is just laziness on my part to research on the plot aspects of this game and theres probably a perfectly logical explanation for this, but whats the deal with umbrella featuring in the games title. Is it linked with previous Resident Evil games, is it a random word chucked in there for the sake of it, or does an umbrella actually feature in the game where you can either use it as a weapon or give temporary shade to zombies and cloud them from the rain and have tea with them in appreciation for keeping them dry?

I am still yet to play this game...

Are there actual ghosts in this game?

Might just get this, if I liked Wii Play ping pong (despite its restrictive nature) its a certainty i'll like this. So entertaining to watch the game of Ping Pong is, absolutely spastic the tourneys are, incredible skill and speed, unlike the ultra boring real life tennis that is so one sided and predictible...

:awesome: No adjustments needed here for my top 3 most wanted Wii games.

TEH megaton is coming... SATURDAY UPDATE!!!

But what point and click game actually has replay value?

I wouldn't be surprised if the code completed for Hammer up this point, was directly converted to the successor official Zelda game in the series. Contemporary setting, shares virtually the same mechanics (i.e. swing motion for hammer, same as sword etc)...

They are leaps and bounds beyond the poor backgrounds in Melee.

Phishers heaven...

I'd like to see any minor changes they've made to the series defining move Falcon Punch, his tone of voice, speed of movement, shape of fire falcon etc.
