New Trailer http://www.gametrailers.com/player.php?id=13580&type=mov&pl=game

Something that escaped my notice that may turn out to be EXTREMELY important! IGN had this to say in an interview with Alan Dale (Desmonds girlfriends father), who appeared briefly in the 2nd to last episode; I hadn't really noticed the name Widmore appear before and so didn't make the connection;But if his company has made equipment for the island, and it was his boat race that Desmond was in when he was shipwrecked on the island, and Libby sold him the boat that he used in the race and she was on the island!! Lost is such a great show!! Also here's some generaal series 3 info from interviews with the Lost creators, I'm glad they're doing it like this; clearing up season 1 and 2 at the start of season 3, then taking a short break to close it as a kind of first chapter! So the theme of season three is 'The Others'!! Makes sense!

No doubt Micheal will return to the island or something will happen to him; it's just the way 'Henry' said 'Bon Voyage Micheal' (or what ever). I think the electromagnetic pulse will have wiped effected his compass and he'll have to return. About the Quarantine hatch cover that fell from the sky; I think it is the same hatch cover as the one they blew up. The way I saw it was that the electromagnetic charge builds up in the hatch and draws everything towards it, but when the charge was dispelled using the key, everything was suddenly repelled and launched into the air. The scene after the hatch cover falliong seemed to show people on the beach collecting metal cans etc... I thought it the things that had gone skywards? I don't really understand the people in the arctic base that are trying to find Desmond; how do they know that the magnetic pulse (I presume that was the reading that appeared on their computer) has anything to do with Desmond, why would they think he's where the pulse was? The fake 'Others' base was interesting! Like the fake hatch doorway backing on to the mountain! I wonder if the 'Others' actually live on the island at all, or on a place nearby, hense the boat/s they have. Was the lady who sold Desmond the boat, Libby (before she went mental)? Her name was Elizabeth and she looked quite alot like her! There are still a few more insignificant(??) things to be cleared up; - What's with that green bird? - What's happened to the polar bear? - Where's the mind reading smoke cloud 'monster' gone?

Yeah, they are certainly considering the Wii;

This is how the Mario Party series works; N64 - 1,2,3 GC - 4,5,6,7 Wii - 8,9,10,11,12 But seriously, there should be fewer editions this time if they use downloads, but then again; if it sells, it sells!

I'll be pre-ordering from GAME tomorrow!

The DS version got 7.0 from IGN; Review; http://uk.ds.ign.com/objects/794/794729.html The title would suggest online multiplayer, though I don't think anything's been confirmed yet.

The Wii version of the DS game, More pictures http://uk.media.wii.ign.com/media/827/827218/imgs_1.html

New pictures; Looks alright, but I'd much rather get Excitetruck!!

Metroid shouldn't be too far into 2007 (it was an intended launch title after all), probably no later than March. Mario was said to be about 6 months from the Wii's launch wasn't it, so that should be out around Q2 2007. I think SSBM is most likely to be anywhere between a May launch (like Melee) and a Christmas 2007 launch.

Yeah I agree!I wouldn't really want realistic rock textures etc... I like the cartoon look of the game and I think if the graphics went too far and were similar to those of Kameo for example, it would ruin the look of the game. When I first saw Battalion Wars 2 in motion, I almost thought it was abit too polished and preferred the look of the gamecube version. However, I think they've got it just right and the draw distance is great!

Same! It really is terrible, I don't know why because Ada and Krauser have good resemblances!It's a shame and it doesn't bode well for Chris and Jill etc...

OMG!! http://www.cmdstore.com/residentevil.html I think they are just the Resi artworks and not the actual figures, but they should be a cool collection!!

They have them on this site but they are so expensive!http://www.cmdstore.com/leofzeacfi.html Other Zelda collectables; http://www.cmdstore.com/legendofzelda.html These Mario ones are great! http://www.cmdstore.com/mariokart64.html

Looks like that's what it's gonna be!

Yeah, that would be a great move!Launch the Black console and offer some awesome bundles!

Agreed! I think Wii will be fine anyway, and don't really think that the PS3 will effect whether or not Wii is a success. The consoles are SO different in terms of price, aswell as in terms of the gameplay experiences they offer. I think in the same way the DS saw off the PSP, the Wi will keep selling dispite the PS3!

This game looks fantastic, but I don't have a Playstation! I just hope there's a Wii version with the Wii-mote as the virtual paintbrush!

Awesome news for Nintendo!! I better get on and pre-order mine at GAME!! Are they taking instore pre-orders yet?

Try this store http://cmdstore.stores.yahoo.net/ Make sure to check ebay for collectables! There are plenty of Resident Evil, Halo, Metal Gear Solid and other series on there! Also http://www.play.com sell the first4figures Nintendo collectables aswell as Halo and other series. Amazon also sell a number of series

I emailed them a few weeks ago and they said the next two collectables that would be shown and for pre-order would be Varia Suit Samus and then not long after would be Skull Kid (Gravity Suit Samus was a surprise limited edition). I'd imagine it would be Skull Kid wearing the mask, as that's really what you associate with the character and is the main character in Majora's Mask. Plus it looks like they get the character designs from Nintendo artwork, so I'd expect Skull Kid might be like this;

They are making Skull Kid, which should be cool! I don't think the prices are too bad considering the size and quality of the figures. www.play.com's price of £54.99 is pretty good I think; but only if you get a couple of them. It's alot if you wanted to collect alot of them!

Just to let everyone know, http://www.first4figures.com now have Varia Suit Samus and a VERY limited edition Gravity Suit Samus for Pre-order! They also plan to make; Samus Aran’s Light Suit, Dark Suit, and Phazon Suit!!. They also have a poll on the main site asking if they should make Zero Suit Samus!! Which would be awesome!! Also http://www.play.com have Fierce Deity Link and Sheik for Pre-order at £54.99 Fierce Deity Link http://www.play.com/Gadgets/Gadgets/4-/1107060/The_Legend_Of_Zelda_Fierce_Deity_Link_Figure/Product.html# Shiek http://www.play.com/Gadgets/Gadgets/PROD/3-/1134693/The_Legend_Of_Zelda_Sheik_Statue/Product.html

Gameplay Video; http://www.gametrailers.com/player.php?id=13156&type=mov&pl=game Level/Environment looks great!!

Game have done midnight launches before (I think they did for the 360), I think I might go for the midnight launch at Game if they have one for the Wii!
