Helmsly

About 2 weeks ago the Japanese Nintendo site had a new 'Iwata ask's' article with developers of Mario Galaxy but obviously it was in Japanese . Neither Nintendo.co.uk or.com has translated it yet (and the JP site is up to part 3) but this guy has translated part 1: http://3e8.org/writings/iwata-asks/super-mario-galaxy-vol-1.html I accidentally posted this in the Paper Mario tread before

10 minute long off screen footage from IGN http://uk.media.wii.ign.com/media/896/896694/vids_1.html

So the embargo from last weeks NOA conference thing has been lifted, Gamespot have put up a video of the Nintendo rep playing Galaxy: http://uk.gamespot.com/video/915692/6181056/super-mario-galaxy-video-feature-2

Gameplay footage and trailer combined in one video: I had forgotton the embargo on all the gaes at the NOA conference was lifted today/tonight

I really wish they had put more storage space on the Wii in the first place then. Whats the chances of a new SKU Wii with more memory?

She expects you all to delete the VC games and wii ware titles you're not currently using/playing frequently to make space for whatever new title you want. Then re-download those titles when you want to play them again (they don't charge you to redownload games you've already brought) I guess its an answer but a lot of people would like to be able to have everything they've brought at the touch of a button. They could let you to use an external hard drive via the USB sockets at the back OR just let you use the data straight of the SD memory cards without having to upload it onto the Wii's memory like you have to right now. I think those changes could be added via firmware.

12 players online! http://kotaku.com/gaming/mario-kart-wii/mario-kart-wiis-got-12+player-online-racing-310009.php

gamepro have their impressions and a cool video of them playing, you can see Peachs Final smash and Bowsers (Giga bower) http://www.gamepro.com/nintendo/wii/games/previews/139928.shtml Gamespot have a 10 minute long video with a Nintendo rep playing and talking about the game. http://uk.gamespot.com/video/928518/6180868/super-smash-bros-brawl-nintendo-media-summit-2007-demo-1 The rep mentions in that video that theAnimal crossing stage will be tied to your Wii's interneral clock - Play that stage at midnight and it will be midnight in the level, I wonder if its tied to the time of year for different seasons? Imaging playing that stage on Christmas day so its covered in snow. Also: The Nintendo rep mentions that that after you pick up a final smash it can be beaten out of you before you use it.

Hands on at IGN: http://uk.wii.ign.com/articles/826/826602p1.html Also: oh man!

From IGN at the NOA conference: No pictures yet, I think this title is embargoed until Monday (what the hell for?) Edit, theirs a shot of one of the Nintendo reps using the gun

is the NOA conference today aswell?

I don't think it spoils anything really. Also I'm pretty sure its not the full intro.

Galaxy is going to be at E for All:

Smash brothers brawl will be at the E for all http://gonintendo.com/?p=26847

So I've been playing through some of my gamecube games and I've found myself re-addicted to PSO Episode 3 again. Did anyone here at N-europe buy it? What did you think of it and did you ever get online? I remember seeing next to nobody on the EU servers back when this game came out which was really disappointing (the Japanese and US servers has thousands though). Sadly now the servers have been taken offline so its all offline play only now. I've been playing through the story mode and just finished the Hunters story and am now going through ARKz (which I'm finding really hard since I never could get used to playing as ARKz). I really really liked this game among all my gamecube titles. I was already a PSO fan but I thought when they announced its sequel would be a turn based card game that...it would be terrible. But I ended up buying it anyway and found out it had much more in common with advance wars then a true card game and online was pretty decent. The music is brilliant too.

I hoping we get all three because of the 'my music' feature' but I think at the very least the American copys of Brawl will have all three since they usually keep the Japanese langage option in. I think the song linked in Redshells post is my favourtie of the three though.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b0llsb77Esc I don't know if Sonic 1 on Sonic Jam or Mega collection was at 60Hz but for some reason the PAL version sounds wrong to me now.

It's a real shame it isnt. Does anyone know if it's possible for Nintendo to make Wii multi region via a firmware update?

He's talking about Portugal I think =)

Yeah same here, I could do all the missions and the game would tell me to go to the helipad but when I got their the game told me I was missing 1 Egg and to go find it. I never found it on my own so a few years ago I checked a guide...I couldn’t believe that last egg was hidden in an area where you had to walk through tree's which are completely solid normally. As for the ending...you really didnt miss much other then the worse ending in video game history =p
