Wiifolder doing a great 'video tour' as usual

IGN have a short new trailer up, reveals 3 more characters: http://wii.ign.com/dor/objects/14305526/tmnt-fighters/videos/tmntsmashwii_trli_vignette1_62409.html no idea what that robot thing is, I'm guessing its from the recent cartoon series?

Play.com have some Wii games going for £9.99 (Zack and Wiki, Wii music and Order up seem to be the best of the lot. Dewys adventure is going for 6.99) http://www.play.com/Games/Wii/3-/365372/2-/Promo.html

I'm pretty sure they said they'll be more characters on the roster that they'll reveal over the next few months.

Few video's I'd not seen before:

he speaks a little on NSMB Wii, Metroid M and Zelda Wii motion

weird, I was thinking about making this thread, I've been playing on this server for a while now and really enjoying it. I actually think it has a better comunity then the Gamecube PSO. Right now I have just one character, a RAcast level 147, so I'll gladly meet up

I know we don't get to play this in Europe for a long time, but I thought I'd post this anyway:Its a tour of the Firehouse in the Wii version.

Yeah I'll do that. i can copy most of my save files to an SD card apart from Mario Kart and Smash brothers Brawl. And save my Mii's to the Wiimote memory. I'm guessing whether the data gets whiped depends on why the Wii is not working. If anyone here has had their Wii fixed after a it not being able to play discs, did they keep your Wii's saves and stuff? I also concerned about all the Virtual console Wiiware games I've got.

Well, today all my Wii started giving me a Disc read error mesage with all my games. Wii sports won't make it past the Wiimote strap screen, Brawl stops after loading the intro, Mario kart let me play through mushroom cup, then got the same error message after the cup movie. Punch out Wii still works but with longer loading times before rounds. I'm guessing there's no way to fix this myself? My Wii is about a year and a half old but I can't seem to find the recipt.

IGN review is up (8.0): http://uk.ps3.ign.com/articles/992/992635p1.html

1)TMNT Smash up 2)Wii Sports Resort 3)New Super Mario Bros 4)Ghostbusters 5)Metroid Prime Trilogy

I am still looking forward to this game , because NSMB on the Wii was amazing and I loved every minute of it. It sounds like this has a dedicated single player mode, so for me, this will be a great 2D single player Mario game. However, its very unlikely I'll get many chances for me and my friends to all meet and play its multiplayer mode and the lack of online option for it is pretty disapointing. Like MCJ said, its pretty much a given for 360/PS3 games and I don't see why should be any different for the Wii. if the the game was designed for multiplayer, I don't see what would have to be changed if this game had an online mode. The only issue is communication between players, which they could use Wii speak for.

I saw those, really looking forward to this game now. Gamespot live show at E3 had the devs play the game a little for them yesterday. The Video is up now: http://e3.gamespot.com/video/6211361/?tag=top_stories;title;8

Yeah, Beat Sandman last night but lost to Title Defence Glass Joe. Eventually beat him though. Didnt have much trouble getting past Von Kaiser but got beat by Disco Kid this morning.

Koopa Kids! (well just one seen so far, I hope all of them are back)

Wii Q3 release list: Where's excitebots?

IGN have a hands on play of the game up. Very positive abuout it too. Can't wait to get this http://uk.wii.ign.com/articles/988/988459p1.html

Super Mario Kart is comming to the Japanese VC next month. I'm hoping it'll get a EU release too soon. Has there been any word of the original Smash brothers coming out on the Virtual console here?

Yeah Don Flamenco gave me trouble too. I think I lost to him and went into pratice mode to learn his moves. I beat him via TKO in the end but I'm going to go back and find a way to knock him out early if I can Aran Ryan was one of the impossible boxers for me. He was too erratic for me at first, but I learnt how to counter punch him and get stars which now makes the level go like clockwork lol

GiantBomb put up a great 'quick view' of the game: http://www.giantbomb.com/quick-look-boom-blox-bash-party/17-704/ I hadn't really payed any attention to this game until now, but the guys in this video sound like they are having so much fun playing it I think I'll try and pick this game up

Got my copy today too,its great! Just made it to the last guy on the World circuit, he seems impossible to beat right now lol
