Posted December 4, 2006 Thread Suggested by UltraJamie ITV news will be doing a special feature on the Wii. I have no idea when they will be showing it. (whether its at the beginning of the show or at the end) So, one to watch out for. I'll be tuning in. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted December 4, 2006 my hopes suddenly aren;t high... they introduced it as "space invaders it isn't" Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted December 4, 2006 I did try to post this but for some reason couldn't so I stuck it in the general discussion thread (naughty I know). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted December 4, 2006 I dunno, i remain hopeful. They opened with that sentence, and then cut to people playing the Wii, and a voice over saying "why Nintendo hopes to change gaming (i think thats what it said)" Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted December 4, 2006 we'll see..... it's amazing coverage... don't recall seeing 360 on itv news during it's launch week. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted December 4, 2006 It hasn't been on yet. It should be on any minute now. And, btw, i originally posted this as channel 4, but have since edited it to ITV, as a mistake was made. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted December 4, 2006 I think they showed it off in a good light. Especially the demo of Wii Tennis with Pat Cash and that reporter bloke. Did anyone else laugh when the newswoman said "Wiiiiii"? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted December 4, 2006 Was it just me or did I hear that presenter say that Wii is trailing behind Ps3 and 360? I know 360 is miles ahead for obvious reasons but PS3, what the fuck? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted December 4, 2006 I thought it made it look very good. They seemed to think it was more a fitness machine than videogames, but to see the Wii on ITV really is something. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted December 4, 2006 Yeah, they did slip up in some places. Also, when they said it was expensive, but i think that was just for humour. Overall, i think they did pretty well. It wasn't half as bad as i thought it was going to be. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted December 4, 2006 Nice to see that they reckon it's gonna sell loads :P Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted December 4, 2006 Yeah, I just caught it when the presenter and the other guy was playing Tennis, it was pretty decent. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted December 4, 2006 That was about as positive as a UK News Channel mentioning a Nintendo console is going to be. Good stuff. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted December 4, 2006 Yeh my mum and I just watched it and my mum said, " I'm actually excited about this Wii thing, can't wait to play bowling." lol fuck off. Its mine bitch. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted December 4, 2006 Was it just me or did I hear that presenter say that Wii is trailing behind Ps3 and 360? I know 360 is miles ahead for obvious reasons but PS3, what the fuck? No she just said 'sonys playstation' I thought it made it look very good. They seemed to think it was more a fitness machine than videogames, but to see the Wii on ITV really is something. yeah... they made out that the whole point was to get people moving... the point is to do something different. Nice to see that they reckon it's gonna sell loads :P what is this? hear what you want on the news? they said it remains to be seen if it will sell well over here - which is true because it's not out, but also false, because on preorders alone it's sold out Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
