Sheesh don't the Japanese have it easy. They could but 50 words on a gravestone and only pay for like 8 (in english words).

 

Do I make sense?

Yet, "Watashi wa" merely means "I"

 

OHHHH

 

the translation is:

 

Atarashii Rimokon

 

The n at the end looks too much like so

I hope there are boards put up around Europe. Nintendo need to go all out this time.

 

:D

 

That thing at the start must be the Wii start up noise...It sucks.

If its real, I hope Nintendo's advertising department here is a billion times better.

Doesn't work for me but hopefully it does for the Japanese. Very short advert, as if it's sponsoring something like the DS ads in the UK.

Sorry if this has been posted/discussed before:

 

Xfire on Wii?

 

"We are in talks with one other console maker," Cassidy said, a likely reference to Nintendo, which is set to launch the Wii in the US two days after Sony releases the PS3. The only other console maker of note, Microsoft, has built its own Xbox Live service from the ground up and has announced its own cross-platform plans to integrate it with cell phones and PCs with Live Anywhere.

 

As most of you guys already know, Xfire is that messaging service that can send and receive messages within games, and see what games the contacts are playing - a perfect fit for what Nintendo said Wii users can see on their friends lists.

This sounds good. :) If this is true, then Nintendo are clearly pulling out the stops in online multiplayer (even if the launch titles don't have it).

It's definitely like this:

私は

Where 私 means 'I'.

 

But anyway, I can't believe we've only got some 50 days to go before Wii comes out. Not long ago everything was a mystery and it felt like it'd be forever before Nintendo would release their new console. And about a month to go till US release? Sheeesh...

Wow I didn't know you could send e-mail. That's pretty awesome, especially if it works with computers.

I don't think its email, but just messages to other Wii users...

 

Those screens look pretty good. I wonder what you will see when you bring your Wii up out of stand by, hopefully there wont be a loading screen and you'll go straight into the Wii Channels.

The more of Wii I see, the more I want... Those menus look very clean and simple. Now we need to see more screens of the menus behind those menus.
