It's Wii Sports. Nintendo has made a few billion boxes and wants to go through their stocks, also when in the future Wii Sports might be replaced.

 

If it wasn't Wii Sports, this would be the proof that Wii Sports wouldn't be included wouldn't it?

Dont quote me on this but im sure that someone said that it would come with a disk with updated firmware on it because they have a new version already.

 

That would be most logical explanation.

I don't think that its necessary to include Wii Sports on that list when there is huge stcker "includes Wii Sports" on the front. Plus it's possible that Wii Sports will be replaced later with another title. :)

The start-up disc is a little demo-disc on how to use the Wii-mote and Nunchuk. Because the Wii is the polar opposite from traditional gaming systems, Nintendo want to teach (for want of a better word) people how to use this new system.

 

The disc will contain a mild demo on calibrating the remote to the player's television, to the player's own movement patterns and introduce the player to the new way to play.

Nintendo last month revealed that its new Wii home console would ship with composite cables for standard resolution televisions. However, the company did not specify whether or not high-definition TV owners would be able to separately purchase Wii component cables to run games in progressive-scan, and hence we've been bombarded with a steady flow of questions from concerned readers.

 

Well, today you can finally stop flooding our e-mail boxes because Nintendo of America has commented on the subject and yes, your component cables are on the way.

 

A spokesperson for the company told IGN Wii this morning that the Wii component cables would be available for purchase with the launch of the console in November. The cables will cost $29.99 and will only be available through online retail outlets, including Nintendo's store, Best Buy, Circuit City and EB Games.

 

If you already own GameCube component cables, you're out of luck because these are not compatible with the Wii console.

 

Why Nintendo is again only selling its component cables via online retailers -- as it did with GameCube -- is a mystery, but at least the solution will be available immediately.

 

Nearly all of the 30 or so Wii launch window games run in 480p and 16:9 modes.
