Owen Posted May 23, 2006 Posted May 23, 2006 Dunno if it's region free,but I highly doubt it will be december,would be a stupid move. It's pretty obvious Nintendo was going to release the Wii in November, around the sametime as the PS3, which they didn't want or know till E3. They obviously had to make a quick decision to hold back all release details and price, after Sony announced theres. Now they know exactly what the competitors price is and date. If i was a business i would release it EARLIER and at a fraction of what the PS3 costs! Sure fire winner if you ask me! I believe Nintendo know that whatever the price the PS3 is, there some extremely hardcore Sony fans out there! Actually i hate to say it, but theres loads, frankly. It will still sell-out launch-day and sell well, it may take sometime to show it's true potential but when it does, it will be a big seller for Sony again! It has to be released September Japan, October for USA and Europe. Surely they can do this? EDIT: Could be November 3rd 2006 for Europe, no later!!
mike-zim Posted May 23, 2006 Posted May 23, 2006 Friday 13th November 2006. that would be the best friday the 13th ever!!!!!!
Stocka Posted May 23, 2006 Posted May 23, 2006 Hope it's true ,then I can get it earlier Well done pardner
Guest Stefkov Posted May 23, 2006 Posted May 23, 2006 or how about a global release??? thin it was perrin(?) who had the interview with matt from ign and said theyre hoping for a global launch, one in October would be glorious. as long as its in this year ill be happy. early september would be good cos i would probaly be off and wont start college for a couple weeks, but i might start september first, so ifits any later than september then thats fine, just means i have to wait longer:(
Girly hiyaz!~ Gamer Posted May 23, 2006 Posted May 23, 2006 I'm going to stick with my prediction that UK and EU won't get it untill atleast next May.
Tellyn Posted May 23, 2006 Posted May 23, 2006 Check the OFFICIAL Nintendo website, one of the animation links shows the Wii then in a cloud, '2006'. They wouldn't have deceived us for this long.
Gaijin von Snikbah Posted May 23, 2006 Posted May 23, 2006 I believe in the global launch! Beliiieeevvee!
Towers Posted May 23, 2006 Posted May 23, 2006 Not later than November.. Atleast that's what I'm hoping
Fresh Posted May 23, 2006 Posted May 23, 2006 Hope it's true ,then I can get it earlier Go captain obvious go!
Guest Stefkov Posted May 23, 2006 Posted May 23, 2006 how about October 18th, anyone know anything else that came out then?go here if you dont know those spoiler tags dont work?
conzer16 Posted May 23, 2006 Posted May 23, 2006 If NES came out on 18th October i dont see why the Wii cant! Although I like that 31August date even better!
DiemetriX Posted May 23, 2006 Author Posted May 23, 2006 those spoiler tags dont work? [*spoiler= insertnameofspoiler] Spoiler text go here [/*spoiler] Remove the star
Ashley Posted May 23, 2006 Posted May 23, 2006 Coinciding with the NES release is a nice idea, but wouldn't work in Europe.
conzer16 Posted May 23, 2006 Posted May 23, 2006 f they were to consider October 18 for US due to NES release date there, could they consider July 15 in Japan? And i dont know what date it was released in Europe..... I was only 2.......and didnt get it till 1990
Goron_3 Posted May 23, 2006 Posted May 23, 2006 To be honestly, I wouldn'd mind it being released in early december, because there would be MASSIVE sales for the machine, making it the must have xmas pressie!
Yoshiking Posted May 23, 2006 Posted May 23, 2006 I think Perrin Kaplan said in that IGN video interview that they were still aiming for a global launch. But maybe that was something else.. Would be weird to contradict a previous statement like that. We can hope though.
Wolf Posted May 23, 2006 Posted May 23, 2006 October 20th! It would be perfect for my birthday (which happens to be 2 days later). Of course, anything before and slightly after the 22nd works.
SpinesN Posted May 23, 2006 Posted May 23, 2006 Actually all they (reggi) said is that we would be PLAYING it in the fourth quarter meaning they could launch it tomorrow if they wanted.
Gaijin von Snikbah Posted May 23, 2006 Posted May 23, 2006 Releasing it in December might not be the best solution. The stores could sell out, and people might look elsewhere for christmas presents. Releasing it earlier will allow more people to get the Wii for christmas.
ShadowV7 Posted May 23, 2006 Posted May 23, 2006 Releasing it in December might not be the best solution. The stores could sell out, and people might look elsewhere for christmas presents. Releasing it earlier will allow more people to get the Wii for christmas. Yea,and theire sales would be hindered because of the Xmas rush.That's why i'm pretty certain it won't be December.
king moc Posted May 23, 2006 Posted May 23, 2006 Well, Amazon have Dragon Quest listed as being out on November 17th...
conzer16 Posted May 23, 2006 Posted May 23, 2006 Well, Amazon have Dragon Quest listed as being out on November 17th... yeah!!! pity they dont have a date for the console!!!!
