Owen Posted September 7, 2006 Share Posted September 7, 2006 NoE: blah blah blah marketing blah blah blah touch generations blah blah blah we can't afford to hire some extra translators to get the games out quicker even though we charge around twice as much as other regions (give or take value added tax) Enough said.. don't get your hopes up. Hate to agree (because i want launch details) but theres NO-WAY IN HELL, i'm getting my hopes up anymore! I understand Nintendo has said they will talk about the Wii but it could be just announcing new games etc... I'm getting ready to hear 'We will tell you the price and launch date, at a later time'. If they say that, it's goodbye to a 2006 European launch! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fex Posted September 7, 2006 Share Posted September 7, 2006 (edited) Hmm i seem to remember Nintendo talking about that they wasn't interested in a world wided release!! I hope thats not true, because they really need to get the Wii out over here ASAP. Nintendo don't screw this over!

Yoochem Posted September 7, 2006 Share Posted September 7, 2006 I've found something interesting here. It's supposed to be the speech of 'the Reginnator' on sept. 14th. 99% chance of it being fake, but nevertheless still interesting. If only half of it would be true, though, it would be awesome :P Well, just check this link and see for yourself: http://www.wii60.com/forum/showthread.php?t=5137 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Retro_Link Posted September 7, 2006 Share Posted September 7, 2006 Hopefully we'll get official trailers for the launch games; Zelda, Metroid, Excitetruck etc... they should be no more than 2 months away! Launch date and pricing has got to be announced soon! Some new game announcements and updates on all the other titles; Mario, SSBB etc... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

killthenet Posted September 11, 2006 Share Posted September 11, 2006 Well, I'm fairly confident that we'll get launch details this week. There's a lot of evidence pointing towards it. The 3 seperate press events for the 3 seperate territories; Iwata's daily "How we made the Wii" reports on the Japanese Nintendo site, which presumably finish on Thursday... and the lack of sand that's left in the metaphorical timer. You may aswell get your hopes up. Or else we'll get them up for you! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pestneb Posted September 12, 2006 Share Posted September 12, 2006 New York event is 10am-4pm local time and London one is 12pm-6pm local time so from a UK point of view Thursday 2pm-8pm (US) Friday 12pm-6pm (UK) with Japan some point between Wednesday 1500 and Thursday 1400 are those times a range of the time they can start, or will they both be 6 hours long???

Ashley Posted September 12, 2006 Share Posted September 12, 2006 Wait so what time is the UK conference on Friday? Cause I got work at 1. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mike-zim Posted September 12, 2006 Share Posted September 12, 2006 15:00 in the uk as 10:00 add 5 hours is 15:00. so it ties in nicely imo. thursday 3pm - 9pm then we get a good nights sleep and Friday 12:00 to 18:00 we find out what it all means in Europe. excellent.

Pestneb Posted September 12, 2006 Share Posted September 12, 2006 just checked that link above, apparently NY has daylight saving? so it'll actually be 1400, not 1500 "Daylight Saving Time is in effect on this date/time in America/New_York Daylight Saving Time is not in effect on this date/time in GMT " ofcourse that relies on that website being reliable Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
