I think there is a bit of panic on UK boards because of this.

I dunno, like someone said earlier, it just doesn't make sense that a big conference would be held, and Iwata would fly over just to break such awful news.Chibbi Brady said:

Why the **** would they do that? I can see Europe getting it a bit later but this doesn't make any sense at all.PornstarPolly said:http://www.argos.co.uk/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/ArgosBrowseCounts?catalogId=10001&storeId=10001&categoryId=42746&languageId=-1&top=N

because the ps3 isn't out until around then they might feel it's safe to delay it i guess. would still suck for our EU brothers (and i lived in England from birth to 04 so i really feel for that market while i buy games so much cheaper than i used to pay back home).Nino said:

i never said so, but if you read what i quoted, the guy seems to think that the wii is only capable of 480i

I know, he'd be lynched if it's delayed. I honestly don't see it slipping, why would you schedule the conferences back to backin the first place?
Nintendo had a chance with me. I'll be completely up front here. I've not purchased a Nintendo console since the Super NES. I haven't felt the need to. Still, I was excited about the prospect of the Wii, I really was. I was going to run out and purchase one on launch day, but mostly because it seemed like fun, cheap entertainment. I considered it more of a toy than a typical game console. I also expected it to be priced closer to $200. $250 isn't awful, but if those component cables are not packaged with the system then it quickly becomes a $300+ investment, which is more than I'm willing to pay. They'll have priced themselves right out of a sell, probably for the entire generation, as half the fun of buying a console (for me) is getting in on the launch hype. After that, resisting a purchase is much easier.
So really Nintendo, just throw in some copper and RCA plugs and gives us a combo AV/Component cable, okay? It will cost you an additional 30 cents and be enough to ensure my purchase.

SolidSnakex posted this back in the 40s pages but no one commented on it.

I take that as meaning first party games won't even be in 480p. If that's what Nintendo is getting at, it seriously is a deal breaker for me. Even all the GC first party games were progressive scan.
I hope the wording is just stupid and they meant "high definition" as 720/1080 shit.

480p is ED. Enhanced definition. HD is 720p, 1080i and up. 480i is standard definition.perplexcity said:
that's always been the proper definition but last gen people talked about progressive scan as if it was HD when it isnt and wasn't.
Ford Prefect said:BTW, this game that everyone was asking about earlier:
...is apparently called Mr. D Goes to Town (awesome :lol), and is by "Mastiff, RED Entertainment," according to Gamespot. Also, the genre is Action.
I thought that was Katamari Damacy when I first saw it.
