1. Never said he was...but it's not just about "this thread", it's about the many event threads that have been created and/or updated by him many times in the past, in a very professional looking, yet clean and functional, format.
2. Never said he was...but as the thread starter and the one who is updating the first post for quick and easy access to the major updates of the event(s), he's the most obvious one to thank...how the hell does it make my thanking him "wrong on so many levels"?
3. I don't care. I'm thanking him on the convenience of his first-post updates...not his opinions on them or his reactions to the opinions of others on them.
Geez...GAF is so f'ing confrontational that you can't even thank someone without someone else ready to "bear arms" and fight about it. "OMG HOW DARE YOU THANK HIM, HAVE AT YOU!"

do we know its that lo-res? with component cables, even a lowly Wii should be able to manage 720p for simple things like web browsing and photo viewing.
If not now, then I hope Nintendo offer a firmware update to do it.
And all this 'SD card photos' - what about from a computer!?

Sigh. I'm excited. But I want it now. Not Nov 19th. That's a really long distance from this moment.
I just don't want it to get washed away in Sony-BS-hype that will undobutedly be taking place at the time since they'll be "selling out" and "omghotproductfor2k6wintar". Too bad Nintendo will eat them alive in Japan..
Anyway.. Europe.. that's tomorrow? Forever.

Did anyone see the Mii Channel's demo in the US press conf video? Mii-amoto!
It looks fun and quirky. I'm really impressed.
Here's my prediction: The Mii concept will one day be evolved into a full-fledged life-sim game. Just imagine Mii + WiiConnect24 + Animal Crossing-esque game + all the realworld connected Wii Channels. It's Nintendo World!

I think Red Steel has dropped of my wish list completely now. But the trailer is quite good.

You know, after watching the presentation, I know for a fact my mum will be able to get some use out of this thing. She always wants to look on the net for stuff but doesn't like computers, and the photo displaying stuff would be used all the time.
Nintendo have some good ideas here. It may not be as feature-full as something like the 360, but the simplisity of it makes it much more inviting.

New 1UP Red Steel preview. Sounds like there's some hope for the game, though I'm still not too optimistic.

Is there a confirmed Wii US launch list?
the only thing im not really liking is the late launch. nintendo could have really capitalized by launching anything in oct but i guess they might need this time to complete everything.
oh well from the wiiconnect 24 to the channels and the new media of the games it looks amazing. i think my first day purchases are zelda, the new mario game (not galaxy), madden, and maybe red steel...depends on which is the best FPS available.

Few things:
1) Looks like I was right regarding Wii's price. I said it would be either a $300 machine or $300 after a system plus game, meaning $250. Everyone bashed and frothed at me, thinking it was going to be $100-200. Guess who is right.
2) $60 for the controllers is exploitation. Pure and simple. Nintendo is a bunch of assholes.
3) Half assed launch list = no Experiment. Nintendo botched that bastard up. I'm guessing they hope TP will be their savior. Still, a bad move on their part.
4) Region free is okay. Could be better depending on who is developing on it. Like if SNK Playmore decides to release some games in the US but not others. I'm indifferent to this news.
5) Virtual Console game prices are about right. I have no intention of downloading them but its a happy middle between unprofitably cheap and exploitingly high like its controller.

Damn straight, I'm psychic.
I highly doubt that nunchuck accessory costs Nintendo anything more than $5 at most. That controller probably costs $20-25 to make at the absolute most. Since it looks different, Nintendo can feel they can squeeze money out of consumers.
Neither. It's $250 after a system plus game. Nintendo is just choosing the game for you.The Experiment said:
Not all games require the $20 Nunchuck, and the $40 remote has more tech in it than Microsoft's $50 controller.The Experiment said:
A good launch list should have two to three wanted titles on average for each individual person. This list delivers on a lot of different taste fronts.The Experiment said:

Come on, if the 360 controller costs $50 and all it is is wireless, it's not like Nintendo's controller could be less expensive. There's a lot of shit in that thing. It's not ideal, but I can live with it.
JCX9 said:
Yeah. I'm still trying to decide what I'd get if I decide to keep my pre-order. I'm pretty on the fence now in terms of game decisions, because there's nothing at the launch that looks appealing.
I guess at worst I'd fall back on buying Red Steel if the game gets at least 8.0 scores
