that's pretty cool, interesting to see a return in the bundled game strategy from nintendo.

great choice too, because regardless of what game he intends to play on wii, the player will have a game to play around the controller's capabilities out of the box

Wait, does that mean there'll be a Wii dance pad at launch, too? Or am I thinking of the wrong game?

Dance Factory is also on the PS2 I believe...

On a separate note, I had no idea Codemasters is still going...

Well, since GC controllers will be useable on the Wii, whatever controller they used for DDR Mario Mix would theoretically be available then too.

True, true... but any Wii-specific ones?

I'll take a Mario Galaxy, Legend of Zelda, Sonic, SSX, and Prince of Persia.  Wrap that ****** up!  :D

That reminds me, I need to go pre-order some of this stuff.

As soon as this thing hits the stores, my bankaccount is going to SUFFER!

Relatively speaking, of course, since I just bought about €800,- on computer components, and I still have to buy the video card.

I'm one of those weirdos that don't like FPSs, but for some reason, Red Steel catches my eye. It's probably the prospect of the new controller, which will be ideal for such a game. Point and shoot - perfect. Plus - sword fights. That's the great thing about this console. All those quirky games with expensive custom controllers that cost exorbitant amounts of money are available to the masses, because now we have a custom controller for every game. Fishing, shooting, sword fighting - you name it.

There's so much there that I want to play, Sonic and the Secret Rings looks simply fabulous.  It's the control system, really.  I haven't seen home gaming systems innovate like arcades have, yet.  Being able to swing around like that might be old news for arcade gaming but it's something completely new for the home and I'm going to revel in it and at the chance to do so.

Far Cry also fascinates me, how are FPS games going to play on the Wii-mote?  Is it going to have player-emulated drunken-sailor stupourâ„¢?  It'll be interesting to try.

Of course, if they release Phoenix Wright for the Wii, my gaming life will be complete.
