Have fun!]]>Sep 14th 2006 3:41AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/09/14/more-wii-details-japan-gets-it-december-2nd/http://www.engadget.com/2006/09/14/more-wii-details-japan-gets-it-december-2nd/http://www.gamespot.com/news/6157573.html?tag=latestnews;title;1
"However, not all the news out of Japan was good. Iwata's presentation did confirm one major fear of gamers--that the Wii's "nunchaku" controller would be sold separately. The corded, directional attachment to the standard, so-called "Wiimote" controller will cost 1,800 yen (around $15), the same price as the classic-game controller, which is also sold separately. However, for a limited time, consumers who purchase a 5,000 point Wii-point card will receive a classic controller for free. The Wii comes with one standard controller, but additional "Wiimotes" will cost 3,800 yen (approx. $32) each."

Iwata confirmed that the nunchuk will be sold seperately.]]>Sep 14th 2006 3:15AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/09/14/more-wii-details-japan-gets-it-december-2nd/http://www.engadget.com/2006/09/14/more-wii-details-japan-gets-it-december-2nd/
Perhaps I'm just being cynical and predicting the worst, but I'm not expecting such a good, low price for the Wii here in the UK

But feel free to prove me wrong, Nintendo!]]>Sep 14th 2006 3:15AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/09/14/more-wii-details-japan-gets-it-december-2nd/http://www.engadget.com/2006/09/14/more-wii-details-japan-gets-it-december-2nd/

You take those prices and convert them from US$ to UK£ and there are some nice figures there:
Wii: $250 / £138 (at 1.8US$ to the UK£)

SAdly, this most likely wont happen (as bloody ever) and we'll have to fork out about £200, if not more.]]>Sep 14th 2006 4:03AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/09/14/more-wii-details-japan-gets-it-december-2nd/http://www.engadget.com/2006/09/14/more-wii-details-japan-gets-it-december-2nd/
Yeah frigging unbelievably cheap. Considering the games will probably be €60 (=$72) here in Europe, just like most Cube games are.

...that's pretty much what games cost last generation. What's so unbelievable?]]>Sep 14th 2006 4:46AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/09/14/more-wii-details-japan-gets-it-december-2nd/http://www.engadget.com/2006/09/14/more-wii-details-japan-gets-it-december-2nd/Wii: $250 / £138 (at 1.8US$ to the UK£)

Don't forget that US prices don't include tax. Slap VAT on top and you're nearer £162. I wouldn't be surprised if it ships in the UK for £199.

I just hope that they improve on the Gamecube farce where us European gamers were waiting 6-9 months for games to appear after their North American release.]]>Sep 14th 2006 4:50AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/09/14/more-wii-details-japan-gets-it-december-2nd/http://www.engadget.com/2006/09/14/more-wii-details-japan-gets-it-december-2nd/Sep 14th 2006 4:53AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/09/14/more-wii-details-japan-gets-it-december-2nd/http://www.engadget.com/2006/09/14/more-wii-details-japan-gets-it-december-2nd/Sep 14th 2006 5:13AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/09/14/more-wii-details-japan-gets-it-december-2nd/http://www.engadget.com/2006/09/14/more-wii-details-japan-gets-it-december-2nd/A standard definition tv is not capable of showing text that is only one pixel wide, it's blurry as hell (dead rising text anyone?).
So how the hell can you browse web with a standard tv? As far as I know the Wii isn't even capable of outputting a high enough resolution to show the sharp text on web pages, even if you have a HDTV.

Try plugging your computer to your old tube. Blurry!
I thought nintendo didn't require a HDTV. ]]>Sep 14th 2006 5:13AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/09/14/more-wii-details-japan-gets-it-december-2nd/http://www.engadget.com/2006/09/14/more-wii-details-japan-gets-it-december-2nd/
I personally don't like opera but if you remember
"MSN web tv" then i'm sure you'll realize that text isn't an issue.

The games are a huge rip off, $50 for a new WII title is what you'd expect, but the prices for the VC games are just too much. The VC games should be something like 50 cents to $2 max. $250 for the console is well over what I expected. The technology in it isn't worth that much.

nintendo says that it will be as powerful as an Xbox, yet you can buy an Xbox for about $100 new.]]>Sep 14th 2006 5:32AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/09/14/more-wii-details-japan-gets-it-december-2nd/http://www.engadget.com/2006/09/14/more-wii-details-japan-gets-it-december-2nd/
The Wii IS capable of component.

and... so is the PS2... Gamecube.... and first Xbox.

get ur facts straight before you post you douche. :)]]>Sep 14th 2006 6:00AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/09/14/more-wii-details-japan-gets-it-december-2nd/http://www.engadget.com/2006/09/14/more-wii-details-japan-gets-it-december-2nd/Sep 14th 2006 6:05AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/09/14/more-wii-details-japan-gets-it-december-2nd/http://www.engadget.com/2006/09/14/more-wii-details-japan-gets-it-december-2nd/
I think this is quite an awesome deal. Most NES games at the local EB are 5+ dollars, with any decent ones going 10 or more.]]>Sep 14th 2006 6:13AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/09/14/more-wii-details-japan-gets-it-december-2nd/http://www.engadget.com/2006/09/14/more-wii-details-japan-gets-it-december-2nd/http://www.discuss.com.hk/viewthread.php?tid=2311764&extra=page%3D1]]>Sep 14th 2006 6:33AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/09/14/more-wii-details-japan-gets-it-december-2nd/http://www.engadget.com/2006/09/14/more-wii-details-japan-gets-it-december-2nd/Sep 14th 2006 6:42AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/09/14/more-wii-details-japan-gets-it-december-2nd/http://www.engadget.com/2006/09/14/more-wii-details-japan-gets-it-december-2nd/Sep 14th 2006 6:50AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/09/14/more-wii-details-japan-gets-it-december-2nd/http://www.engadget.com/2006/09/14/more-wii-details-japan-gets-it-december-2nd/Sep 14th 2006 6:58AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/09/14/more-wii-details-japan-gets-it-december-2nd/http://www.engadget.com/2006/09/14/more-wii-details-japan-gets-it-december-2nd/Sep 14th 2006 7:05AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/09/14/more-wii-details-japan-gets-it-december-2nd/http://www.engadget.com/2006/09/14/more-wii-details-japan-gets-it-december-2nd/Sep 14th 2006 7:51AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/09/14/more-wii-details-japan-gets-it-december-2nd/http://www.engadget.com/2006/09/14/more-wii-details-japan-gets-it-december-2nd/Sep 14th 2006 7:55AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/09/14/more-wii-details-japan-gets-it-december-2nd/http://www.engadget.com/2006/09/14/more-wii-details-japan-gets-it-december-2nd/Sep 14th 2006 7:59AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/09/14/more-wii-details-japan-gets-it-december-2nd/http://www.engadget.com/2006/09/14/more-wii-details-japan-gets-it-december-2nd/Sep 14th 2006 8:06AM
