Race Driver: Create & Race seems rather neat. Also, it has a quite dull name.

Ten minutes ago, I was in a very shitty mood. Thank you, Nintendo.

Monster Hunter 3 will be coming to the Wii - now if that had online chat and co-op that could be interesting.

A racing game on the DS which doesn't suck and isn't Mario Kart, you say?

Owp! Blue glowing Wii reveals a new update - one for the menu and one for the Everybody Votes channel. It says the update adds USB keyboard compatibility, even though that was present from the last update. So I don't really know what this new update does. Break modchips, probably. :)

EDIT: Ah, in the Shopping Channel it says that the updates allow you to use a USB keyboard with the Internet Channel and the Everybody Votes Channel (after updating those channels too). Handy for the Internet Channel, Everybody Votes... possibly not so handy.

My Everybody Votes channel has been b0rked since the Wii was fixed.
Emailed Ninty about the issue three times with no response on any occasion.
Maybe this update will fix the issue...

That's about £37! Hope we see it at that price here but based on that I'd guess £49.99.

Which wouldn't be too bad.

Shame for them that they missed the Christmas scrum for Wii Fit - that would have shifted shed loads (had they had any Wiis on the shelf in the first place)

Maybe it's better to get it after the Christmas 'eat as much as you can' season.

Is that 12/1 as in the 12th of January, or 12/1 as in the 1st of December American style?
