Could Table Tennis be on it's way to Wii? There was reports some time ago about Rockstar and Nintendo being in close touch...I hope so.

Yep, that's what Ancel said. Should be really cool - the rabbits vids are hilarious :lol:

Looks like a lot of mad swinging of hands :)

From Spong :roll:
Namco Bandai has officially announced it will create three Wii Games during the first phase of the new Nintendo console's life-cycle, with two unannounced projects lining up behind the worryingly interesting horse-racing sim Final Furlong.

At time of press there's no word on what is to be expected, though several sources we have spoken with have mentioned Time Crisis as being a distinct possibility for Wii. Aside from being an obvious choice, it would seem that someone in PR in Japan has been making noises to journalists in the region that a Nintendo update to the beloved lightgun co-op game is in the works.

We'll let you know exactly what else Namco has in store for the Wii as soon as we find out.

Apparantly, there's another title in the works as well. ;)
Oh, and Grasshopper is making a Wii title named 'Heroes' too. Will be revealed in July.

Wii is getting a damn fine line-up. :D

The sensor bar's smaller than I thought - still with it wasn't there, though.

Nice avatar, Perkunas :wink:

I always know that when I click this thread there is a smile on the way.
From the sometimes fanboyish talk to all the drooling-inducing new info to the technical discussions and all to this Monopoly. :D

Well, all of yakyak is like this now that I read the above again :lol: :D

The third picture shows the classic controller connected to the remote via cable. I think that's better than if it was going directly to the console since there would be more cables spread on the floor. :)

Man, I'd much prefer *no wires* at all. Just put a battery in the thing. I'd even do AAs, considering the fact that I basically only have to change them once a year in my Wavebird, and 2 only cost 50 cents in Korea.

Nintendo sent George Bush a DS lite for his 60th Birthday
Nintendo Letter To Bush wrote: Happy Birthday! Don't worry, turning 60 is an exciting milestone. As you know, you've joined millions of other baby boomers in an invigorating new decade of your life. And, like many boomers, you may be looking for ways to keep your mind sharp. That's where we come in.

Please accept our gift of a new Nintendo DS Lite system and a copy of Brain Age: Train Your Brain in Minutes a Day. You now join millions of people around the world who have fun challenging themselves with Brain Age. If you have never played a video game before, don't worry. Brain Age is part of our new Touch Generations brand, which includes games that are easy for people of any age - regardless of their video game experience - to pick up and start playing immediately.

It's obvious you don't have a lot of time to play games, which makes Brain Age such a great activity for you - just a few minutes a day with more than 15 daily training tests will help keep your mind sharp. Training tests include categories like math, reading and memorization. Try it for a few days and watch your score improve

Brain Age also comes with more than 100 sudoku puzzles - these could make your next long flight on Air Force One a bit more fun! (Perhaps copies of Brain Age for journalists joining you on your next flight would be a nice distraction!)
Have fun exploring Brain Age with your Nintendo DS Lite and be sure to let us know your brain age!
Also looks like the Wii will be released in October


Analysts have reported that Nintendo has already begun production of the final retail units of its Wii console and have compared that information with the fact that Sony has yet to start retail production on PS3 consoles and Microsoft only started production 69 days before launch. Given that the PS3 will launch November 17, we can assume that Nintendo is planning an earlier release. According to analysts the most likely launch timeframe for the Wii is October with late September another, less likely, possibility. An early fall U.S. launch is not new to Nintendo as the NES launched October 18, 1985 and N64 was released September 29, 1996. In fact, only GameCube was launched in November and we all know how that worked out for the company.
