This has got to be the longest "daddy or chips" argument in the history of arguments...

I don't even get it - this is, after all, "The Official Nintendo Fanboy's Smugness and Gloating Thread", isn't it?

Perhaps all those uncomfortable with this should start "The Objective Discussion About Nintendo's Marketing Strategies Thread" - the rest of us can carry on being smug and gloaty

Ah so you just want a giant thread where nothing negative is ever said
about Nintendo?

I certainly don't. I want one just like this one, except where people don't bicker when they see things differently

Heroes looks stupidly stylish, but yeah, I second the 'unbelievably awful voice acting' sentiment.

To those seemingly upset with the price:

dont get one.

ps. Mines bigger than yours.

Okay, lets all agree that some people will buy the Wii at the currently stated price point and others won't and will not doubt get a 360/PS3 instead

I rather like it - reminds me of badly dubbed japanese anime i was used to watch on children's tv as a kid

The brief glimpse of Kororinpa (Hudson) on Namor7's link looked promising. Anyone know any more about it?

And just to be REALLY bloody awkward, I'm not doing either.

I'll get a Wii when a game is released for it that really grabs my attention - Zelda is tempting but I'm a bit of a gaming Luddite and prefer Zelda in 2D ....... Mario Galaxy looks like a potential winner though so that may well cause me to part with some dosh ..... and who knows, something else may pop up that does the trick.

Not just an overdraft for the PS3 deposit but also for the games

Took a few screen grabs of Heroes:

Just like Killer7, this looks like it'll be super slick while at the same time being incredibly strange and exceptionally camp.

Can't wait!

A fine example of art direction over horsepower. That looks cool, regardless of the system it's on, no?

That looks fantastic - just artistic. Very nice.

MS thinks about "import area" on xbox live where other regions can get access to asia specific titles.

Let's hope Ninty follow their lead...
