Wii2 might indeed have a BluRay drive...making it already one generation behind, lol. But it would be a nice upgrade from the DVDs and dual-layer discs they're using at the moment.
Yeah I dont expect to see WiiToo or whatever (hope its a better name TBQH) until holiday 2012.
(2011 is likely the year of the 3ds and none of the console makers will want a new system when they're just now releasing stuff late this year (MS/Sony motion stuff) and 3ds for Ninty late this year or early next year.)
Guessing ~$199 US. If they're waiting till September to announce hardware releases, then it probably isn't coming out this year. But I guess it'd still be possible.
If Nintendo made the Wii region-free. And kept all future hardware region-free. I swear that this will keep piracy down, especially amongst people who would buy a legit copy if they had the chance.
I know the issue here is about the DS, which is in fact, region-free, but I'm raising a point here about how Nintendo likes to take total control (understandable) but if they do too much, it will only hurt themselves. I myself import games when I have to, but if I want an import game and my system won't let me, I would find a way, whether they like it or not. (Note that I haven't done so at this point.)
So if no one gets to see it, then it might as well not exist for how much good it does us. Wonder why its so secretive, could make the series more interesting.
I barely finished AAI. If Ace Attorney is going down that route, then please, keep it finished. But if we can go back to the awesomeness of Trials and Tribulations and Apollo Justice (I prefer PW over AJ) then please do after Ghost Trick.
Im good waiting through 2011, whenever makes it as perfect as possible. Cuz E3 didnt sell me on it. I do however want the 3DS ASAP. Leik naow pleese kthksbai.
Toribash could be cool, but if theres a free PC version....um yeah.
And I dont get why everyone still gets upset each week we don't have VC or Shantae. It sucks, but it's been like this for weeks and months. Get over it.
I'm enjoying this quite a bit. Hopefully the later levels don't become too frustrating but I loved the first 6 songs I played today. Yay for free stuff, but yay for good free stuff. So far I agree with the 8/10.
Release during holidays=Nintendo and everyone wins Release after holidays, since we have a great Wii and DS lineup then anyway=Nintendo and everyone wins
The US only got the MSX Metal Gears in a special edition of MGS3...I think that bringing those to VC wouldn't be too out of place or too much to ask for.
As for me, I'm downloading my free copy of Groovin' Blocks...
@Mastergraveheart-you realize that once its been submitted to Nintendo, it will still be several weeks after that, as Nintendo does whatever evaluation and/or bug check? And then sometimes delays the game for no reason. See the history of WW/VC releases.
Great story, fun combat, but something held me back from fully liking it, maybe the dual-nature of the combat was distracting, so I'd prolly give it an 8.

Re: Review: Nanostray (DS)
Nice review.
Kinda curious what Corbie's opinion of the game is.

Re: Monsters Smash Robots in Monsteca Corral from August 16th
Looks interesting, but I'll wait for the trusty NL review, as usual.
Re: Ivy the Kiwi?
I love me my contests. XD
Re: Last Story's Website Gets Updated With Info & Screenshots
FFXII? Please don't be ANYTHING like that game.

Re: Get Ready for a Story Mode Full of New Pokemon in Black & White
Boy I sure hope the other new monster designs are better than the ones I've seen so far. Otherwise, its gonna be a looong way to the finish.

Damn, there goes her being useful.
Re: Dirk Dares to Conquer Wii with Dragon's Lair Trilogy
Friend of mine has these and god, they seem punishing especially Space Ace. Fun to watch, not so fun to play.
Re: Japanese Virtual Console list - August 2010
Clock Tower please. With translation.
Re: 3DS Release Date and Price Will be Revealed in September
Full-price games will probably be USD $39-45.
Re: 3DS Release Date and Price Will be Revealed in September

Re: First Impressions: Golden Sun: Dark Dawn
Definately plan on getting this.
Re: MundoRare Shuts Down After Losing Faith in Rare's New Direction
Hey, I liked Adventures. A lot. lol
But i know that one has split opions...kinda like most Starfox games actually
Re: High Court Outlaws Flash Carts in UK
You know what would be better than all this fuss?

Re: MundoRare Shuts Down After Losing Faith in Rare's New Direction
Rare died in 2002, as far as I'm concerned. After that, mediocrity was the highest they ever made it to.
Re: Nintendo Download: 30th July 2010 (Europe)
Uggggggh. Blah.
Re: Heavy Fire Rains Down on WiiWare on Monday
Hope its decent, as I like me my rail-shooters. And I like that pricepoint.
Re: Review: Furry Legends (WiiWare)
Thanks for the review. Will prolly go with Jett Rocket instead.
Re: European Professor Layton Movie Bundle is Big and Mysterious
NA bundle please. Although I doubt I'll have the moolah to splurge on said SUPAH EDITION.
Re: Jett Rocket's Return May Not be in Platform Form
I'm all for each episode doing different stuff but that doesnt necessarily mean they need to change genres! lol
Re: Yes, There Really Is a Zelda Master Timeline Document
So if no one gets to see it, then it might as well not exist for how much good it does us. Wonder why its so secretive, could make the series more interesting.
Re: Nintendo Download: 19th July 2010 (North America)
What's this "Virtual Console" everybody is mentioning? When did we get those??
Re: Shu Takumi Talks Ghost Trick, Ace Attorney
I barely finished AAI. If Ace Attorney is going down that route, then please, keep it finished. But if we can go back to the awesomeness of Trials and Tribulations and Apollo Justice (I prefer PW over AJ) then please do after Ghost Trick.
Re: Skyward Sword Swinging For Early 2011 Release
Im good waiting through 2011, whenever makes it as perfect as possible. Cuz E3 didnt sell me on it. I do however want the 3DS ASAP.
Leik naow pleese kthksbai.
Re: Last Window Coming to Europe in September
I'll import this if I have to.
Wish I could say the same about Trace Memory Wii.
Re: Nintendo Download: 12th July (North America)
Toribash could be cool, but if theres a free PC version....um yeah.
And I dont get why everyone still gets upset each week we don't have VC or Shantae. It sucks, but it's been like this for weeks and months. Get over it.
Re: Review: Dragon Quest IX: Sentinels of the Starry Skies (DS)
Oh wow. I wasn't planning on getting this but now I might, in a month or two.
Re: The Last Story Gets Incredible First Trailer
Yeah, I'm sorry, but it DOES look like Gears of War+Monster Hunter Tri+RPG. I'll pray that it will be good anyway.
Re: Nintendo Download: 13th & 14th July 2010 (Japan)
@MIckeymac-You realize if we got a Wiiware drought, we then wouldn't get jack ^%$#.
Re: Aussie Child Uses DS to Save Mother's Bacon
I use mine as a light sometimes too. But I keep it in the "what game are we playing today, Master Bruce?" mode to do so. Cuz it's white and bright.

This.
Re: Download Versions of Ivy the Kiwi? Rated by ESRB
I'll do a compare and contrast to see which version is right for me.
Re: Nintendo Download: 5th July 2010 (North America)
Pearl Harbor is a possibility.
And yeah, I also got my hopes up that Vampires meant Last Flight. Is that EVER coming out?
Re: Arc Rise Fantasia's NA Release Rolls Back to July
I was looking forward to this until I saw a video of the English version. Worst dub ever. And the combat doesn't look like anything special, either.
Re: And Here's Your 2010 Club Nintendo Awards, North America
Owch, I was 150 short of Platinum...and once again, Gold is supremely lame.
Re: Review: Groovin' Blocks (WiiWare)
I'm enjoying this quite a bit. Hopefully the later levels don't become too frustrating but I loved the first 6 songs I played today. Yay for free stuff, but yay for good free stuff. So far I agree with the 8/10.
Re: Groovin' Blocks
I was really impressed with this. Got it for free and have played the first 6+ songs so far and really like the gameplay.
Re: Win One of 100 Digital Copies of Groovin' Blocks
Just downloaded my copy. WIll update somewhere with thoughts.
Re: Reggie's 3DS Date Confirmation May Have Been a Mistake

Re: Triple Trouble in this New Pokemon Black & White Trailer
Okay that's just ridiculous. Also, the sprites look awful when the camera zooms in. HD art would've been nice.

Expected. Understandable. Real release date please. (March?)
Re: Tales of Bearsworth Manor Additional Content
I like how one comment says 41 and another says 61. I got 51, so someone's math is wrong. I'm too lazy to double-check though.
Re: Murder, Death, Kill Again as MDK2 Comes to WiiWare
A straight port? Interesting.
Re: Win One of 100 Digital Copies of Groovin' Blocks
I gots me a copy waiting.
And I got said confirmation email RIGHT AWAY. looks like they like me better
