Link: Evil Avatar UPDATE: from a comment in the Evil Avatar thread I linked: For everyone freaking out over there being only 6 launch titles. The list comes from a response to a letter in the pulse section of Nintendo power. Here is the relevant text: "Nintendo hasn't released an official list yet, but the […]
Could the Wii get an IM service called !!M?
Link: IGN Wii Nintendo registered some new trademarks this week, including this interesting name. !!M: Could this be something to do with the messaging service patent? How the heck are we supposed to pronounce that? This rumor is flying around the Nintendo blogosphere with absolutely no information whatsoever to back it up. But it’s a […]
Take-Two taking ‘strong look’ at Wii
Link: Next Generation "The positive [aspect] for us is that we haven't been a big player in the Nintendo platform," said Eibeler.

Wii virtual console games between $5 to $10
Link: Ars Technica Sounds like a fair price to me. Especially when compared to how Microsoft is handling things on their Xbox Live Marketplace/Arcade service: Retro gaming may prove to be a big boon for Nintendo.

ATI: Wii Graphics at E3 “Tip of the iceberg”
Link: Evil Avatar Despite Nintendo's stellar E3 showing with their playing = believing tagline, ATI is honor-bound to combat some of the negative response to the Wii's sub-(next-generation)-par graphics. Since, you know, it's their chipset. However, seeing what Resident Evil 4 accomplished on the GameCube, I have no doubt in my mind that there is […]
Nintendo Wii Price Not to Exceed $250
Link: Evil Avatar I’m all for cheap consoles. In fact, not only am I for them, I’m exclusively for them. I have neither the funds nor the time to support expensive habits. I want my entertainment cheap and quick. So hearing that the Wii will not cost more than $250, is good news. Even better […]
