Another review to pile onto Matt’s 1UP post on Twilight Princess: Game Spy gives TP 5 out of 5. If you’re worried about spoilers like I am, don’t worry with this one: “There will be no spoilers written here, but if you truly only need to know whether the game rocks hard, just take a look at the score and be safe in the knowledge that it does.” And, more on the ever-im...

All I’m going to say with this post is that Maddox, one of the most, um, outspoken and well-known Internet celebrities has endorsed the Wii, calling it Sony’s “younger, hotter sister.” That’s significant because this guy gets millions of hits, has his own book, and people — believe it or not — listen to his rants. The rest of the “endorsement” ...

For those of you who still have some concerns that the Wii version of Twilight Princess will suffer from tacked on controls that just feel “meh” considering the game was originally designed for the GameCube, 1UP has a good run-through of the game’s controls that just might cast your looming fears aside. According to the article, “For all the proclamations of doom, for all t...

Now now, TIME. You start talking like that and people are going to start calling you “Jack from Infendo.” Anyway, TIME writer Wilson Rothman took the Wii home to his family and the rest is history. And all it took was Wii Sports. “Wii Sports, a collection of cartoonish tennis, baseball, bowling, golf and boxing scenarios, comes with the system. I had presumed that it was merely a...

GameDaily reports: “Nintendo of America has confirmed to GameDaily BIZ that a DVD-enabled Wii is indeed coming to the U.S. Previous reports suggested that this may have been a Japan-only promotion… Nintendo plans to launch this version of Wii some time in the latter half of 2007.” So even the Wii will have two SKU’s. What do you think of the news?

Though they get launch prices wrong, NPR has a nice little audio report on the upcoming PS3 vs. Wii launch suggesting Sony as the underdog and what the launches mean for next-generation gaming. From the synopsis: “The PlayStation 3 and the Wii represent different strategies for achieving big holiday sales. The stakes are especially high for Sony, whose PlayStation Portable was trounced by th...

In line with Blake’s post about the way you situate your Wii, I ask where you’re putting your sensor bar? The settings menu shows you can place it above, or below your TV. Simple. To hide it below, or feature it above? You decide.

Quite possibly the largest offering of games on Nintendo systems for a single week. It’s good to be a Nintendo enthusiast. So what are you buying? And good luck finding the needed time… Nintendo Wii:– The Ant Bully– Avatar: The Last Airbender– Barnyard– Call of Duty 3– Cars– Dragon Ball Z: Budokai Tenkaichi 2– Excite Truck– The Grim Adven...

For those planning on buying a Wii, how will you set the console: Vertical (as pictured), or horizontal on its side and without the grey base?

Just an interesting little comparison of the big systems out today. As Borat would say… Game Boy Advance, very niiice. High five!

Just a snippet from the Seattle Times profile of Reggie Fils-Aime that was published over the weekend to try and get the Wii fever up and over the 108 degree mark today. Right now I’d say it’s hovering at a cool 100, and we need to start hallucinating already. As hard as Fils-Aime (pronounced Fees-uh-mey) has worked preparing North America for the Wii launch, his industry celebrity sti...
