That's cool. The Wii is the first new console I've looked forward to in a while. The 360 and PS3 are simply too expensive to justify.

I just can't wait to get my hands on one, I still want to know about the virtual console, they really haven't gone into depth about it yet. I like most of the titles I've seen so far, of course red steel being favored by me, along with super mario galaxy, and wii sports, etc. I still want to know if goldeneye will be available for it, or killer instinct anyone?

Ah ever resourceful and (sometimes OVER) innovative Nintendo...

I'll be jumping to the nearest store to get one of these. I have a VERY strong feeling that this console will actually get me, my parents, maybe even my grandmother, and my girlfriend playing games again. The only games any of them were really able to handle were the classics, Super Mario World being an all time favorite of everyone. The problem with recent stuff is that its all too god damn complicated to learn. Dual analog sticks REALLY SCARE TECH-IGNORANT PEOPLE.

"So basically, this stick controls allows you to move the characters eyes and this one controls its forward-backward-movement as well as sidestepping, now you need to use both sticks at the same time constantly while pressing these other buttons to aim at guys. To open a door you need to press A next to it, to fire you need to press the right firing trigger, to aim you need to hold down the left trigger and get the crosshair which you move with the stick for looking with, to slash up with your sword press B, to slash down press Y, and to beat up the guy at close range press A when you are near him."

*dumbfounded stare of what-the-bleep-did-he-just-say-and-where-is-the-Y-button?*

"okay take this remote, aim it at what you want to kill and press the trigger on it to shoot it, then move it like you would to open a door to open a door, when you press the sword button swing the remote like a sword, if you want to punch the guy in the face at close range jab the controller forward. This little doohicky in your other hand will let you move back and forth."

*confused but brave individual takes the familiar looking remote and finds it logical how to play*

I really think we have a winner in that department.

I mean I never realized how complicated a FPS nowadays was until I tried to explain to my girlfriend how to play James Bond, she now hates it just because it's so hard to do anything. She can't be bothered to learn nonsensical controls, games are a past time like movies that are fun sometimes but aren't always.

All Nintendo needs right now is a Nintendogs accessible game for everyone and this console could make inroads in places I'd never expect.

That will make Nintendo the winner this Christmas. I assume there will be a Mario title at launch?

MeanDrLily

I can 100% guarantee that there will be a Mario title at launch.
