11/19/06 - Dawn of a New Day

[Marik]

Literally, it's dawn, I was up all night. No more Majora's Mask puns after today's.

At E3 2004, Iwata-san announced that it's next generation console, the Revolution will be unvieled at E3 2005. Also at that E3, A new Legend of Zelda game was announced.

At E3 2005, we saw the console and learned of the Virtual Console.

Tokyo Game Show 2005, the controller was unvieled. A motion sensing controller.

A week before E3 2006, Nintendo announced that it's console codenamed Revolution was to be renamed Wii

E3 2006, after the delay of the GameCube masterpiece, the Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess, we learned why it was delayed, it was remade as a Wii game.

September, Nintendo announces that Wii will launch on November 19th, 2006 for the price of $249.99.

Well, it's November 19th, 2006. The wait of two huge things in my life ended at midnight. And the annicipation ends now, no more build up, to more hype............ It is here.

I am tired, but I'm still excited. Twilight is starting off slow in the village, So I cannot tell you of anything on that, but I'll say, WiiSports is great. The Gameplay hits the mark and the controller left me shaking, not from its rumble, but from the sheer awe that what it can do.

I will say this, Red Steel isn't doing it justice, I'm doing one more playthrough and if it's felt the same, I am getting rid of it.

Thank you all who read all my Wii news and updates. I will keep everyone posted on future games and hell, the console after Wii.

And on Non Nintendo news, the Burger King Xbox/Xbox 360 games release today.

I am so sorry about the lack of content this post should have, but when I get through Twilight, I'm posting a review on the Wii board. I am justtoo tired and happy.... I will end of like this. I have a T-Shirt made by Nintnedo with Reggie in Bruce Lee's body holding a Wiimote and it's the best piece of clothing I own

I have to wait for the next shipment of Wii's to come in, they are getting 10 in and I was #11 on the list . So how is wii sports golf? Ign
said it wasn't that great but I would still like to know. Also, how are the Miis?

[Marik]

Miis are cool to have, but they're nothing special. Somewhere Nintendo must be using them to some use. WiiGolf is alright, very hard to control power though.

You shouldn't have to wait long, a second shipment is due this week.

This is going to sound like a dumb question, but what's a "Mii"? A memory card?

[Marik]

Mii is a virtual avatar(Character) you create for your console, You can have hundreds od Miis in one system. THat character represents you in games like WiiSports. I wrote more on it in the Wii thread.
