Wii are confused

[bremen_]

So I am not sure if its true but seems like the Wii will be released on Nov 19 for $250. However, its 25000 yen which means it may actually be $200 and the release date in Japan is Dec 2 which confuses me. The main thing that disappoints me is no Zelda at launch. Fuck that! I don't even know when Metroid is coming. Rumors have Zelda at

Well I hate Sports games too, but Wii Sports isn't really so much a Sports game as a demonstration of the uses of the Wii-mote in a universally familiar package. There's nothing technical about it, you just swing like you are swinging a bat, or a tennis racket...

And Zelda is a launch title along with Metroid. Super Mario Galaxy and Wario Ware were the previous launch titles that were pushed back.

And I'm PRAYING for a $200 price tag. $250 would mean one less game I could get that month.

I know, but this way I don't gotta pick and choose.

Good point. I want so much, but really couldn't afford it all at once.

Thank god Zelda is officially a launch title, but unfortunately Metroid is pushed back to 2007. :(

I know, wtf...? And it only comes in white at launch...

Well I am a total racist so that's perfect for me.

(If anyone thinks I am that much of an ass or serious about that, please go away)

Japan should get yellow Wii's. :D

I wouldn't be able to deal with another Zelda delay. Enough is enough man :) I remember Toys R us had this MASSIVE banner saying "Pre order your copy of the new Zelda for the spring!" around last xmas. That game better be killer too - when you delay things like this people build up pretty big expectations.

Yea, I am reserving all my stuff on Saturday if they are taking orders.
