The livewire feed seems about 5 minutes behind, at least for me. The official Nintendo source didn't go anywhere.

Nice conference for comparison graphics ...
And thanks Nintendo, for a proper presentation. It's not as exciting as some others that Nintendo did earlier, but it's at least well presented and professional. Now comes the wiimotionplus, me like. Sexist bunch. How I wish the other consoles get wiimotionplus ... this is good stuff, but needs better graphics Last edited by Arwin; 15-Jul-2008 at 17:55. |

Wii Music or as I like to call it Wii How to Annoy Your Neighbours.

if this is it then nintendo got all the money from me they were going to get when i bought wii fit .
Honestly , this console is leaving the hardcore gamers behind and it seems that the ds is doing a pretty good job of leaving us behind also. Hopefully the 3rd party devs pick up the slack . |

Maybe I missed it. Did they say what they were planning on doing to address the memory/storage problem on the Wii?

So, how does Wii Speak work? Is it a mic that plugs into the console?
Did they show any pics/vids of GTA on the DS, or did they simply announce the name? The motion thing sounds good, and I'm glad it's bundled with a game as I was hoping. It should be heavily adopted, which will make 3rd parties take more interest, or at least allow Nintendo to release games that are designed ground up for it. |

Anyway, Wii Music might be a real smash hit with the casuals, it looks easy to pick up, fun, and it's game to play with a few friends (plus some community features)...

Summing up, apart from Wii Music and WiiMotionPlus pretty much a boring presentation and not much news here.
