[Shifty Geezer]

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

T_T Please post summary after conference.

 

[StefanS]

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

 

[AlNom]

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

They're just trying to Revolutionize Rock Band/GH.

 

[eastmen]

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 .

 

[Rockster]

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

 

[Scott_Arm]

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.
