If they didn't add a calibration option I'm skipping this completely.
Agreed, it makes little sense to release it that soon and Nintendo is tight lipped. See excitebike. And like they'd piss on SMG2 and Other M with a new console release.
"They've also never kept up with the technology curve in any of their consoles so the chances of this speculation being true are pretty much non-existent."
The Gamecube launch title Star Wars: Rogue Squadron set the 6th gen polygon record at 20mil in the Hoth scene at 60fps. N64 had the most powerful hardware of that generation. And you obviously never played NES or SNES.
Yet you play Littlebigplanet.
"You just CANT do that in front of any other adult. Olivia is a hot girl she knows how hot girls think, you have a very low probability of score with someone bragging about playing Mario."
If you ignore the fact that the wii appeals heavily to women you might have a point. Bragging to girls about playing any video game kills your chance of scoring.
My gf loves the wii and Mario. We once talked to an attractive female clerk at family video who owned one an...
"I had a lot of fun with the game but if you think this game is innovative in any way you are seriously kidding yourself. Galaxy is a retread just like every other N franchise and its attempt to meld with adult gamers AKA heavy rain is laughable at best."
There are how many R + C games? How about COD? Street Fighter? All these series have more games than Mario and started many years later with few or no changes in core gameplay.
Nintendo isn't innovative...
They were talking about the accessories like the wiimote and wm+ in that statement and incorporating them in one device.
"people who say Ratchet and Clank is for kids have no idea what they're talking about, the game is full of weapons and destructive devices and gadgets, violence, and blowing sh*t up"
Cute animals, guns, explosives, and destructive gizmos - ever watch Looney Tunes?
The genius of that show is that it was originally intended for adults and later expanded to children. Back then we didn't have to justify watching cartoons to ourselves by making arbitrary dist...
Sexual puns are only mature if they're good.
@Sidar
She didn't use the wrong words, she's said dust off your wii a couple times in the few web clips I've seen. She also asked Reggie something about what they were doing for the hardcore nintendo gamers (he sadly said animal crossing which I've never played but sounds bad - instead Metroid Prime Trilogy and Sin and Punishment 2 and New Super Mario Wii should have been mentioned).

"I agree with Morgan Webb cause she's hot."
Morgan Webb has a man jaw, man shoulders, and man height.
She has a degree in rhetoric. The idea of her being sexy for liking guy things fails when you look at this video while considering it. How to build an ultimate gaming pc:

"NINTENDO IS NOT MAKING THE SAME MONEY AS EITHER MICROSOFT OR SONY. People disregard Nintendo because they are like a mid-major vs. the big boys. Sure they are making a little money, but please remember this...it takes 2 Nintendo Wii's to equal the money of either 1 PS3 or 360 sale."
The nintendo wii is the only console not sold at a loss with hopes to recoup on game sales. This is a well known fact and a summary of a fortune magazine article explaining this is linked ...
There's an elephant in the room. You forgot the company that sold the most consoles and has the highest games sales (more than PS3 and Xbox combined). You know, the one earning a profit. Over by a slaughter from xbox...ha, MS would kill for the success of nintendo.
Own a ps3 and wii, both rule, quit ignoring the latter.
First day buy but no Cammy makes me sad. Zero is a nice inclusion though.
The turntable for this game is a huge pos - try it as bestbuy. Might be fun but wait for 3rd party tables.
For the price you may as well save a little more and get actual tables...by the time you're ok with them splurge on a good mixer. It's not like playing guitar where the barrier to entry is huge. The hardest part of djing is having an ear for how to mix songs.
The cell's so fast it can see through time.
Who is disagreeing with this guy? They kept armor off the horse in ps3 oblivion because of the ram limitations.
Another big problem are the in order execution cores. On pcs, the processor determines the order in which to execute instructions to optimize the program. The consoles (ps3 or xbox or wii) don't and execute them in the order received, putting the task of optimizing them on the developers. It's complicated to optimize code in a parallel processing environment like th...
This is certainly true as the cpus in the consoles are in order execution cores - they don't optimize the order instructions are processed in and instead go through them in the order received. Hence the developer is left to optimize layers and layers of loops and function calls on their own for the cell's parallel architecture and it gets complex real fast.
Incidentally this is why the consoles don't compare to pc processors in power in actual applications. It's humanly impossi...
Yeah, this is like some big brother rewrite history nonsense. GC Rogue Squadron was a launch title and smashed the games that gen with the record polygon count of 20mil in the Hoth Battle, without slowdown at 60fps. This isn't even arguable.
"Only reason I can imagine Disney signing off on it is because Disney + Wii seems like a perfect family friendly marriage, which = $$$"
Development costs for concept art and programming on non-HD consoles are much lower, like 1/3rd to 1/4th as expensive as xbox or ps3. Shhh...on n4g that's a secret.
