Found some nice pics of the Wii hardware for anyone interested, also including unseen angles, close up of the sensor bar, the back of the console, and the inside to that 'battery case' on the WiiMote.

Just an overall view.

Blue light... Pretty! ...must have...

Ah confirmed, the Classic controller plugs into the WiiMote.

Most images of this 'Zapper' are from the side, and we rarely see the top angle.

Back of the Wii, the orange port is for the sensor bar, if you sharpen the pic you can read the writting above it as proof.

Its unknown if this is the final model, but that looks like a 2AA slot to me... course it could still be for one of those weird 'bagged together' chargable packs. lol

And last, a decent size comparison for the sensor bar.

Too see more pictures, and even 2 videos, you can go to the source link. Enjoy! ^_~

Since the Wii will play gamecube game discs will the Wii have little mini discs for games too or will it have discs the size of CDs/DVDs?

I cant see the pics either. But I have seen what it looks like due to trailers and it does look like a little beauty and is on my Must Have Now or Everyone Dies list.

Lols, yah I have the same thing in my last post.

I think that SYNC button could be for the SD slot? O_o or is it something more? like some kind of new hardware extension port?

This system looks just like pure awesomeness. I'm going to buy it.

Btw, I'm new here. Don't really know where to say hello. Soo.. hi, everyone.

The gun and classic controller look a little lame, but it looks totally sexy overall.

Looks a bit un-comfortable to use the analog stick on the gun. But it still looks awesome.

The Classic Controller is looking as awesome as ever. I'm so going to use it when I play GCN games on the Wii. :p

Mr. Nunchuk is looking good. Easy to hold, buttons easily accessed, smooth design... it's awesome.

The Wiimote still looking good. D-Pad looks a bit hard to reach, though. :mad:

SD Card Port looks kinda SD Card like.

Wii looks even more fun judging by those pictures of people playing in the link. :D Can't wait to play it.

I just noticed that the "a" and "b" buttons have been redesignated "1" and "2." I wonder why they didn't just go with X and Y.
The Wiimote still looking good. D-Pad looks a bit hard to reach, though. :mad:I don't think you realize how small it is. Reaching the directional pad would only be an issue if you had ridiculously tiny hands.

According to the guys that took it, its about the same size as the Gamecube one, or possibly a little smaller. ^_^;

Sweet! Now it's time for me to make a blacklist of people who refuse to buy the Wii. And think of a suitable punishment. :evilking:

I doubt very seriously that the Wii will win the console wars but I bet you it will give Microsoft and Sony reason to keep looking over their shoulder. I have a feeling that after the N64 and the Gamecube they finally got it right.
For me personally, I will get it before the PS3 for the simple reason I can afford $250 and not $600. Not to mention that my wife, an Animal Crossing fanatic found out that it will have constant online connection even when it's turned off and that people can visit her town even when she's asleep. You have to have played Animal Crossing to understand. :p
Only thing that concerns me is having to move my hands a lot to operate the controller. I like kicking back on the couch with a controller in my hands.
