Hey, there was Klonoa in that video.
Did you miss the thread about the Klonoa Wiimake? :P
EDIT: A few more games in the Game Cube collection, including Metroid Prime 1 and 2.

Apparently so. o_o
Edit: I may already own Metroid Prime 1 and 2, but I can't shake the feeling that I'm going to buy their Wiimakes.
Well I've heard the controls are great for Metroid Prime 3, so I don't blame you. The only game I think I'd rebuy would be Wind Waker. I love that game, but I don't know if I can go back to aiming the bow and stuff with the control stick. Wiimote pointer is where it's at.
I'm surprised no one's talking about the DSi. I just read through the Liveblog, and it makes me really glad I didn't get a DS-Lite. I mean, really, look at this!
As a side note, with this...13:58: Impress Watch has a photo of the DSi.
13:59: More from Gemaga. As the rumors indicated, the DSi has a larger screen, 3.25 inches. There's a camera, and an audio-playing function. The camera is... goodness. 300,000 pixels? Is that 3 megapixels? You can apparently edit pictures using the touch screen. When playing back sounds, you can adjust the pitch and the playback speed. Why's that important? Why, for studying languages or playing music by ear, of course.
14:00: There's an SD memory card slot so you can dump your pictures right to Wii's photo channel, for example
14:04: Whoa, there's onboard memory apparently, so you can load it up with software... like games. You can download games. With Wii Points. Holy cow. Wii Points will be renamed "Nintendo Points." This just went from "well, interesting" to "must buy."
14:05: Nintendo DS web browser is built in.
14:06: From the "Nintendo DS Shop," you can download "Nintendo DS Ware." Software will be split into four categories: Free, 200, 500, Premium (800). And until March 2010, you'll get a free 1000 points (1000 yen or $10) when you buy a DSi.
14:10: The "DS Station" download kiosks in Japanese stores will enter their "second phase." A new service called "Nintendo Zone" will be started, which you can also use at McDonald's. (This must be the "strengthened internet communication" that early reports from Nikkei discussed.)
14:11: Nintendo DSi will be released in white and sooty-grey-black color variations, and launch on November 1 for 18900 yen (about $180). Yes, they've just raised the price of Nintendo DS a second time. You knew it was coming.

I'll be pretty happy. :314:29: They're going to start including a three-and-a-half minute demo movie called "Things You Can Do With Wii" with new Wii hardware, to get more people using the Internet features of Wii. They're releasing a (new?) Wii Wi-Fi Adapter. And if you, a Wii owner, help another Wii owner get connected with the Internet, they'll give you both a free 500 Wii Points in a new campaign.
Edit: Actually, wait. There's no GBA Slot.

Again, the DSi got it's own thread before this one started. :P
Aw fudge-biscuits.
This is awesome.
Also Dreddz, this isn't as pointless as you think it may be. True, the Gamecube remakes might end up being more expensive than the originals. But considering that you'll have to get a Gamecube Controller and a Gamecube Memory Card to play GameCube games on the Wii if you never owned a GameCube before it'll be much more expensive buying all of that than it will be just buying the GameCube remakes for the Wii. The GameCube remakes will let Wii owners play some of the older games from the GameCube without using GameCube Controllers and Memory Cards which are hard to come across nowadays.
I was wondering, are you able to use GameCube Controllers for these remakes or does it restrict you to the Wii Remote & Nunchuk/Classic Controller? Is there also any news about F-Zero GX being re-released?
