[Definitive] Nintendo Wii Thread

[Laughing-Man]

Thursdayton is real. But don't expect much now. Iwata's speech doesn't take place until Thursday at 7:00ish Pacific Time in the US.

Is this where you got the quote from?

(Linky)

Supposedly Matt said some stuff:

IGN and Gamespot have got a look at the controller a few hours ago, according to Amir0x. "I think you guys will freak out when you see the revolution controller... nintendo has gone insane!" is the reported quote.

Got it from the IGN boards yes... So Gamespot and IGN have seen the controller already?!? Then we will bee seeing it soon for sure!!

I keen on thinking the title of the thread is "[Defective] Nintendo Revolution Thread"

Who knows, it could just be another internet created rumor again for the millionth time. Do you have IGN Insider access and you actually saw this post by Matt or did you see it from another forum like I did?

I'm an insider yes... My username is x-byte

You can take this for what it is worth, from the PA forums: It supposedly is from GAFer's girlfriend who was at the Nintendo press pre-screening of the Revolution.

Just seen pictures for the first time. This is the sexiest, most adult-looking product Nintendo have ever released. It's also gonna need some explaining, you don't get it just by looking at the pictures, it has to be explained to you.

Apparently the initial reaction is very similar indeed to the reaction to the N64's controller, maybe even more extreme - if you play it, you get it - plus the controller's very iPod-like to look at, even in its dimensions........

[eric zed]

IGN is supposedly posting the video of the presentation afterwards, but no live feeds that I know of.

[Eli]

That sucks. I want to see it RIGHT as it's unvieled (if it is)

[x-byte]

The speech is in japanese... So difficult to get what he's saying if you don't know the language.

[Karn]

I must know, where do I get the information the second that everyone else does!

[Eli]

I don't think anything really has been revieled yet. Every site I have open (Moz La Punk, Nintendo-Revolution @ Blogspot, Neowin), no one said anything.

[x-byte]

No, it's still 1 1/2 hours left...

[Eli]

really? I was told it was going to be at 8. Stupid me :(
