I have my Nintendo Wii
Posted by: Simon Wood in Gaming on December 8th, 2006
I have now collected my Nintendo Wii. After visiting Gamestation at midnight last night I have now got my new toy and it is at home. Unfortunately it is a Christmas present from my wife so I can not play on until Christmas day. But I am still over the moon that I know I have one. Has anybody else out there managed to get their hands on a Wii on launch day?
Pictures now added as requested.
Nintendo Impress At E3 (Lot’s Of Wii News)
Posted by: Simon Wood in Gaming on May 10th, 2006
Well they have done it! Yesterday Nintendo had their press conference at E3 and boy did they deliver. They told us that the analogue stick add on to the controller will also have motion detection for the Wii. The controller will feature a speaker. And there are 27 games to play at the E3 show!!!
Nintendo did not worry about realise dates and prices, instead they just showed us people playing the games! And after Sony’s crap show of the crap PS3 yesterday this was really stunning! Nintendo still know how to play the gaming market and with the Wii they have created something truly amazing.
Of all the games they showed off I am most looking forward to Red Steel, Wii Sports also looks good.
I’m sure I will post more here in time, but for now check out the Official Wii Site
Nintendo make a BIG mistake (Nintendo Wii)
Posted by: Simon Wood in Gaming on April 27th, 2006
Nintendo have made the biggest mistake in gaming history! They have change the name of their next console currently known as the “Revolution” to the “Nintendo Wii“, pronounced “we”. Everybody liked the code name Revolution and now they have given the console a crap name for no reason. I will of course still buy one on the day of launch as it will be the best console of its generation. I will just continue to call it a Nintendo Revolution as this is a much better name!!!
What do you all think?

The Next Generation Console Wars
Posted by: Simon Wood in Gaming on March 15th, 2006
OK the next “Gen Console Wars” have already begun, Microsoft already have their Xbox 360 out, although the lunch went a bit bumpy with reports of overheating consoles.
Today Sony have taken a big fall anouncing that the Playstion 3 will not be available until Novemeber, and that is a Japan launch date. The US and Europe will have to wait even longer for the next Playstion console.
So that leaves my personal favourite Nintendo. Those of you who know me, know I am a Nintendo Fan, but even those who are not fans must be able to see the potential of the Nintendo Revolution. With the Sony anouncment it looks like the Revolution could be out before the Playstation 3, and that could help Nintendos sales figures!
