it says Pre-release SHIPS 6.1.07
They'd hype the living shit out of it when a release date is confirmed let alone pre-releases start shipping. It's probably just a placeholder date.

Do a Barrel Roll Wii!
I was REALLY excited until I realized that the Ninja Turtles game wasn't the Arcade game.
it says Pre-release SHIPS 6.1.07
I like how we had a similar thread in which it has a retailer saying that it'll be released November 30th.
Well I heard from some people that June is the assumed month it will be released, I don't why but it is. I looked it up on 1UP and it says June 1st as well; but it probably will come in the summer or early fall (me thinks).
So, any news on old rail shooters getting transported to the wii? I love me some rail shooters, and the wii's motion sensors would be perfect for those games.
Has anyone else had their wii freeze up on them? I was only plaing wii sports for like 30 minutes.

Yeah it froze up on me a while ago when I loaded up a saved game on Twilight Princess. It wouldnt let me restart the Wii so i had to unplug the power cord itself in order to fix it. I havent really experienced this kind of problem again because I havent even played my Wii in over 3 months.

RE:UC has been apparently confirmed to be an on rails shooter.

From IGN
First Umbrella Chronicles Details. Survival horror? How about survival shooting?
…Umbrella Chronicles takes place from the first person as your characters move through a fully 3D mansion. Using the Wiimote, you take aim at enemies and fire away. You have control over your path only at the occasional branch points in the stages. Everywhere else, you're on a fixed path, although you are free to look around. Doing so is apparently the key to discovering secret items.
Outside of the first person shooting, the game will bring back the command-based event sequences of Resident Evil 4. During these sequences, you'll get to see the main characters directly face off against attacking zombies.
The game's storyline looks like it will fit the name "Chronicles." You can expect to be filled in on the details behind everything from RE0 all the way to collapse of the Umbrella Corporation at the start of RE4. As for the full game, it's currently 25% complete and without a final release date.
Well, that sounds pretty cool. Its just good to hear that this isn't gonna be a complete first-person rehash of the Gamecube RE.
I am hoping Spinmasters goes to VC(was that a sega game?)
by the way, Resident Evil 4 Wii official:

Well, might as well get this version since I didn't get the gamecube version.
Well I heard from some people that June is the assumed month it will be released, I don't why but it is. I looked it up on 1UP and it says June 1st as well; but it probably will come in the summer or early fall (me thinks).
Given they said last E3 there was nothing else to show than the trailer I highly doubt Smash bros is going to come out in 2007. Plus they already have Super Mario Galaxy and Metroid Prime 3 scheduled for this year, so it'd probably be better for them if they didn't release all their killer aps at the same time.
Disappointed UC is just a on rail shooter. It's time for big third parties like Square and Capcom to stop churning out half assed Gamecube ports or spinoffs of their biggest series on the Wii.
It's all well and good that Nintendo are trying to change the way we play games but the way they bring out their 'industry changing' games is just poor at best. Yes it was great that TP was a release title but everyone finished that by week two. What are we left with to get our teeth into now? All I keep hearing is 'A 2007 release is looking unlikely' and using the 'We want our game to be perfect when it's released' can only be used so much.
My '360 and PS3 and getting alot more attention then my Wii is which I didn't think I'd be saying back on release day.
good day to be a RE fan
http://wii.ign.com/articles/778/778248p1.html
seems like RE4 wii will have all the bonus features that were in the PS2 version including Ada's seperate ways
I just might purchase it for that
(especially now that I've gotten used to the wiimote's aiming control, I suck at aiming in the traditional way now =)
edit: now which images
!
http://wii.ign.com/articles/778/778247p1.html
hmm…it appears Umbrella Chronicle is more of a gun shooter game rather than a survivor horror
that's kinda disappointing =\
but ah well, at least Rebecca is coming back : P
and Billy Cohen, now that's a nice surprise, I wasn't expecting him at all since he's not so involved in the RE plotline
edit: now with images
!
hmm, oh wow, the games actually looks really nice
maybe the gun shooter concept isn't so bad after all
but still…sticking to only 1 path with a few alternative routes...bleh
hmm, looks like Becky, Billy, and Wesker are confirmed : )
Damn I just hope HUNK get's put into Umbrella chronicles
I love that it's a rail shooter. Nobody makes those anymore. I would definitely look forward to it… if I had a Wii. Me thinks Namco should port Point Blank and add four player support into it.
Damn, I was hoping to see RE2 redone for UC. Ah well, maybe the next port-remake of the game will have it.

I have a feeling Mashiba will be very fun to use >=D
From ONM source thehylia.net
''Wifi in Mario Strikers Charged Football is region specific so we can ensure a quality experience. The game is very twitch-based and reactive, so it's important for us to keep lag to a minimum.'' Lame. But then again Nintendo is the eunuch of online play platforms.

Wow, that was fucking awful.
http://www.capcom.co.jp/wii_bio4/swf/bio4wiim01.swf
Wow, that was fucking awful.
Exactly how is that even really considered a commercial?
It's a level of terrible that's so terrible, you can't even say, "Well at least it's so awful it's great." Who approved of that idea? Ugh.
btw, gameplay footage
http://www.capcom.co.jp/wii_bio4/swf/bio4wiim01.swf

….pfft....
...So Greg, are most Japanese video game commercials that melodramatic?
"Hold me in your arms Julio! Never let me go!"

Wow, that was fucking awful.
HAHAHAHAHA "wow" indeed.
It seems as if some are more wrapped up in the Resident Evil games and are ignoring Project Treasure Island Z. I thought this game might have a bit of appeal for some here. It's like a classic point and click adventure game and has great stylized, cel shaded graphics. Hell, the game is even about pirates. Also of interesting note for One Piece fans is some of the music throughout the trailer. I'm not sure if that will be in the final game or if it's just placeholder but I was certainly surprised to hear it.
Holy shit. That's awesome.
I heard PTIZ plays like a combination of Wario Ware and Super Monkey Ball, so I'm interested.

Well here's the problem for this game. There's no save points at all in the levels. So let's say you're near the end of the stage, you see a pot and decide to get some money or whatever, then a freakin snake pops up and kills ya, you have to start all over. Took some people 1~2 hours to complete each stage. Some people playing the demo got REALLY frustrated. So IDK if they will fix this or not but, whatever. Also, I heard that it was a working title, not the official. I guess that explains the "Project" part of the title. XD
good laughs indeed
Yeah, that chameleon was hilarious. That whole game is hilarious.
Also, I'll inevitably be sucked into buying Biohazard 4 for the Wii, but that commercial sucked monumentally large amounts of toe.
I still need to get Super Paper Mario, as well as Elebits.
I'm probably going to sell Rayman Raving Rabbids, since I'm a little strapped for money right now and I doubt I'll play it again since Wario Ware did
what it tried to much better.
good laughs indeed
Fuck it, I'm getting Super Paper Mario as soon as I get some cash. That video was just awesome.
HAHAHAHAHA "wow" indeed.
He should have shot the woman for interrupting his game.
Oh, and Super Paper Mario contains an immeasurable amounts of badass.
anyone play the new cooking mama game for Wii or has the game not been released?
