Metroid Preview Channel on WiiWare-8/11/2007 12:04am
I know I'm mad late on this, but if you didn't know, go get the MP:C preview channel. Its free for now. I damn sure wouldn't pay for a preview. Maybe a demo.
Nothing too surprising, but its nice to hear something.
"- 6 worlds, 120 stars reconfirmed, multiple planets in each world - Planets of water, ice, sand, and more - Planet size varies wildly, as we have seen - Bee Mario has the ability to use his stinger - Boo Mario will be left alone by other boos - The “butt stomp” has returned. You can see it about to happen in the second scan - As we’ve seen, the multi-colored stars will gain you an extra man if you collect 100. They can also be used for special attacks other than shooting them."
This looks sweet! I might actually be good at Halo now! Will M$ pick up on this? "I (like many others) am a proud owner of a Wii60. Us Wii60 owners feel that we've got gaming all covered. Our Xbox 360 gives us top-class hard core online gaming in high definition. Our Wii gives us really unique gaming experiences because the Wiimote is like nothing else. But, what if we could get the best of the Xbox 360 and the best of the Wii, together, in a single game? I was curious, and the end result is my creation that I call Xbox 360 Input Machine (or, "XIM" for short)."

With this game and Rock Band musical games will be having a major resurgence. Slash as a boss. Now Bret lends his moves. I know TOOL would never do it, but I would so buy it if they did.
Mario Kart Wii impressions and screens-8/17 4:06pm Wii
I may be late on this, but CVG has posted up some thangs about the mother of all kart games. I'm actually kinda looking forward to the steering wheel. Some quality pics here.
"Wii Software – Three Wii titles made the top twenty preliminary data this week. -Expect PS3 hardware to remain higher than normal for the week, at 20,000 to 25,000 units sold. -360-Expect hardware to remain within a few hundred of 3,000 – as usual. -PSP-Two PSP titles made the top twenty this week. Expect PSP hardware to remain roughly flat – at around 25,000 to 32,000 units this week. -PS2-Three PS2 titles made the top twenty preliminary data this week. PS2 hardware should be down slightly this week on the lack of compelling new software – to around 11,000 to 13,000 units. -DS-A total of nine DS titles made the top twenty this week. The top selling game for the week was SD Gundam Generation Cross Drive which sold 50,000 to 53,000 units this week. On the strength of older software, expect DS hardware sales this week to increase slightly to 153,000 to 163,000 units. " Link
This is sweet. Hopefully something like this gets integrated into all titles in the future. I really love the idea. Sometimes the smallest things end up keeping me playing a game forever. ....Ah...Melee trophies. Link
