ADMIN: The Wii counts are WAY off!!

[superchunk]

1) The final version will be released late March and it will be free via the shop channel to those who have downloaded the trial one.

Good. That is what I thought I had heard way back when, but I was unsure due to the words 'free trial version'. Which implied that like most trial versions to get the whole enchilada you will have to buy it later. Does your Wii freeze up sometimes when on the web? Mine did in my gmail account.

While the Wii may not have huge name software beyond Zelda right now, investing in one for future games is MUCH easier than investing in a PS3 for the same.

Completely agree. I bought a 360 for my bros. because there are 4 of them and the divided costs for the 360, xtra wireless controller, 2games, and xbox live for one year was low enough per brother to justify it as an xmas present. However, now that I have a wii they have been at my house every night. They all agree they should have asked for a Wii. Ages 9,14,15,17. Wish I could've talked them into it then, could've got a lot more games. Been playing a lot of Gradius. Damn that game is hard, even with the code. I downloaded it because it was a game I never finished. Oh also read this article by Reggie on MTV. Nice words for MP3. http://www.mtv.com/news/articles/1552624/20070215/index.jhtml
