Reggie said June and it seems with the huge increase in Wii supply he might be correct.

I'll err on the side of caution and say July.

Who the hell is Reggie? Is he like Michael Pachter?

He is the one who always talks on E3 06 and E3 07 nintendo press conference. He is the spokesperson of Nintendo, he is also the president of Nintendo America

 


 Ok I never heard of him sorry I am from Australia.

This is Reggie, he isnt good at posing in pictures such as this but he is a good speaker and he is decent in videos and coverage. thats why many people buy the Wii, becausae he is a good speaker he knows how to own the stage.http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image:Reginald_Fils-Aime.jpg

 



end of core gaming days prediction:

 

E3 2006-The beginning of the end. Wii introduced

 

E3 2008- Armageddon. Wii motion plus introduced. Wii Music. Reggie says Animal crossing was a core game. Massive disappointment. many Wii core gamers selling their Wii.

 

E3 2010- Tape runs out

I updated the OP with some numbers... I'm surprised I am the only one that thinks it will be the week wii fit is released. (Note, those numbers should be in the last week of May (barely), unless ioi runs behind that week).

You've never heard of Reggie?  He's the guy that woke up the sleeping giant of Nintendo by walking on stage at E3 2004 and saying, "My name is Reggie and I'm about kicking ass, I'm about taking names and we're about making games."

 

At that point, we just the VP of marketing.  Only a few years later he was promoted ot COO and President of NOA.

Where is that awesome graph that showed Nintendo's profits and how it changed when Reggie showed up.

On topic, I would also like to say June, since Reggie said it.

You may want to change your mind.... Check out www.toysrus.com

This coming weeks numbers will be poor, but the following week is going to be HUGE.  I am talking possibly larger than Christmas numbers.

If Reggie says June, that I'll accept the fact that he knows more about it than I do.

That said, if not for GTAIV it would be much, much sooner.
