Eh, DS demos aren't bad as it is about time this channel will venture outside of Japan, but Wii demos are what people are looking for. I guess this is still good news I guess.

I agree wii game demos would make jump for joy even if they only temporary.



I love fighting games !!! Come on challenge me !

I think once they add a SD\USB Hard drive, we will see Wii demos.

I like the bit about all the games coming out... it essentially gives all the information that we need for our games database, so if we have someone in America and someone in Europe who can edit the games pages then they can use this for all the information, and someone for Japan too but there aren't very many users in Japan. (Unless it works for a Japanese Wii in which case a number of users have them, like Onna)

It is based upon your Wii and not your actual geographic location. I'm currently in Japan but have a Japanese Wii and an American Wii so I can play both countries' games, but I don't think I could/would like to take the time to translate and input information from the channel at present, but it does sound like a good idea if there is anyone available to do it.



 

^So when you download other channels (for instance the voting channel) does it come in Japanese on one Wii and in US English on the other? (and presumably would have a seperate set of regional questions)

Europe/Australia will get it on May 30.

I thought we would never get it. Good news.

 10 days after WiiWare, so maybe the same will happen to the US. They get it on the 22nd of May.

A question on the DS demos.

Can you play the entire game by the demo, or is it a short version? If it is the full game, can you reload the battery and not lose the demo (while keeping the DS on)

Thanks for posting the info too!

It's most likely a short version.
