But no further changes concerning the new model is it? Only smaller and lighter, but not a word about upscale or something which is really needed when you have a LCD TV.

Oh Forever Blue releases on August the 2nd, I see for the WII.

And a Japanese release of Mario Strikers! 20 September.

Also a Xbox Elite version releases in Japan on October the 11th.

Thought I just add that ;)

That's for Japan on the Forever Blue right?


That's right ;) Hopefully the game will be something, looks nice. @Y-Koron, thanks, Famitsu reviews games normally about a week before the release, so therefore I find it strange they haven't reviewed the most anticipated game (probably) for next week yet :-/.

Donkey Kong Taru Jet Race is fun by the way. Ouch... my arms hurt and that without bongo's :D Got Hajime Ippo Revolution in as well this morning but haven't checked it yet...

Andamanen that's your statement about the entire WII so of course I won't take your words seriously :P

monster hunter freedom 2 bundled PSP push the sales to the game for weeks, but i doubt that push the system because all the people that want the game in japan have it now.

Wasn't the PSP already bundled with the game with the release? I thought I saw pictures from Japan in where you saw people buying the game and also buying the handheld with the game... Or I must have been dreaming.

Nope I haven't dreamed that:

i am disappointed by the numbers of DK Jet Race... looks like the DK brand is not selling anymore, but I guess that's no wonder with all those spinoffs.
Anyways, from what I've seen and heard, Jet Race is quite funny und should make better numbers.



Currently Playing: Skies of Arcadia Legends (GC), Dragon Quest IV (DS)

Last Game beaten: The Rub Rabbits(DS)

Thanks for an info y-koron. Any idea about first shipment of this title? Is it popular franchise in Japan? How about Folks Soul?

Don't take my word for it, i'm just suggesting it may be wise to wait for a few reviews. And i don't hate the Wii, i like games like Zelda and Mario :) The "for babies" quote was from EGM editor Shane Bettenhausen on the 1up podcast about his visit to the recent Square event where he played DQ:S. Listen to it here: http://zdmedia.vo.llnwd.net/o1/Podcasts/051807.mp3 Square event stuff starts at 1:51:00, the DQ:S bit starts at 1:55:35.
