Samurai Warriors 3 on Dec. 3rd as well.

Both Samurai Warriors 3 + Tales of Graces will get Wii hardware bundles (with Classic Controller included).

Where are you getting all this info from :O

By HW bundles you mean Classic Controllers only right?

Sorry, but this is the last time I will ask. I need to see the source for both the SW3 release date and the bundles for Tales of Graces, since we already knew about the SW3 bundles.

Thanks :P

Better than nothing, but none too epic, either. Oh well.

So, wait, if the pokemon game details are wrong, does that mean there isn't one, or it just wasn't described properly by whoever's feeding this?

I love Sin & Punishment, but I think S&P2 will be lucky to sell 70,000 copies LTD in Japan.

It's a non-factor sales wise which is why its not discussed. It's going to be a bad ass game for sure though. Can't wait for it to release.

And neo robot wars taisen....? It is on The Source preorder charts

The Super Robot series should open well, but usually have 0 legs. The franchise hasn't done very well on new consoles. The 360 version completely flopped and was largely ignored. We have no idea which console the fanbase migrated to. I believe they're still on the PS2.

SRW Neo is creeping up the preorder charts said Source a few weeks ago though...

Yeah, that's a pretty awesome lineup for the Wii in Japan. Probably the best Japanese lineup it's ever had.

"Pier was a chef, a gifted and respected chef who made millions selling his dishes to the residents of New York City and Boston, he even had a famous jingle playing in those cities that everyone knew by heart. He also had a restaurant in Los Angeles, but not expecting LA to have such a massive population he only used his name on that restaurant and left it to his least capable and cheapest chefs. While his New York restaurant sold kobe beef for $100 and his Boston restaurant sold lobster for $50, his LA restaurant sold cheap hotdogs for $30. Initially these hot dogs sold fairly well because residents of los angeles were starving for good food and hoped that the famous name would denote a high quality, but most were disappointed with what they ate. Seeing the success of his cheap hot dogs in LA, Pier thought "why bother giving Los Angeles quality meats when I can oversell them on cheap hotdogs forever, and since I don't care about the product anyways, why bother advertising them? So Pier continued to only sell cheap hotdogs in LA and was surprised to see that they no longer sold. Pier's conclusion? Residents of Los Angeles don't like food."

"The so-called "hardcore" gamer is a marketing brainwashed, innovation shunting, self-righteous idiot who pays videogame makers far too much money than what is delivered."
