LOL Untold Legends. That doesn't help your case.

It's not like you have to play it with the Wii controller anyway. I bet you there'll be some additional incentive content in the Wii version to coax fence sitters to make the jump. I don't think Zelda will be good with the Wii controller. I just don't think it matters much when you've got a regular oldie controller to play it with sitting next to your system.

I'm more inclined to give Nintendo the benefit of the doubt right now. I have a DS and like it more than any other handheld I've ever owned (admittedly I've only owned a Gameboy SP, a Fatboy and a Gamegear) and played Jungle Beat at Gibbits house in July and the new control setup made the game genuinely funner. I guess it's because there's more challenge or something. Jungle Beat wouldn't be half as fun as it is if it didn't have the bongos -- but it does have them and is twice as fun.

I don't see anything in Resistance that would make me pick it above Red Steel. Obviously reviews and word of mouth will sway the final decision, but what I saw of Red Steel made it look really fun. So far everything on the 360 has trumped everything I've seen for the PS3. I don't need another system that essentially does the exact same thing unless it shows me content I want to play that I can't find anywhere else. The Wii shows me content that Sony and Microsoft can't give me and that's why I'm interested in the Wii.

But right now the launch lineup isn't looking as hot as I thought it would. At 250, though, we'll see. That's not a lot of money.

What do you mean "No Warioware"?!?
Is there an actual launch day list I haven't seen?

Seriously. Where was this announced?

Red Steel is a piece of shit.

Incorrect. I'm almost 100% sure that the Wii version must be played with the Wiimote + nunchuk controls.

From what I've seen so far, I would have preferred a Virtua Cop port.

They said on the 1UP Yours podcast yesterday that Warioware isn't making launch in the US. Given that they were at the event in New York, I believe them. Also EB's website says 1/15/07.

lol, then what does this mean?

**Schlep** · 17 Sep 2006, 05:27 PM

Fine Chao...based on your gut instinct that Warioware is coming out at launch, go start waiting in line now. Don't cry to me 2 months from now about how it's not a launch game.
