Yes, you can use a Gamecube controller or something like that. I think the Wii may be released November 6, though I am not completey sure. The release date is not fixed so the release date I mentioned may be fake.

Okay, that was a little mean of me. Sorry. But using punctuation is a good thing. It'll make your posts easier to read.

No, the Wii is not out, but more new information is being released about it all the time. Game Informer recently mentioned something about certain internet-related programs for the Wii, although details about what they actually did were sparse. (I'm particularly intrigued about something called !!M, as there isn't even a clue about what it does in the name). Unfortunately, that Game Informer is at home, and I don't remember the names of the other mentioned things.

The ability to use Gamecube controllers has been confirmed for some time. I believe I've even seen an image of the Wii with the Gamecube control ports exposed on it. From what I've heard about Super Smash Brothers Brawl, it is played using the Gamecube controller. I'd be very surprised if Nintendo decided to change their minds about the controller, however, I guess there's still some possibility of it that we have to consider. After all, the Classic controller has already been seen, and Nintendo could take the money route: do away with Gamecube control compatability and make people get the other controller instead. In which case, we have a very important question to ask. What color will your controller be?

The release date is the most difficult thing to say right now. I've seen it as mid to late September, but I'd say the best estimate is early Autumn. Maybe mid-Autumn, but only if something goes very wrong. As long as the system works without glitches, the best thing Nintendo can do is get the Wii out as fast as they can, because they have the games to give it power. Well, they have to make sure that the way people download games works too. Actually, that'll probably be more of a problem than the system itself.

Oh, and no. It's not out yet.

A jet-black DS Lite? *shivers* Ooooo. But getting a Lite isn't like getting an SP. The SP was a significant improvement on the Advance while the Lite only deals with minor concerns which I'd never had a problem with in the first place. *sigh* but a black DS would be so nice.

Anyway, whatever. If you were too go onto Wikipedia, there's quite a bit of info on the Wii, and plenty of info on games as well.

The Wii is not coming out this year but next year at March 2007. I read from some game magazine(I forgot the name of it) saying that it will come out on some date of that in 2007, and it can use a gamecube controller. Andf I heard about 2 wii controllers too.

I'm going to doubt that statement, given this article.

Even if it doesn't come out by the time the analysts project in that article, it stands to believe that they are on track to release it to the public in a few months, at most.

Also, 3 publishers have stated release dates for their games: October 11th, and the 18th.

The 18th also makes sense because it's the day the Famicom was released, and Nintendo likes doing those kinds of things.

November makes sense, but October makes more sense.

Sorry to double post, but I was gonna do this in my other post:
This is a quote from Orange Lounge Radio, a popular podcast/live show :D
