Some Blogs are reporting that Square-Enix will be supporting virtual console. On that topic I have the following to say:
Chrono Trigger
That is all.
actually there's an official list of VC supporters that's been out for awhile now

Big F'n deal. Gamestop Shamestop. Any word on Toys 'R Us? On another note it seems that sunlight causes the sensor on the Wii to not respond correctly with the Wiimote. Lets hope this is sorted out!

They responded to that rumor about sunlight and said that if the sunlight interferes with your ability to see then it probably interferes with the wiimote, and that is all, personally I don't think that is so terrible, since I don't think anyone will be playing it in direct, blinding sunlight anyways.
Well, I am going to be at GameStop tomorrow morning, hopefully I'll get a preorder.

Sunlight screws up the Wii mote?
that sucks. Stupid wireless crap it's all so stupid. Sure in a year or two everything'll be wireless, but I'll still hate it. And at 6AM tomorrow I'll be zzz or still playing WoW. Probably the former.

well, I just plan on staying up all night so it's not like I have to get up early or anything. (staying up all night for me just means staying up an extra two hours)

oh yeah, I was the first guy to get a Wii pre-ordered today. The Gamestop was suppose to get 14 of them but Nintendo called them after closing last night they got a call saying that they were only getting six. Good thing I showed up at 6:45 because there were like 20 behind the last guy who could get one. The latest anyone got there who got one was 7:00.

Yeah, I got mine this morning, I went to an obscure GameStop no one knows about, and I was 7th in Line when the doors open. The location was nice enough to let people know how many Wiis there were available for preorder as well (
. I was lucky, as I went to a different location at 9:40, and I would have been at least 10th, so I bolted for the other location, and got there by 9:50.

Something just occurred to me about the Wii. It seem that in almost all the Wii videos where they show gamers moving the Wii-mote while playing a game, there's almost nothing else around them in the room.
It gets me to wonder if the quality of the gaming experience you'll get from the Wii is dependant upon how spacious a living room you have...

Yeah, will the wireless cut out if a cat walks in front of the reciever? I know that my retarded wi-fi cuts out if someone walks inbetween it and the modem, but that;s just crappy wi-fi. I guess the Wii mote won't really be at a range where that matters though.

Well, I tried to get a reservation for the Wii at gamestop a few weeks ago and no luck. I went the 14th and they ran out of slots on the 13th.
So I heard that TRU was going to be accepting reservations on the 29th. I go into a TRU at 1 pm and no luck. The line for reservations was wrapped around the building before they even opened.
So I guess this means that I will have to camp out in front of Best Buy like I did for the PS2. Oddly enough, I can't wait.

Where are you located? I'm wondering if you're in a big city or a smaller town.
After looking at more video of the Wii in action, I'm convinced that it will be a fun system, and that I want to try it out more than the PS3. Soooo, bye bye PS3 until next year or the year after, hello Wii! I never got a GameCube, so this will also allow me to catch up on what it had to offer.
I missed out on the Wii preorder extravaganza at Gamestop a few weeks ago, but I'm going to go and pre-order Zelda, Red Steel, a mote, and nunchaku. I'll show at Gamestop at midnight with a friend who preorded a Wii and try buying one at that time. If that fails, at least I'll have all that junk I don't have to worry about getting later. Then I'll hit up Wal Mart (w00t, open 24 hours!) sometime before 1 AM. If all that fails I'll go over to my friend's house, play some Wii, go back home, take a nap, and show up at Target around 6:30 or so for their opening at 8 AM. If that fails, well, Best Buy opens later.
Come hell or high water, I will get a Wii before noon on Nov 19.

Nice plan but it isn't going to work. You'll be waiting until Christmas or beyond for your Wii like the rest of us you didn't pre-order!!!
