Pre ordered a PAL one from GAME. WIll be getting Zelda for sure, but the staff in two branches of the store confirmed that Wario Ware is going tobe available on launch day so will score that as well. I am so excited. Will be the first time I have ever had a console on launch day!

Nintendo said it's not a launch title and it wasnt in the recent list of launch games

[Mr Fujisawa]

whast the US launch lineup?

Thats so you dont pick it up & try to play with it on a wii. Its not a proper wii controller its a tv remote that looks like one.

It was a gift that club nintendo sent me for been a platinum member last xmas.

lol, thought it was a real one :-P

Is Metroid a US launch title? Talk in the games GameFAQ's forum suggests it's not, not that it's a reliable source.

[Geezer]

Nope, it's out next year.

Well it looks as though I'm gonna have to sell my wavebird because although the Wii takes GC Pads the WB connector is gonna be blocking the disc slot, meaning you'll have to be unplugging/plugging it in constantly.

Eh? GC pads connect in a covered compartment at the top of the unit.

The wavebird recievers still fit onto the wii & they dont block anything.

No. Just no.

Wavebird recievers will not get in the way of anything.

The big question for me though is can you still use GC controllers, Wavebirds etc to play virtual console games?

[Mad Gear]

Don't see why not. The d-pad is far too small though.

I suspect it'll let you use the analouge stick as a dpad

That's even worse.
