- Nobi-Wan, on 10/12/2007, -1/+22Looks like I'll be picking up Gears of War, a Wii, and the new Zelda all on the same day. I would go into hibernation all winter if I didn't have this "work" thing.
- afx1, on 10/12/2007, -0/+18He's marrying a Wii and popping out a new nunchuck and wand.
- Nobi-Wan, on 10/12/2007, -0/+13Calling me a Wii fanboy? Ok, sure I don't care. I'm not a "fanboy" of anything, I just digg what I enjoy, which just so happens to be Nintendo and Xbox 360 stuff. Sue me, ass.
Lets let all the stories be equal, no matter how many people Digg them. You're missing the whole point of Digg, communist. Whatever's the most popular is going to make it to the front so deal with it. - Ironman11, on 10/12/2007, -2/+14$249.99 with 1 controller (Wiimote+Nunchuk) and Wii Sports.
- Nobi-Wan, on 10/12/2007, -16/+27Go cry about it on Myspace.
- joel2600, on 10/12/2007, -2/+12there isn't a mod down for 1500th nintendo release date story submitted today?
yes, i know this is on nintendo's site.... but please, for god sakes ... we know - inactive, on 10/12/2007, -0/+9Nono, read TFT - this one has a DIFFERENT DATE FORMAT. It's TOTALLY new.
- Smwbigboss, on 10/12/2007, -0/+8No, it's like the DS thumb strap. You have to do that little...weird thing with the string... and the hole and... Yeah, it's separate.
- kweee, on 10/12/2007, -0/+7You know, I'm getting this strange feeling that the Wii is coming out on November 19th...
- lane.montgomery, on 10/12/2007, -1/+7It spells it right out on this page:
http://wii.nintendo.com/hardware.html
"COMING NOVEMBER 19TH, 2006" - DanSheldon, on 10/12/2007, -0/+5We have 96 more times to go then, before it becomes a problem at least. :p
- doug_brit, on 10/12/2007, -0/+5I'm as excited as everyone about the Wii, but come on guys its not fair to legit stories to just hit digg on every article with the word nintendo on it. This is simply a duplicate story nothing more.
- mb3581, on 10/12/2007, -0/+4I'm happy you submitted your own story but its kinda lame to try and promote it from a story that actually hit front page first.
- treed, on 10/12/2007, -0/+4It likely won't be. But it's probably a good idea anyway. I was already imagining people throwing the controller across the room on accident.
- AmazingAndrex, on 10/12/2007, -0/+4Remember remember the 19th of November,
Of tilt sensors, consoles, and plot.
I see no reason,
Why this holiday season,
Should ever be forgot. - opnickc, on 10/12/2007, -0/+3Does the wrist strap come with the remote? That'll be really nice, and certainly allieviate fears of throwing it at my tv.
- Nobi-Wan, on 10/12/2007, -0/+3I know that this is probably the "X" number of times the same story has been on Digg, but what do you expect when the launch date and price of the Wii is announced? Remember how many Sony stories there were when they announced the $600 price tag?
My point is just let it go and don't read the stories. Sometimes they contain different information though so it doesn't really bother me. - idiggeverything, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2Duh.
- MonkeyMonk, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2Sweet--the Nunchuck.
"Everybody was Kung-Fu fighting..."
Now I know what to ask for for my 31st birthday! - AmazingAndrex, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2Sorry, all, but it was confirmed Wii will not play DVD movies at the Q+A session. :(
- Suplyndmnd, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2It says on the site that it will have wireless 802.11 but dosen't specify if It'll be B, G, or N. I would think not B (since it's archaic) but anyone know if it's G or N? I know N isnt supposed to be approved until like Summer 07 and seeing as there are problems with the protocol and nothing is set in stone, it would be hardpressed to have it, but, one could be hopefull.
In short, anyone know for sure? Thanks - CanuckMakem, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1Nice .... two days after Casino Royale... shaping up to be a good week.
- Tonyisbad, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1Does anyone know if it will play DVD movies? I'm getting one regardless w/ metroid and some 3rd party title, but it would be nice if it could play dvd movies....
- killerofkiller, on 10/12/2007, -2/+3how clever of you to use "wii" instead of we..
- bdawg923, on 11/07/2007, -0/+1This was posted at least 5 times.
- cal01, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1OMFG. We get it already! Can we at least get some non-Wii stories now? Even the upcoming cloud is spammed with Wii. :(
- mb3581, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1The lanyard is removable but will keep you from dropping and breaking the Wiimote. And of course the nunchuck is removable
- nyrol2, on 10/12/2007, -2/+2Any fan of the Wii, already knows when it's coming out. Plus, in the last 27 articles posted here today about the Wii, they all said the release date. So by now, I think everyone knows. Oh and the release date of Halo 2 is November 9th 2004! It's confirmed. 11/9 will be the greatest day ever. I'm seriously going to start posting things like: Search engines at their finest! Google! : I'm not sure if you have heard of it, but there is this search engine called google and I really hope that the word gets around. You can search over A BILLION SITES!
- Subcide, on 10/12/2007, -3/+3Jesus, this is the 5th time this has made it to my newsfeed. Enough already. Wii all love it and wii are all going to get one. Just stop with the digg spam.
- Drakh, on 10/12/2007, -1/+1If people actually read the stories without just blind-clicking because of "Nintendo" or "Wii," they'd notice that a link to the official homepage of the Wii to talk about the release date provides no more useful information than what *anyone* could figure out from what's already been hit up on Digg.
I mean, isn't there anything else on the Nintendo homepage that might be of interest, that hasn't already been covered? That's the info that deserves a digg... not the freakin' release date. - jayscot, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Just trying to find a way to filter "Wii" out of the digg gaming section. What a waste of my time to sift through all of this.
- Drakh, on 10/12/2007, -4/+3Nobi-Wan, I'm not saying that people shouldn't Digg things that are interesting; I'm saying that this is the fourth "The Wii is launching at x date for x price!" post I've seen on the front page today. That's not new news, and it's kind of annoying to click on an article and see -- hey! It's the same damn thing we've been reading since 9 a.m...
- nyrol2, on 10/12/2007, -2/+1Luckily it will play DVD movies. You just have to buy a cheap add-on. It's like the xbox360 and the HD-DVD add-on except it will be a lot cheaper, and it won't be another disc drive. So I guess it is nothing like what the xbox360 has, other than the fact that it is an add-on to play movies.
- killerofkiller, on 10/12/2007, -2/+1simple answer.. no
- micro506, on 10/12/2007, -2/+1@killerofkiller
How on earth is that the simple answer? It's completely wrong. - snuf, on 10/12/2007, -2/+0I wish I could block everything that's related to Wii (and Steve Jobs). We don't give a f***!
- DanSheldon, on 10/12/2007, -12/+10@Nobi-Wan
You're my hero for the day. - moylan, on 10/12/2007, -4/+1never forgive
never for fun
a biccie for the person who knows the source of that quote! - Drakh, on 10/12/2007, -14/+11@Nobi-Wan
You're right. Everyone, digg whatever you can find about the Wii launching. Because Nobi-Wan wants a front page full of Nintendo fanboyism, as opposed to... say... what Digg is normally supposed to be.
It's called "searching before submitting," ass.
( http://digg.com/hardware/Nintendo_Wii_Coming_to_US_NOV_19th ) - Mystikal, on 10/12/2007, -11/+6Great. November will be the BEST month of my life. Period.
- mb3581, on 10/12/2007, -9/+4confirmed price?
- Pic0, on 10/12/2007, -9/+3NEVER FORGET
- anagoge, on 10/12/2007, -8/+1Please tell me that strap isn't permanently attached to the remote...
- ntnwwnet, on 10/12/2007, -14/+7This is the FOURTH front page story about the Wii I've seen today.
Sure, it's a great system. We just don't need to hear about it a hundred times. - OctoberAttack, on 10/12/2007, -11/+1Wii Specs Finally Revealed here: http://digg.com/gaming_news/Wii_Specs_Revealed
- ubuntutorial, on 10/12/2007, -18/+3All the 12 year olds rejoice!
The wii is about ad dead as a door nail
and as prone to failure as dreamcast - Drakh, on 10/12/2007, -35/+5DUPLICATE. STORY. ALREADY POSTED. EARLIER TODAY. x2 *vomits*


What is Digg?
