Donkey Kong Country Wii VC games to be removed in Japan as well
Posted on 12 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Wii Shop Channel | 0 comments
The removal of the Donkey Kong Country games from Wii’s Virtual Console is now a worldwide affair.
First a notice was discovered on the European store about their impending disappearance. In North America, they were randomly taken down, seemingly without any notice. Now we’re hearing that the games will be taken down in Japan as well.
On December 8, all three Donkey Kong Country games will be removed from the Japanese Wii Shop Channel.
Why are you doing this, Nintendo?!
Best Buy website reveals Wii Mini redesign
Posted on 12 years ago by Patrick(@Patricklous) in News, Rumors, Wii | 0 comments
Earlier this week we reported on rumours that a new “mini” version of the Wii was in production. Now, if Best Buy’s website is anything to go by, this redesigned Wii model should be on store shelves before Christmas. And if the picture on the console’s box is to scale, it looks like it actually is pretty tiny (with a stylish red finish to boot). I’m not entirely sure who this outdated hardware is aimed at, but it should be available in the US on December 7th. The listing has since been removed, but one Neogaf poster took a screenshot of the console on Best Buy’s front page, which you can view over the break.

Nintendo TVii will be out for Japanese Wii U launch
Posted on 12 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Wii U | 0 comments
Nintendo TVii will be ready for the Japanese launch of Wii U next month.
Starting on December 8, the app will be available to all consumers in the country. Nintendo has teamed up with Syndicated G Guide for the service.
We’re waiting on concrete details as to how Nintendo TVii will work in Japan, but it sounds like it’ll be much different than the North American version. It seems as though the app mainly functions as a source of information. You can view downloaded details about TV programs to your Wii U and view that on the GamePad. Actual television watching is done on the television.
