Wii Remote Plus official

Posted on 14 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Wii | 0 comments

A few days ago, the “Wii Remote Plus”” was discovered through a GameStop listing. Today, Nintendo has made it official. Satoru Iwata did not discuss the product in-depth, though I suppose that isn’t really necessary. After all, it’s truly just a Wii remote with MotionPlus built in.

Earlier this year, Nintendo said that Mistwalker’s The Last Story would be out in Japan. Unfortunately, that no longer appears to be the case. Nintendo’s global president, Satoru Iwata, has confirmed that the game will instead ship on January 27, 2011. No North American release date has been announced.

Photos from Nintendo’s conference

We’re still about 30 minutes away, but take a look at these photos will you wait!

About Nintendo’s conference tonight (or tomorrow, depending on where you live!)

Posted on 14 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in Site updates | 7 Comments

We were left in the dark about Nintendo’s impending conference for quite some time, but a few details have finally been released. According to Nikkei, the Big N will start the event at 1 AM EDT/10 PM PST. We also know that Capcom will have official news about two game announcements at 2 AM EDT (okay, it hasn’t been confirmed to be Nintendo-related, but what else could it be?!). One other thing – From what I can gather, this is not necessarily a 3DS-only conference, so we may very well hear about some Wii titles.

Just so you know, I’ll be covering the conference in any capacity I can. This includes posting updates on the site as soon as any information becomes available, as well as hosting any screenshots/trailers I come across. I’ll probably regret staying up so late in the morning, but Nintendo conferences don’t happen too often – might as well soak in all the news!

The bulk of the 3DS news won’t be arriving until about two and a half hours, but we’ve found out about two new titles via Famitsu: Class of Heroes 3Dx3D and some sort of game in which the player waits tables. It’s certainly possible we’ll find out more about those two projects in a couple of hours.
