# To the east lies the country of Beckseria, and within it is the town of Beckseria, which is surrounded by a somber mood. Upon entering the town, the group is warned that the town is doomed. It seems like the townspeople are suffering from a mysterious illness. S
# At Dharma temple, where people come from all around the world to change their class, it seems that the high priest has mysteriously disappeared.
# On the coast, there is a small village called Tso. At first glance, it seems like a peaceful fishing village, but it’s actually protected by a Guardian Spirit. Thanks to the Guardian Spirit, the townspeople no longer have to work, and can live an easy life. Some people aren’t so content with this, however, and find this “Guardian Spirit” to be suspect. There’s a screenshot in the corner showing the village elder saying something like, “Nonsense! Do you expect the villagers to believe a stupid story like that?”
# The Forest of Ruin has long been considered a dangerous place, forever shrouded in darkness. At the center lies a strange castle… it lies in ruins, surrounded by poisonous swamps. There’s no trace of people, and it’s teeming with monsters.

Rumor: Double USB hard drive in the works for Wii
Posted on 15 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in Rumors, Wii | 6 Comments
According to QJ.net, Nintendo is busy developing a “double USB hard drive” for the Wii. This would, supposedly, provide relief for those who have been struggling with the small amount of internal memory available on the system.
The rumors also says that the device would mount on the back on the Wii and is designed to seem like a natural part of the Wii. The hard drive would not be able to be used without a firmware update but all downloaded content from the Wii Shop Channel can apparently be transferred right onto the hard drive.
No date was provided for when all of this would be released. I’m a bit skeptical of this rumor, but I’m sure quite a few people would be satisfied if this is indeed Nintendo’s storage solution.
