The Wii Speak Channel download situation hasn’t changed – If a ticket is used on a Wii system, it cannot be used again. However, those who purchase used gaming products need not worry about obtaining the channel, even if it were to not be bought without a code. Nintendo has clearly stated that “Any consumer who requires a Wii Download Ticket after purchasing a pre-owned Wii Speak Accessory may contact their local Nintendo Customer Services department, where they can request a Wii Download Ticket for the Wii Speak Channel for free.”

Nintendo also points out that a code will not be handed out if a third-party microphone is purchased. In a way, this is understandable, as Nintendo surely will want Wii owners to buy their product over a third-party peripheral.

“(On Bionic Commando Rearmed for WiiWare)…It would never fit in the Wiiware filesize so it would have to be disc based and you’d basically have to redo everything for Wii. It would not be an inexpensive process and I’m not sure the result would be completely satisfactory. I think you underestimate how technically advanced BCR is. It’s built on the same engine as the big BC is.

Part of the reason HD Remix and BCR are digital is because we don’t believe they’re the right content for the retail channel (at least, not as stand alone experiences). The economics would be highly unfavorable as compared to their digital counterparts. And Wiiware, we’re finding, only works for titles built from the ground up for Wiiware as the lead SKU given the filesize restrictions.” – Christian Svensson, Corporate Officer/VP of Strategic Planning & Business Development

“(On Street Fighter 2 HD for WiiWare) It couldn’t ever be Wiiware, even at 480p. File size is just too large given the storage restrictions for Wiiware. Theoretically it could be disc based but there are no plans at the moment. We’ll see how it does on its current platforms and then maybe we’ll see.” – Christian Svensson, Corporate Officer/VP of Strategic Planning & Business Development

“(On Street Fighter IV for Wii) In theory, with reasonable downgrades in visual quality including resolution reduction, yes [game could be possible on Wii]. I will still raise the question: what’s the input mechanism for a Wiimote + nunchuck (which is what 100% of the installed base has) on a Street Fighter title?” – Christian Svensson, Corporate Officer/VP of Strategic Planning & Business Development

Wii owners have been chomping at the bit for a Kid Icarus announcement for the Wii, but perhaps the newly announced Icarian: Kindred Spirits will tide some gamers over. No price point or release date have been provided, but the game should be available “soon.” Here’s the official press release:

Experience with ICARIAN: KINDRED SPIRITS™ the awesome story of Nyx, an enigmatic winged girl, that must descend from heaven in search of her missing friend Icarus.

Overfly the ruins of ancient Greece and avoid falling into blazing sands or perishing in the claws of cruel harpies and hydras.
You will need the help of Zeus and other benevolent Gods from Olympus to summon their powers. They will let you cast rays, modify the scenery and control winds at your wish…
With your own wrist movements and pointing to the game screen, you will be able to achieve these and many other feats in this new and enjoyable Wii™ platform game.
