Posted on 14 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in General Nintendo, Rumors, Wii | 0 comments
Ready for more Wii 2 rumors? I hope so, since IGN’s Jim Reilly just posted more speculation on his Twitter account. According to his messages, the console’s controller will have dual analog sticks and the system itself is capable of streaming content. However, it isn’t clear if that includes full games, mini-games, or just applications. Reilly also claims that both first and third-party games will make an appearance at the show, though it’s anyones guess if they’ll be playable or not.
“Dual analog sticks on the controller. Can stream game content from the console. Not sure if it’ll be full games, mini-games, or apps. There will be first and third party ‘Wii 2’ games at E3. No clue if they’ll be playable.”

The new Nintendo 3DS™ system combined with the Nintendo DS™ family of systems to make last month the best-selling March in U.S. history for Nintendo’s portable hardware business, according to the independent NPD Group, which tracks video game sales in the United States.
After only one week on sale following its March 27 launch, Nintendo 3DS sold just shy of 400,000 units.
