– Called “Kyou to Ashita no Uranai Lucky Channel,” translates to “Today and Tomorrow Fortune Lucky Channel” in English
– Channel involves luck and fortune telling.
– Register up to six Miis with date of birth information, receive their fortune daily
Description of the modes:
Today’s Fortune, Tomorrow’s Fortune
This mode gives your Mii a number to indicate its fortune for the current and following day. Those who want to get more specific can get readings on love, work, studies, communication, and money, each on a five point scale. This mode will even give you a lucky color for the day.
Friendliness Fortune
This mode offers compatibility rankings for two Miis. On days that your compatibility ranking is high, it’s encouraged that you eat and play together. On days that your compatibility is low, the mode will tell you when you can expect the ranking to rise again.
Food Guide
This mode offers three key words to describe recommended food genres and ingredients for the day. Sample words include “Rice,” “Japanese Food,” “Fried,” and “Fish.” Nintendo expects people to interpret the keywords differently and come up with different food ideas. The results change depending both on the day and on the Miis that you select to include in the fortune telling.
Play Guide
Similar to the Food Guide, this mode offers three keywords regarding recommended play style for the day. Sample words include “Sports”, “Racket,” and “Net.” Using these three key words, you and your family and friends can come up with activities. As with the food guide, the results change with the day and depending on the Miis that you’ve chosen to include in the fortune telling.
Beauty Guide
This mode gives three keywords on how you can improve your luck. Sample words include “Hair,” “More than usual,” “Cleaning,” “Hand,” “Beautifully,” and “Window.” You’ll have to determine what the resulting words mean.

Retailers such as Best Buy and Amazon began to modify the release date of Deadly Creatures a couple of days ago, which hinted that the game would be delayed. Deadly Creatures was scheduled to ship in December this year, but this is officially no longer the case. The title, like the retailers suggested, should be releasing in February now according to THQ.
Deadly Creatures also suffered from a previous delay, as the game initially was going to be available in October. On the bright side, the extra months before release will definitely allow the development team to add some extra polish to the game.
In March of this year, Nintendo attempted to trademark the term “Wii Remote.” Since then, the latest news is that Nintendo’s application is currently suspended, as the word “remote” is too general to warrant a trademark. The United States Patent and Trademark Office hasn’t completely denied all chances of allowing the company to trademark “Wii Remote,” though more work would be necessary for success. One would assume that Nintendo would attempt to trademark Wiimote or something similar, but the company was recently entangled with an issue from Fobis Technologies stemming from the word “Weemote.”

Shigeru Miyamoto is an extremely influential figure over at Nintendo headquarters, so it isn’t surprising that people listen in on what the man has to say. Most recently, Miyamoto was asked if Wii Music is the last game in the Wii-line of titles. He responded by noting, “Yes, it is true that the existing Wii games, including Wii Music, were on the top priority list, but there is some other software, of course, but I cannot talk about it!”
Miyamoto also responded to the challenge of coming up with universal themes (following sports, music, fitness)…
“Well, yes, it is challenging to find something universal but, after all, that’s my job as I see it. Until the time that I am in a position to tell you the next subject, we can only confirm that we are working on the next Mario and the next Zelda, etc. In terms of new games, we need to stand with the potential customer’s viewpoint. Of course, we have new ideas in mind all the time, but the challenging part is whether they will really be widely appreciated by users.”
