WiiWare and Virtual Console Update for November 10

Posted by: Pelord, on November 10th, 2008

WiiWare:

Brain Challenge™ (1,000 Wii Points): It’s Brain Age? Well, almost. I guess.

Yummy Yummy Cooking Jam (1,000 Wii Points): I’m sure I could make an obscure Iron Chef reference here, somewhere. Do your best to prepare meals as quickly as possible for some of the most unusual customers you’ve probably ever seen.

VC:

Mega Man™ 3 (NES™,500 Wii Points): Dr. Wily claims he’s reformed, and wants to help Dr. Light create a peace-keeping robot. I think we all can see through his lie, can’t we? As if those eight robots causing trouble weren’t enough.

There are such great endings to a lot of games and it just feels so satisfying finishing the game and you get an awesome ending that makes you want to play the game again and again… Then you got those games that are great but the ending was horrible… But there are some games that suck really bad and the ending sucks even more making you want to smash that game into little pieces… and even some endings are so bizarre, there’s no words to describe it…

Well.. we’re going to take a look at some lame and Bizarre Endings!

Nintendo Speeds up Wii Production

Posted by: Yoshi_Revoultion, on October 28th, 2008

Discuss it

Nintendo has continually raised the production levels of the Wii hardware. We’re now producing 2.4 million units a month worldwide. Last year, we made 1.6 million a month. So we’ve made a 33% increase. One of our competitors projects they will sell 10 million consoles worldwide this year. For us, that’s three months of production. We’re producing an unprecedented level of hardware to try to meet demand.

Seems like Nintendo finally is getting to speeding up production just in time for the holiday season. If only they keep this up all 365 days of the year.No word if they’ll try to do the same for Wii Fit, although one thing is for sure expect to see many a Wiis and Wii Fits on e-bay come Black Friday.
