I get tired of Nintendo nickle and diming everyone on accessories. These things will probably be $20 when sold seperately, so add another $80 to the Wii for a complete console. You know, for being the cheapest console, the Wii ends up being pretty expensive if you want 4 controllers.

I can't wait to play Tiger Woods 10 Wii. It should be even better then the last version.

Oh yeah. Knowing how the Nintendo crowd gobbles up anything first party I'm sure this is going to be huge especially being bundled with Wii Sports Resort. No release date set yet, all I can find is them referencing Spring 2009 when they announced it last year.

Pasta, any idea when the Wii Motion Plus will be available. I don't know why I think this, but I have a feeling it's going to be one of those things that you can't get unless you preorder because they won't make enough. I'd hate to have the game and no Wii Motion Plus to play it with.

I guess I'm getting flashbacks to when the original Xbox went online, and you needed an Xbox Live Kit to be online, and they were hard to find for a while. Same with the PS2 network adapter.

I believe it is coming to the 360/PS3 also, but the Wii version will be out before them.

I'm curious about the new tennis game. Is it going to be just for the Wii or are there plans by EA for a next gen tennis game for the PS3/Xbox 360?

I doubt that will happen. Seems like all the developers have learned from previous attempts not to bother attempting to do anything with the Six Axis.

I doubt that will happen. Seems like all the developers have learned from previous attempts that the Six Axis is pretty much worthless and only causes headaches.

Pasta, any word on if Tiger could utilize the six axis ps3 controller and use it as a club in TW10? I don’t see why you couldn’t. I realize it wouldn’t be as accurate as the wii. But it would be cool all the same.
