The Opera browser on the Wii will be free until June 2007....

Also, since this is the "official" thread it's worth throwing up a link to the Wiki since most questions can be answered there.

added to the op

Unfortunately can't find a store taking preorders here in Toronto yet. But with 2-4 of each Future Shop, Best Buy, EB Games, Toys R Us and Walmart within 30 minutes of home, don't think I will have a problem finding a Wii at launch.

Anything i need to add to the OP?

 

[40Hands]

I put 5 dollars down for the new Zelda at EB games. People who reserve a game get first dibs on reserving the system.

I guess I pre-ordered my chance to pre-order.......?

At least one company is putting their C64 games on Wii. Personally, I don't think many other companies will follow this. I just don't think there is the same audience for old C64 stuff as there is for the original NES et al.

[TraumaRN]

Figured I'd bump this thread and say please consider for a sticky mods since this and the PS3 will be out in less than 2 weeks from today

WIIIIIIIIIIIII!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[secretanchitman]

wii comes out in less than 2 weeks.

wii + zelda FTW!!!

 

[Pastore]

Walmart is looking good for launch day!

Good launch guide to add to the OP

 

[Danman]

I can't wait! :-D

 

[Baked]

I'm gonna camp out at my neighborhood Costco for the Wii bundle. Oh yeah.

 

[Slew Foot]

Yeah you probably ought to sticky this so there aren't 400 different Wii threads.

Ive got a couple preordered, just in case one doesn't pan out, I have a backup.

 

[loup garou]

Check out this Japanese pre-order line.

It keeps going and going and going...

 

[Chadder007]

A lot of the games look pretty fun....but a few of the more mature games look like crap or even Nintendo 64'ish. (Such as FEAR and COD3)

 

[dug777]

I'm guessing the OP needs and update? What should i include?

 

[CKDragon]

Has anyone heard anything new about the component cable situation?

First I heard they would only be available online and then there was something about Gamestop having a few...

I just want to make sure I can play in progressive at least on DAY 1.

EDIT: Answered my own question.
