Wii/Zelda

[Van Halen Man]

Anyone know when the Wii/ Zelda is going to come out? And does anyone else think that Nintendos changing from the name "Revolution" to "Wii" was a dumb thing to do? Oh yeah, and where can I see the FORUM rules?

Last I heard (my brother works at a game store) they're expecting it in November thereabouts. It will likely ship alonside or be a pack-in game for the Wii.

I don't know. There's something kind of macho about giving a game system a nickname for the male sex organ... or not. Yes, it's silly. I think the guys at Penny Arcade said it best:

"What kind of terrible names did they have on the list that made 'Wii' turn out looking good?"

Oh yeah, and where can I see the FORUM rules?

Glad you asked. It should be the first link in your "Quick Links" menu above this post. If not, try here:

i heard the next one is coming out for both the gamecube and Wii, i really hope it does, there really havnt been any releases on the gc that have excited me (and kept my attenchion), the only games that i still own (that i didnt sell) are zeldas collector edition (with the first and second zelda, then ocerana of time and majoras mask, with the ability to play them on the harder mode) and windwaker.

Yes, my brother also says they're expecting it to ship for Wii and Gamecube, with the Wii version basically being a sort of "Director's Cut" with some extras (like using the Wii controller and slightly better graphics).
