Wii Fusion Tour - Definite Thread [56K Warning]

Recommended Posts

 

Groupies following the Nintendo Fusion Tour have a new superstar to watch for. Nintendo’s remarkable Wii console is joining the tour to give video game and music fans a chance to play it before it launches in the United States on Nov. 19 at an MSRP of $249.99.

 

The Nintendo Fusion Tour blends the best of hot new music and the coolest new video games. Starting Sept. 27 at each of the tour’s 35+ stops around the country, multiple Wii consoles will be hooked up and ready to play, along with a variety of hot Nintendo DS games like Elite Beat Agents. Concert attendees can pick up the unique Wii Remote controller and start playing, regardless of their video game experience.

 

Some of the Wii titles scheduled to make the rounds on the tour include Metroid® Prime 3: Corruption, Wii Sports, Excite Truck, WarioWare: Smooth Moves and Activision’s Tony Hawk’s Downhill Jam.

 

Note that the lineup of Wii games is subject to change without notice.

 

Hawthorne Heights headlines the 2006 Nintendo Fusion Tour, with support from Relient K, Emery, Plain White T’s and The Sleeping.

I couldn't stop drooling all over those Wii games on the LCD TVs. They look so good.

 

I think Nintendo UK did say we'd get a tour, but who knows when and where it'll be.

 

I want Excite Truck, dammit.

This definitely is a thread, that's for sure.

 

It's a retarded one too.

 

Have you heard of Flickr? You can create gallerys with quick loading slideshows in a few minutes.

Then everyone could enjoy the pictures.

 

Here's an example: 1500 posters in one quick loading site.

 

Do this in the future, kthxbye

Awesome. ExciteTruck looks better every time I see it.

 

lol at the guy pointing the remote at ExciteTruck instead of holding it like a steering wheel.

Sure, but there was a lot of images of that tour that didn't show up here, and I took the time to convert them into 640 width resolution, upload them and all... It's pretty simple to come here and bash it, and it's not cool (although you seem to think like that).

 

Of course I know flicker, so what? am I obliged to use it? Also people don't necessarily follow links, thus when you click this thread you just know it'll load lots of images, that's why it has a 56K Warning, really. I like lot's of images.

 

As for definitive:

 

def‧i‧nite  /ˈdɛfənɪt/ Pronunciation Key - Show Spelled Pronunciation[def-uh-nit] Pronunciation Key - Show IPA Pronunciation

–adjective

1. clearly defined or determined; not vague or general; fixed; precise; exact: a definite quantity; definite directions.

2. having fixed limits; bounded with precision: a definite area.

4. defining; limiting.

 

There wasn't a Fusion Tour dedicated thread, and the Fusion Tour Images go here, that's why it's definite.

Please don't be such a troll, Nintendork. You make some good posts in other threads, but you're out of line on this one. You didn't need to be so rude.

 

I voted for this thread because it's good to see all the Nintendo Fusion information in one place. Pedro did put in all that effort, and I enjoyed looking through all the pictures and videos. :) It's nice to see so many people are interested in the Wii.

Shut up Nintendork, he went to a lot of trouble to show us stuff and you complain, just get your head out of your ass.

Anyway, those lucky bastards, I wish I was there.

No, I didn't vote for this thread if that's what you're implying.

 

Thanks for the support Smiter and Hellfire :)

I know!! That bar is small. I think I read somewhere it was only around 20cm long?

 

There was this cool clip showing someone playing Wii Sports Baseball, you could see both the player and his avatar. His movements were replicated on the screen, exactly and with no delay at all! Amazing.

 

Must resist temptation to raid my savings for a LCD HDTV... :shakehead

Locations: New York - Nintendo World Store, Fusion Tour stop... and some other place.

 

EDIT:

Ah you brought back my excitement for MP3.

Am I imagining this or was there an interview ,I think it was Iwata,said that we could download Wii Demos and DS Demos,not 100% but if it's true maybe we could download the MP3 demo.

You're not imagining things, but that happened a while ago. I doubt they had a set on stone plan by then, infact... I think they lack a plan like that as of now.

 

DS games would be easy, aswell as some light games such as "Wii Play" but a game like Metroid Prime 3 with engine+textures and all... It could take a few too many MB, hammering their servers, and perhaps the little 512 MB available on Wii, then there's the question baring to be asked of how many MB/s can this flash transfer, in order to achieve the same results as MP3 (reportedly) without loadings.

 

Then again MP2 was a robust engine; we've seen it in demo discs like RE4 bonus disc, with lots of compressed video's and MP2 still managed to be a fully playable demo.

 

In short, we'll see :grin:
