I wish something would leak. I'd even settle for the Madden/Rayman news that was supposed to happen before the whole shebang.

I don't like "Pre-September 14" we need to name this event GAF. Come on!

Operation Impending Disappointment.

Alternately, Much Ado About Nothing.

Honestly, this is a price point and release date press conference, and we know generally what the price and release date will be. Nintendo isn't about to blow our minds, nor is Nintendo about to unveil crazy new secrets we never saw before. At best they might premiere one or two games that some people have been hoping for.

I can't believe this is about to hit 1,000 replies and nothing has even happened yet. It's amazing the amount of attention and hype the Wii is getting.

I'm guessing that this thread will be GAF's downfall come tomorrow night.

EDIT: Well, I guess this ended up being post 1,000.

There's supposed to be a final secret about the Wii. Also any new game announcements from Nintendo will come here, seeing as how they don't do TGS.

And price/release date is huge for some of us.

I prefer the one in your avatar.

The Waa Waa Wii Waa event!

or wii3 (cause it's 3 days?)

Anyway, i don't know if you guys want to use this thread or not tomorrow, if so just remove the "pre" and add a "starts on post XXXX". I had it planned to be solely a "pre" thread with all the news leading up to the even but there's been 1000 replies so far and not a single interesting news post. SOMEONE LEAK SOMETHING.

Edit: I agree on WTFton (Wed-Thu-Fri)

I'm expecting stuff on Zelda... just their biggest game in... forever. And if it's launching the same day as Wii, then they should really get with the program.

If they're not going to dish now, I don't know when they will. We still need to know:

Price
Release date
Region-free or not
Interface
Launch line-up
Virtual console line-up
Virtual console pricing
How Connect24 is going to be used, exactly
Specs (*ducks*)
What has happened to Super Paper Mario
When Super Mario Galaxy is being released

How about a voluntary 48-hour avatar removal starting Wednesday afternoon EST? And maybe a limit on GIFs and JPGS, in some vain attempt to not have the servers smashed for 2 1/2 days? Otherwise this thing will get pretty ugly, and I hate having to go elsewhere for my Wii news, praising, and trolling.

The avatars aren't stored on the server though. I don't think the links are going to be a big deal, plus, it's an easy way of identifying posters.

Oh, I'm sure we'll get almost all of that (except the specs). I was referring more to speculation of the MAJOR DEVELOPER WORKING ON SUPER SEKRIT WII GAME variety.

restrict people's posting ability: only one post every 2 minutes. that's what usually happens... and maybe disabling images could help too.
