I think it's time Nintendo had a look at their message board system and realize a few things have to be fixed: - The envelope icons are too big and if you receive a lot of messages in one day it'll start looking messy. - If you delete someone from your adress-book it'll turn into an empty row that you can't remove or do anything with. - The allowed message length is too short. About 200 more characters would be nice. - Lacks a date sorting function, which would help you see in what order you received the messages and align them into a nice grid. Who agrees with me that these changes would make the message-board a lot more pleasant to use?

The first three are pretty obvious:

- Super Mario Galaxy
- Metroid Prime 3: Corruption
- Super Smash Bros Brawl
- Big Brain Academy: Wii Degree
- Resident Evil 4: Wii Edition
- Super Paper Mario

If you delete pictures from the message board, will they disappear from the messages they were attached to as well? I just don't want a bunch of photos piled up in the message board.

I completely agree! The list makes it look like Wii is just a bunch of old games, which is very misleading. The people have spoken, Gamespot crew.

By claiming that the Wii is for kids, you destroy SO MUCH potential for this new console. It can be so much more than just a kid's game - it can have just as much depth as the games on its competing consoles. I know it's been said a thousand times, but graphics just aren't everything. Who's to say that motion controlled gameplay belongs to children only? I love playing on Wii and I'm 23 years old. You know what the big problem is? Most adults are so frickin scared of acting young once in a while, and having a little fun. They think that just because they've hit 30 they need to give up everything they once enjoyed, just so they can have their precious dignity. Shame and ignorance is the worst enemy of videogames.

Well, it's roughly twice as powerful as the Gamecube... so there's bound to be a couple of very pretty looking games. It's all about choosing the right art style that makes the graphics look beautiful in a very clever way. Nintendo have a long history of pushing their hardware to the limit, always finding new ways to cram a little extra power into games by using programming tricks or fooling the eye into thinking an environment is more detailed than it actually is.

Just a tad bit more storage space and RAM... that would make the Wii optimal. I fear they're gonna run into some issues once people realize they've filled up their Wii's disk space and can't download more stuff without getting an SD card. Perhaps Nintendo should consider releasing a slightly beefed up Wii in the future, if people are willing to pay the extra money.

This has been known for quite some time. But that doesn't mean they can't offer new features for Miis, as long as they don't change the amount of data the Mii stores. I mean let's take a simple thing like more colors for instance, they could offer dozens of new colors for your Mii's shirt and they'd still only have to store a simple hexadecimal code like they always have.

Here are some good ones that a lot of people (including myself) seem to like:

Legend Of Zelda: Twilight Princess, Excite Truck, WarioWare: Smooth Moves, Sonic And The Secret Rings, Trauma Center: Second Opinion, Super Paper Mario.

I also recommend a game called Kororinpa. It's pretty short, but it's very fun and has this nice warm feeling to it. It shows off very well just how accurately the Wiimote can sense tilting.
