And anyone worrying about the controller… older Gamecube Wireless wavebirds are supposed to be supported on the system. Wonder if I can dig up a feed of the press conference. ---

I plan on purchasing a wii on Sunday (11/19). They say the system is more powerful than the XBOX (regular XBOX…not the 360),but falls short of PS3/360 specs…I’m liking the fact that u’ll be able to download lots of classic games ---
