GO FLAMES GO

Specs:
- IBM Broadway 729 MHz PowerPC processor
- "Less than 128 MB" of MoSys RAM
- ATI Hollywood 243 MHz graphics card
- 512 MB of internal flash memory for game saves and downloaded games

Online:
"Unfortunately, it seems that there will be no universal online interface. The developer of each game will have to create its own. The online structure is based on the same one for the DS, involving "friend codes" to find people."

Misc. info:
- Add-on may be needed to play standard DVDs on the Wii.
- Wii will ship with one remote/nunchuk controller and no games.
- Classic controller must be bought separately.

Source = GamePro magazine. Looks like people can stop saying that the final specs haven't been released yet.

And yet another reason not to buy the Wii. Instead, go Xbox 360!

There is online. I have no idea what you guys are talking about.


Except they said Online will be like the DS's online just slightly better. That means the game will feature online but instead of having a good online set up like 360 it'll be like the DS's where it's friend codes or just go into random battles.

in the reading it says the wii will not have an official online system each company will have to release there own online system with their respective game

thats what were talking about

o ok that makes sense.

That means if a company chooses not to make a online interface then it'll be the regular "friend codes" "search" online service. That makes complete sense then.
