Just in case you need to be hyped up even more, there is a VERY lively chat going at irc.krohn-it.de channel #Wii-Chat. Justthought some of you would like to know since this is one of the biggest hyped events that I can remember.

Got any new details to share for the chat?
My Gaming Collection (Now at Google Drive!)
No details other than all of the gaming sites claiming to be in Tokyo live were lying. They were all using a feed from a June press conference and the blog entries from GWN to use on their own sites. It went almost 40 minutes before it was discovered. Bunch of lying gaming press animals.
The actual keynote and possible date/price for launch will be at 1 am Eastern time tonight. The chat room is still going with some 300 people in it. Around 1, it is gonna be crazy in there.
Fuck! 1 am? I was thinking that it was 4:00 pm today!! Looks like I am staying up an extra hour tonight.Originally Posted by geneshifter

Awesome, awesome, awesome news! The price is a little higher than what I thought, but it's finally some solid information, so I am more than happy.Originally Posted by PapaStu
Mark your calendars folks!
Wii Sports as a pack-in? Worthy of the awesome.
And $250 seems like a fair price to me.
