That is all you need to know.


Excitebike, the one for NES? I had that one!

All you have to do is tell them they are being attacked and denounce the pacifists for lack of patriotism and exposing the country to danger. It works the same in any country.” — Nazi Reich Marshal Hermann Goering

So to answer the person who asked about lefties, Miyamoto is a leftie and he is able to use the controller with no problem. The controller is symmetrical so it can be used in either hand. As for Twilight Princess, both versions are being released when the Wii comes out. Only difference is gonna be that the Wii version uses the Wii-mote. You can't use the Wii-mote to slash the sword, that is gonna be done with the B button. You will use the Wii-mote like a bow and arrow to shoot Links bow. When using it to fish, you can use the d-pad on the Wii-mote to reel in the line or you can use the Nunchucku attachment and spin it like you are reeling in a real line. Any other questions you have about the system I might be able to answer just post. I followed all the news with E3 and I'm an IGN Insider so I can get the info from there that you won't be able to get if you're not a member.

Asking about lefties and the wiimote is no different than asking about lefties and a normal videogame controller. I myself am a leftie, and I know that I'll be wanting to hold the nunchaku attachment in my left with the wiimote in my right.

Yeah, that's the way I will want to do it, too, but when we get into things like sword slashing and gun shooting, I'll want to use the Wiimote with my left, but I've never had any experience using an analog stick in my right hand. You get where I'm going?

There is no lingerie in space…

Not that that is going to stop you from dreaming… Only in this case, Gaffer is actually a guy.

That'll be funny. The righties will have an advantage over you until you get used to using the analog stick with your right hand.

As to the person who asked about what came people will get when the Wii is launched, well I'll get Metroid Prime 3: Corruption, Twilight Princess (Wii version of course) and Red Steel if they fix the controls, which I think they will. Other than that, I need to wait till I get more info on the launch titles before deciding if I will get any other games.

SMB Galaxy... no doubt. I'm a nut for all things Mario. And I can't wait to see the first Wii version of Mario Kart. That's gonna be sweet with a Wiimote.

LOL at the 'Pii' cartoon BTW...

I'm used to analogues in both hands, having owned an XBox, so it won't be an issue for me. Sword-slashing and gun-shooting? Well, I have light guns for my Saturn and I switch hands when I get tired, so that's not a problem for me either. But I get where you're coming from still, it'll take a little bit of getting used to - it's a right hander's world - and if it's one thing us lefties are good at, it's getting used to things...

Oh, and launch titles? Mario Galaxy, Zelda and Metroid, of course...

I'm actually getting really excited just talking about it...so much for my 'wait-and-see' approach, I'm probably getting a Wii at launch...
