Promotional Images & Videos for the DSi & Wii '08 Lineups
Electro Lemon \| 1:43 AM on 10.02.2008	10 comments

Seriously, what's up with the 3 LED's? What's the blue (far right) one for?

On Nintendo of Japan's website, they posted the promotional videos that were shown during the conference online. Since they didn't provide an embed code, I took the liberty of reuploading them to Viddler, since YouTube is down, and Vimeo won't accept it. If you look int he montage, you'll see a couple of games that many people didn't capitalize on, as well as some screens of the (cel-shaded!) Wii reiteration of Punch-Out. Enjoy.

THanks for posting these, I hadn't seen them yet. The stuff on the DS still looks a lot more interesting than the stuff on the Wii... (sigh)

Qalamari: Seriously? This DSi shit is too little, too late, for too much. On the other hand, Sin & Punishment 2 could be amazing. Punch-Out, too, if they make it play better than Wii Sports Boxing.

I was referring to the games, actually. The camera DS can take a flying leap as far as I'm concerned.

The blue light is for power. The three lights on the DSi (from left to right) are to indicate wi-fi activity, charging and power.

I don't understand devil runes or moonspeak but there were several games in the DS trailer I was interested in- Chrono Trigger, Prof. Layton 2, I think I saw Shiren the Wanderer in there, a new Mario RPG, WarioWare, whatever that block breaking game was, the Edgeworth game, and Kingdom Hearts near the end. I was never a huge fan of PunchOut, and never played Sin and Punishment. But even if I had, one or two games don't equal eight. So in my OPINION the DS looks like it'll have a better year than the Wii as far as games are concerned. That meet with your approval, HPV?

Sin and Punishment 2 is really tempting, as is Punch-out... but it's not enough to make me buy a Wii again
