The user starts playing a real copy of the Zelda: Twilight Princess, but doesn’t have the nunchuck plugged when the game is booting up. Before plugging in the nunchuck the user switches the disc with a backed up game, then plugs in the nunchuck, and the game plays well with the Backed Up game

Rumour has it that the latest issue of Game Informer enlisted Super Smash Bros. Brawl as a title to be released on June 1st. Could it be possible? Perhaps, but it would be a huge shocker if an announcement was made real soon as Reggie promised to announce Wi-Fi compatible titles for the Nintendo Wii during the first quarter.

Check out the Nintendo Wii Nunchuck.
A new rumor: The Nintendo Wii Wireless Nunchuck
An unconfirmed source has revealed that Nintendo are currently working on a wireless version of their Nunchuck attachment for the Wii remote.
This comes after many complaints from gamers who feel that the dangling wire which links the two devices, simply distracts from gameplay, especially in games which require significant movement of the arms, such as Wii Boxing or Call of Duty 3.
The Wii Nunchuck gets it’s name from the martial arts weapon, the ‘’Nunchucks'’ because of the similarities in design; a chain/wire connects two heavier objects at either end. The wireless Nunchuck attachment will possibly undergo a name-change to make sense.
There’s no reason for Nintendo not to make future wireless devices for the Wiimote - a wireless reciever would plug into the remote in place of any wires linking the two. Communications between Wiimote and Console would be as normal. The downside to this is the added drain on batteries, though with Nintendo’s track record with their previous wireless technologies, we’re sure they will leap this hurdle.

Wii HD in the Future??
Nintendo Of America president Reggie Fils-Aime commented an interesting quote in a USA Today article.
“Tough choices about not including a DVD player at the start, tough choices about not including high-definition capability at the start. That’s because we wanted a mass-market price, and we believe the market will validate those decisions come launch day on this Sunday,” Fils-Aime said.
The key phrase here is “at the start.” Wiis currently cannot play DVD movies, but Nintendo has already confirmed that a new model will be able to in the latter half of 2007 (in Japan at least). If we apply this logic to the “high-definition capability” statement, it seems that this might only be a temporary setback as well.
So there could be a major upgrade of the Wii to a next-gen HD format as well as a HD firmware update of 720p/1080i/1080p support once the format war becomes more clear.
Do you need a HD Television to play your Wii on ?
