Nintendo, as other companies, send the information out early but under an agreement not to release it until a certain time. Most likely, this information will go out with the conference tonight, and the writer was reporting it for tomorrows paper. However, it made it's way online first, and we happen to find it.

With every single major video game media outlet reporting this, either it is accurate, or everyone is fooled.

ok; what the hell is going on?

http://uk.wii.ign.com/articles/732/732669p1.html

America before Japan? I dont think anyone saw this coming. How much is $250 in £'s? And not until Dec for Japan? God, if this is true, Europe will not get it until like two weeks before xmas (im pretty sure theypromised it before the end of the year.) At least we get wii sports. And that glove thing is now explained as boxing is in wii sports. I dont think they mentioned aeroplane in the wii sports package though; what the hell happedned to thatt?

OMG this is queer, if its coming DECEMBER 2 for Jap, then wat about aus... I dont even want to think about it. Thats why im not going to beleive this, man we have been waiting so many weeks/months for nintendo to release the date and information, beleiving in something before the release date completely demeans the point of waiting? Why didnt we beleive in any of the previous 'spoils' wat is so different about this one than the rest? We just have to wait till the conferences end ok?

Woohoo! We finally have a date and a price! I'm surprised America is getting it before Japan though. Hopefully we should know the European date pretty soon.

Yes. The PS3 comes out 2 days before it in the US.

I doubt they'd release it in late December, since they'd want to give enough time for it to sell for xmas.

As long as it comes out before December in the EU and is about £200 I will be happy I think, at first for some reason I felt kind of dissapointed and I'm not sure why.I'm still excited as hell though, atleast I can def go ahead and get my DS next week...

£200? I know the console manufacturers don't think much of us Europeans, but they'd have to be pretty mean to sell it for £67 more than in the US.
