Yeah, my wife (who is American) makes fun of me.  She says pah-sta, I say pas-ta.  My heritage haunts me!

I am married to a Canadian as well (how I noticed your pronunciation) so I know the feeling.

I wasn't even aware there was a difference XD

James - I'm curious, where does this adamancy that WiiWare/VC won't be transferred over come from? The solution might be asinine (Connecting the Wii to Wii U via USB to transfer? Maybe...), but as far as Nintendo's past actions go (and as Jonny said many times, the industry at large), it makes no sense that they wouldn't have them be compatible. Perhaps some games wouldn't be compatible, but that's all that I think would happen.

Also, a lot of Wii games used the GameCube controller ports, so why would that have anything to do with WiiWare compatibility? I mean, ****, every version of Active Life and DDR are just not compatible with the new Wii iteration and Wii U because they need a dance pad.

 
All I know is that I had better be able to transfer my saves on Monster Hunter Tri and SSB Brawl when it comes time to move all of my stuff onto my Wii U.

I hate to be the bearer of bad news, but you can't even put that **** on an SD card. It ain't looking good.

Since DQ X is supposedly still going playable on both Wii and Wii U, it would be nice if Nintendo implemented a save file transfer in a future software update.  I can't remember the last time we had one of those for the Wii, though.

I'll admit that it's doubtful given that Ninty is walking the Wii behind the barn with a leash in one hand and a shotgun in the other.

DQ X is different though. It comes with a USB dongle for storage.

Is it just me or does Johnny sometimes seem really exasperated by James? It can sometimes be a little tense to listen to.

For the record, I love James with the power of a thousand suns.

I immediately thought of this.
