the general consensus is that it's Q2 no matter what the actual Nintendo website says

I've seen reports of press release from 4 days ago that listed it as March 5th. Last time I saw one that said Q2 was at the end of Jan.

associatedcontent.com
gameinfowire.com
Nwiizone.com

Then again, I've seen reports on Feb 6th and 7th that say Q2
gwn.com

More and more things seem to be saying March 5th.

Turn the 8 sideways and it's "Mario Party Infinity"!

Hey, whoever it was that LOLed and ROFLed at "kilohypes" should find "Mario Party Infinity" unspeakably funny.

No, because it doesn't invoke fond memories of Futurama.

I already made a thread about this. Gamestop and EB still have it listed for a March 5th release, they even told us to come pick it up on that date.

But I trust the official sites better.

It was pushed to Q2 (April May June); anything saying March is old.

No.  Nintendo decided that WiiConnect 24 is the only online we need, and it's planning to reduce the number of Miis a Wii can hold to 12.
That's my opinion, not yours.

First of all, you are exaggerating. Yeah, I do send Miis, but not like crazy. The last two Miis I sent were Muppet Man and Cupid. The only one that gets tons of Mii love is S_B, and the Miis I send him are usually in jokes.

Second, feel free to delete them if you need to make personal Miis. Those are mainly for show and not needed. I tend to make Miis, then take a pic and delete them from the Wii.

And Ryan, don't believe that date. Its been said that Gamestop tends to use placeholder dates till an official date is announced. So June 1st is just a random date.
