Topic: Official Wii Launch Details

I should be jumping for joy that my family can afford sweet high def TVs, but not when it means *I* can't afford BIG DAMN TRUCKS at launch.

Come on, everyone knows it's not trucks but tubes.

They just announced that component cables will be available for $30 at launch, but only available from online retailers.  This is ridiculous.  These things better be on sale a few days earlier than the Wii console I so can have them on day one of the console.  I don't want to play Zelda in some laughably poor resolution (will the composite still display it in widescreen?) for the first week I own my Wii.  Why does Nintendo have to announce something so awesome and then just sour it a little?  It's like a gymnast who nails a landing and gets a perfect score, and then he flips off the judges and cusses them all out, ruining his chances of winning the medal.  Nintendo announces something that makes you so happy, and then they just make you wanna call them up and say, "You guys are stupid!  You could be doing x, y, and z so much better!"
