Tsk tsk, not many people online here right now, former Nintendo fans get!

Still PR talk at first, as expected.

Yeah, the Eurogamer guy seems to have a bit of an attitude problem though.

The DS and Wii will introduce intuitive controls, and the new world of videogames will rapidly welcome digital immigrants and their ilk. Adults and girls are mentioned as key targets.

PR speak continues

Now he's talking about the consistent sales of Brain Training - it sells around 60,000 units a week steadily in Germany.

LOL that's even more than Japan.

That is awesome, shows that Nintendo knew what they were doing when they created Nintendo DS even with all the naysayers complaining that it was doomed because of the "non-gamer" strategy.

GoldenPhoenix · « **Reply #60 on:** August 22, 2006, 11:52:03 PM »

OMG THE MEGA TON. English Training for Nintendo DS. That is all I needed to get from the show.

Mario · « **Reply #61 on:** August 22, 2006, 11:53:02 PM »

English Training for DS should be released in the US. It'd become the #1 faq on Gamefaqs. "how do i english someone plz help"

BigJim · « **Reply #64 on:** August 23, 2006, 12:05:01 AM »

Big Brain Academy, New Super Mario Bros. LOUD MUSIC IN MY EARS. Hotel Dusk 215 (adventure, side on). English Training. Starfox Command. Tomb Raider Legend (also looks side-on). Sudoku Master. Brain Training again. That's it.

GoldenPhoenix · « **Reply #66 on:** August 23, 2006, 12:08:56 AM »

demo of Zelda DS

BigJim · « **Reply #70 on:** August 23, 2006, 12:13:52 AM »

Dear lord - dancing men! And women. They're flailing around the stage with Wii controllers. One of them looks a bit like Vin Diesel. Tom has identified the music as N.E.R.D. - I'm not sure why he knows that.

Mario · « **Reply #71 on:** August 23, 2006, 12:15:05 AM »

LOL!

Mario Strikers Wii confirmed!

BigJim · « **Reply #72 on:** August 23, 2006, 12:15:10 AM »

Now they're demoing the Wii. More comedy Double-you-Double-eye from the translator, despite Bernd explaining the phonetic spelling. They're explaining the console to a seven year old girl.

"Do you play games sometimes?" "Sometimes, yes." "Do you own a Nintendo DS?" "No." Oops.

BigJim · « **Reply #73 on:** August 23, 2006, 12:16:22 AM »

demoing wii tennis with the girl.

BigJim · « **Reply #74 on:** August 23, 2006, 12:17:30 AM »

The boss of Nintendo Germany is on stage to introduce a new sports title. "Sport is currently the new trend at Nintendo." A message from German footballer Philip Lahm. He's playing on the Wii in a football strip.
