Wii in Norway

[Adrian DX]

Yay, tomorrow at 09:00 AM, I'm going to be in Lillestrøm, playing Wii! (Yaaaaaay!)

I think this is the first time ever a Nintendo machine has been showed off by Norwegian Nintendo (Bergsala) in Norway before launch. It's gonna be awsome :D

The playable games are gonna be:
Zelda Twillight Princess
Wario Ware
Trauma Center
Wii Sports..

Can't wait!:bouncy:

Any of the (few) other Norwegian members on here planning on going?

[Nintendork]

Take some pictures of trauma centre if you can. Not seen enough of that game.

[Wolf]

Wii has also been getting tons of great publicity lately up here.

[triforcemario]

And what about Spain? Why doesn't Ninty show some love for Spain, the country were the most Pokémon games are sold in Europe.

[blender]

I think nintendo dont like catholic countries. Not a very good company policy but a policy nonetheless. At least god loves everyone equally except for the snakes

[Adrian DX]

Sure, I'll snap lots of photos of Trauma Center, I've missed some more fotos of that myself.

And on the booth babes... I doubt there will be any *cries*

OoOo Finaly something good about living in Norway :D
OMG! I'm playing wii today, I can't belive it ;O

[DiemetriX]

Adrian DX is on the phone. He is really loving the Wii. I couldn't go >_<
He has taken alot of videos and pictures :) I'll probably host them when he get's back.

[AshMat]

All you Norweigans, (except DiemetriX) can go and DIE!

[Skitter2.9]

I'l be going there shortly :) I'l bring my crappy camera, and take som photos, and maybe a few films.

[Caris]

What a bastard.

(in a nice way)

[Sooj]

Awesome now we can find out if the rumours about having to pay by cash/credit card to be able to play the wii is actually true or not was that only an american precaution?

Anyway, the UK should get our turn in a few weeks time...hopefully!

[colormonkey]

Have you got the local price in Norway? Not a single shop in Denmark has the price, cause Bergsala hasn't announced it yet. But the price is expected to be around 2100 kr. (200 pounds).

I havn't heard of any event in Denmark from Bergsala.

[Skitter2.9]

First of all, sorry for the blurry photos.

Ok, here it goes:
The first sight that met me where this:

And then:
http://i7.photobucket.com/albums/y277/larsbk/Electroworld/IM000342.jpg
WTF?! :shock:
it wasn't there, I asked a dude, and he said it was press only and that the wiis where on their way to germany :cry:

[AshMat]

So.. you didn't get to play, or see a Wii? Adrian had to sit on a train for 7 hours... oh god.

[Twilight]

It´s been confirmed that Wii will be playable for public at the DigiExpo event here in Finland in the beginning of November. Hopefully I´ll be able to go...

[Hellfire]

Now that's some messed up shit, I would sue someone.

[Nintendork]

And lose savagely.

[Skitter2.9]

So.. you didn't get to play, or see a Wii? Adrian had to sit on a train for 7 hours... oh god.

They where sent away before the public could enter. That was about 2 pm gmt+1. Maybe he played it? ::shrug:

I met a girl that worked at bergsala (I think xD). She had played the wii, she told me that the wii wasn't finished yet. The blue light she told me was curently not implented in the console, and the light of those who where here today where erm.. "fake" (in lack of better word).
Maybe the light will flash when when loading or something?

Anyway, I'm happy, I got to meet mario :yay: http://i7.photobucket.com/albums/y277/larsbk/Electroworld/IM000351.jpg

Now that's some messed up shit, I would sue someone.
QFT =/

[Gaijin von Snikbah]

Too bad you didnt get to play the Wii.

What is the deal about the light? Did the girl say anything else?

[The fish]

"GAme on" science museum, london town

Is it playable there, and when?

[DiemetriX]

Adrian got to play the Wii. He had a press pas ;)

[Adrian DX]

Just got home from Lillestrøm (07:30) And yeah the Wii was for press only, but I got a press pass for myself and 2 other friends. We got tons and tons and tons of pictures and videos, we captured at least 10 minutes video of trauma (including the intro video and a couple of operations) and we got a littlebit of everything there was to see. Nice close-ups of the Wii too. I'll get the best of it posted when my damn thief-friend can give me my 4 GB SD back >_<

Btw. Skitter, you should have said hi, I was hanging around the Wii booth long after they sent the Wii's back to germany =)
Heh, that reminds me.. they also had the "Download 1 of europs 10 most wanted pokemon" thingys there, but there were very few people who wanted any pokemon, so me and a friend grabbed all our GBA games and transferred all 10. The guys with the machine said it was ok since noone else wanted any xD

But now I'm gonna sleep

OOOh and one last thing... The Wii is <ultra-positive word I couldn't find>! :shock:

[darthbane2k]

LOL! I had 5 hours with Wii at the London event a month or so ago plus loads of free booze at my disposal!

But I agree, Nintendo NEED to start letting the public try this.

[Caris]

So is Zelda good?

Who is the guy with the long hair, anybody here?

[Isindil]

I was there together with Adrian DX (the thiefish friend).
BTW, Adrian is the one with the playing Twilight Princess at the end of substeinar's movie.

[Kuluxumusu]

I was there too, playing the Wii for about five and a half hour, and I loved every second of it. It's fantastic. I wrote an article at Wii-FAN.net, but I am not yet allowed to link to it. It is titled "Wii på Electroworld". It is in Norweagian, so I guess most of you can't read it. But there's some pictures there you can check out. ;)

Good to see the blue light is turned on with these systems and still existant... Why is there an odd black dot on the white casing that enhouses the Wii consoles and television screens?
