Minna no Joushikiryoku Terebi just sounds like a Wii version of Otona no Joshikiryoku Training DS.
I'd expect it to be a full Wii game, rather than a downloadable channel.

Maybe Minna no whatever could be Nintendo's answer to Buzz?

I wonder if that Kirby game is the one that was announced for GC ages ago using the SSBM engine.... maybe it uses the Brawl one now?

Hmm, that TV knowledge thing sounds like Hot Seat Trivia on the Foxtel games channel. Perhaps Wii owners will get a set of trivia questions each week, and it will go towards a score like on the voting channel. BTW, I'm apparently 8.6m away from popular opinion.

Animal Crossing could be the biggest thing of the year. If Nintendo make a MMO out of this it could become the next WoW as people just seem to love this game.
Although I don't see how they could make a MMO (adding content and updates) without annoucing some form of storage means. Nintendo really really really need to annouce a cheap 4 gig external HDD or some form of SD intergame workings.

The absence of Pilotwings similarly hurts me.
But Animal Crossing yay, etc. I have to put the DS one down first, though.  Wonder if it'll link with the Wii version.

^ wouldn't think so, but you never know
Apart from the other great titles from Ninty Wii this year, AC will have to be fantastic to keep up (although i don't doubt how awesome it could be)

Awesome, Nintendo need to bring out their second wave of games so its good to see some form showing. I still think that they need some new IPs and to buy out some smaller 3rd parties to solidify the Wii's software line up.

Animal Crossing MMO now featuring unlimited items, massive cities, millions of players... that is, as long as you have all of their friend codes entered.
Ugh.

I'd hope they would have a main common area where people can interact, trade, auction and collect items and you would be able to build back in your own town. Friend's code then being used to allow people to visit you.
I would imagine it would be a 'strict' level of interaction with 'random' players, unless you have their friend's code.
I do like Nintendo's idea of having world wide 'gaming' interactions without any 'real' interaction. I think it can work and Animal Crossing hopefully will show that.

If anything the restricted 'all members' area would be like the Pokemon trading center - no 'real' communication. Just the ability to trade items, buy things, etc. There will be no central hub to hang out and talk.
Even with these restriction it *could* be awesome. Imagine if they allow a group of 'friends' (all have each others FCs) to build a single city where they all live - all the time. So they just share one city where each could invite other friends back to their city to hang out.
That would be brilliant - but probably not 'Nintendosafe' enough so we'll each be stuck with our own town and I'll be banned from all my friends towns because I can't help myself from pulling out their flowers.
