So, not only are the good people of North America enjoying an August re-branded as 'Metroid Month' for their Wiis, Nintendo has also snuck in the Wii Ware channel.
Wii Ware - is the channel given over to 'small' and 'independent' companies (or really bright individuals with a lot of time) to upload their own Wii-based creations in order to find fame and fortune.
Why both Metroid Month and the Wii Ware channel should have to be USA-centric is beyond SPOnG this morning. Come on, the world's one single, interconnected item now - there are Wiis everywhere. Frankly, we're appalled that a globalizing organisation such as the mighty Nintendo can't switch on channels and get us a look at the Metroid Prime: 3 Corruption on the same day as our good friends over the water.
But apparently, the UK won't get Wii Ware until next year...

Nintendo are always trying to screw us, honestly if it wasnt for resident evil 4 i wouldnt even be playing the wii that much, there is a severe games drought atm on the console and recently ive been playing the 360 a LOT more, i love it.

ah billabong,good to c u back on the forums.
i dont really think the fact we are not gettin wiiware till next year is a big deal,joe public will have to use for the dev side to it.
u are rite about the game shortages atm. the way i see it tho is that every console takes a good year or two to get it its stride because devs need to get use to the system and games need to be better to sell because of the comptetition out there.
the 360 took a good 2years to get only 2/3 must haves.im looking forward to smash, zak and wiki , galaxy, truma centre.
the 360 is enerting its third generation software phase atm and its lookin very strong indeed.so if it hasnt broke then 360 owners will be having a good year.
