WiiLoaded.com - Wii Forum and News

Miss anything this week? The News WiiLoad has got you covered.

Last week I told you guys to expect changes to the WiiLoad. Well here they are. The noticeable one? There's no more Snippets since WiiLoaded is taking a more pro-active role in reporting news. The other? This entire issue has been written in HTML. Not that myCode stuff. Why? Well there's a reason but I can't mention anything yet.

Speaking of which, I thought you guys would want to know that the staff is hard at work in brainstorming and developing new things for the site. If you didn't already know, the site hasn't yet been "officially" launched. This will happen on November 19, Wii launch day. So expect some changes and improvements then, and the days to follow.

For those of you who havn't been to the site in the past week, WiiLoaded became very popular with the digg crowd. z6joker9's Guide to Finding a Wii at Launch was passed around the web and popped up on sites everywhere including Yahoo!'s new Wii section. While Majordomo saw that IGN had Twilight Princess listed as 1-2 players. With this information I wrote an article, which sparked arguments and heated debates everywhere.

Normally I'd go on mentioning what happened in the news, but I'm doing this update late and don't feel like writing much. It's not like you guys even read this anyways.
