More Wii-ly cool news

posted on Thursday, May 25, 2006 at 2:48 PM by Westlee Harrington
Joystiq posts an interesting rumor: what if the Wiimote has a microphone built into the controller? Combined with the speaker, which we already know about, this could open up the possibility of VoIP support on Wii's online gaming!

Wii-haters, you almost had support from one of the top Nintendo bigwigs -- no less than Shigeru Miyamoto liked the name Revolution at first, but then slowly warmed to the name Wii. -- or so says 1up.

And finally, Joystiq reports that Opera has been confirmed as the browser of choice on the Nintendo Wii.

Wizky: Nice, I've reall wondered if they were going to put a mic in the controller. I hope it's not an attatchment, because that would mean no nunchuk + VoIP games. ...woah! I beat Mecha Mario!
Grimblade: Wizky -- you mean Madman_Mario? Well, if you can't beat him you're pretty hopeless, seeing as how he has been banned from commenting.
im unstoppable: haha, that guy was a prick
