Its a tough job but somebody has to do it - entertain the poor souls lining up for their Wii. I say poor souls because it was freezing out there - I was wearing 3 layers of Under Armor and was still cold!
My Wii, Zelda and Super Monkey Ball should be arriving today and will bring you a review after (tomorrow or Monday).
Spent the evening with Hector from Kirainet and an independent Spanish film crew going round the Wii hotspots. After being shooed away from Yodobashi in Akihabara, we went to Bic Camera in Yurakucho. One guy at Bic guy tried to shoo us away using a gesture that you would use to shoo away a dog but we ignored him because he looked like a weakling.
Unlike the crowds at Shinjuku for the PS3 launch, there were a ton of TV crew interviewing the crowd. I was interviewed live on Nippon TV for a program called News Zero ( Thanks to Eddie for the screencap ) and for another program on the same channel called Zoom in Super which is apparently due to air next Monday morning at about 7.40AM. Left the scene at about 1AM after the interview - 7 hours wearing armor in the cold was enough for me for one day.
