Nintendo announces Japanese Wii price!
Nintendo has announced the Japanese Wii price! That's $225US. I'm still banking on $200US. Same report at GamesIndustry.biz... they expect to sell 6 Million units by March.
As well, I'll thrown in another report that the Wii-mote will be used to control the Opera Web Browser. Hmmm.... Opera browser, Wii-mote... gesture control? Sounds neat, but I still think we'll need a bluetooth keyboard.

13 Titles Confirmed for Wii Launch
This article claims that there will be 13 confirmed titles for Wii launch. I think it will be more. I'm sure Wii tennis will be good, but I think it will need a bit more polish as the innovation of using the controller as a racquet will be short lived.

Wii Classic Controller
Here's a hi-res scan of the new Wii Classic Controller. Not very pretty, or very ergonomic looking either... Very much like a SNES pad.
PS3 Controller
Here's a first look at the new PS3 controller. Not much of a departure from the original. What surprises me the most is that it now has Pitch, Yaw, and Roll built in... hmmm... trying to catch Nintendo?.... As well, the controller has apparently lost vibration its vibration abilities. What have they done? In an attempted move to "copy" nintendo, they lost the vibration function for "pitch, yaw, and roll"? How gimmicky is that?
