I was just about to post about a “new Wii to be announced at E3 in LA this week” when this popped up. I can’t say I’m really jazzed about this new controller. We like the Wii because it’s communal and bringing it back down to the controller, like PSP and XBOX means less time watching the same screen. We’ll have to wait and see how it works.
