2 days before the opening of the IFA 2006 exhibition halls, there is the press conference where the IFA organisers explain how huge the IFA 2006 is going to be, telling lots of statistics. In this video I interview the IFA CTO, which means the actual boss of the IFA 2006, and I also interview the real IFA redhaired girl. They are going to be quite busy during the next week.

The Wii will be backwards compatible with all previous Nintendo consoles. One will possibly be able to log online to buy old NES, SNES, N64 and GameCube games as downloads. Possibly one will be able to connect an external usb2 harddrive to the Wii to thus have external storage space for the Wii to be able to download big N64, GameCube and Wii games on-demand directly from Nintendo online, thus saving money on useless resellers and other businesses that make games retail prices so high.

This is a fun game where you hold the Wii controller as you would hold a paper airplane and you are thus controlling it around in this Pilotwings-like environment. The controller feels just perfectly precise and usefull in this game, thus proving that the controller really works well.

Some profetionnal drummers were hired to play some drums the whole day using the Wii Drums game and a Wii controller in each hand.. It seems to kind of work, but there might be some very slight delay or some other way of synchronizing the sounds that made it sometimes sound a bit unnatural. Watch the video and judge for yourself. I would else think that this kind of game would be simply awesome. Imagine mixing this with Wii Orchestra, Wii keyboard, Wii guitar and more instruments, and imagine if you could create extremely original music this way..
