Rumors...Of course we have to tag this under rumors, just look at the VIA link we've got for this post. Checked it? Okay, moving on, rumorreports er... reports that they believe that the Wii should have new channels waiting to surface, unannounced channels, that, *gasp* you don't know about yet.

Anyway, according to them, Nintendo's playing a waiting game on when to reveal the mysterious new channels. Also they say that you should keep an eye on your WiiConnect24 service on the days leading up to Christmas. You should get a gift.

Their source for this juicy bit of rumor? They have a friend from Germany, who works in a legitimate gaming production. Wow that sounds legit. Well you know how rumors work.

Oh and they refer to IGN's interview with NOA's Perrin Kaplan. In it Kaplan had this to say:

We do have a couple of other surprises. You know probably not as big as what you got today, but more details on a couple of different things that I think people... I think your folks will be very pleased about.


Anyway, we're not expecting much from this rumor, but we'll follow this lead. For now think of this as a heads up to prep you guys if in case anything groundbreaking is revealed.

What did we get over WiiConnect24 today? Grr... I just got to work and supposedly there's a "surprise"? I guess I know where I'll be for lunch today.

the interview wasn't necessarily today, it could have been a week ago, did we get a surprise a week ago

too bad engadget didn't cite the date of the interview

I really hope the forcast channel isn't the suprise, something like the web browser would be a great suprise

My router doesn't work anymore, so I still haven't made it online with my Wii.
