Now, this may just be a coincidence, but I'm starting to believe all these Wii rumors going around as we get more of them. This newest rumor comes in the form of a picture that I saw over at Nintendo's Wii site. After navigating through the Wii site to see if anything would relate to an October 2nd (10/2/06) release date, I stumbled upon this picture that is shown to the left. Now, some of you have probably already noticed it when reading the article title and looking straight at the picture. 47 Comments

Ubisoft has said that RED STEEL is coming out in November. So why would it be an October release date when it is supposed to be a launch title...

The problem is that 101 is not an unusual number. It could be just a coincidence. And of course Aaron is right, games come out on Tuesdays, not Sundays. But then again, it may be Nintendo sending us a clue. I guess will find out.

I'm disappointed with you Frozen for not linking to a source. Because I recall in the forums this was posted in the forums before here.

There also appears to be a calendar in the actual gameplay on the wall. And the date says, yep, you guessed it, 1!

Sorry, but I did not see your thread at all, and I have no issue with linking to our forums, heck it is better if I would see your thread before hand.
I've just been on a spree for finding Wii Rumors (heck, even creating them myself), and went to Nintendo's Wii site, scouried it like hell - saw the image and such and it hit me. I also checked the hex to make sure there were no hidden messeges in there either (there were none that I could find). I'll be sending a copy of this to you in your PM box just in case you do not read this - I honestly did not see your thread, heck I didn't know anyone else knew about this!

Thats just too much of a coincidence. Nintendo probably thought that maybe someone smart would pick up on it and guess what you did. Good job. I'm hoping that this is real and that Nintendo really has just been toying with us this entire time.

i think the release date is 10/2 with all the clues and rumors it might really be 10/2!!!

Haha, nice effort, but did you read back what you typed? I could've said that the Wii will launch Oct 2 on the day they announced the name change => Wii=WII=VVII=10+2=Oct 2nd.
Why doesn't QJ start a sweeps for picking Wii launch day, I'm tipping Nov 4th in US

in relation to aarons comments about games only releaseing on tuesday is not true in fact nintendo is releasing almost all of its Q4 games on a monday. so there is a possibility it may realease on a sunday.

audacious deduction...fun to read, not going to happen though because it's a sunday. A launch the first couple weeks in october sounds pretty accurate and appealing tho

You're trying WAY too hard. First off, US 101 is a California highway (hense the shield-shape), I drive on it everyday. I have no idea why that girl would be wearing that shirt but anyway. I've seen shirts like that for other highways. I thought the 1st part of your little 'discovery' was stupid but the 2nd borders on retarded. Drop the conspiracy theories. Nintendo will announce the price and release date this September. It will obviously ship between mid to late September at the earliest and early to mid December at the latest. If I had to guess I would say it'd sell for $200 and be in stores around the middle or end of November probably on a Tuesday. Not much longer regardless.

Either you over-analyze stuff or you're a genius. Guess we'll find out come TGS.

so october "I think" is the launching month BUT what you made have NO sense and is not related to the release!

In Japan "Final Fantasy" is typically written in all caps. It's not to weird to occasionally see it written that way in American press releases and other official documentation.

10=X in roman numbering NOT VV, and someone already used that argument on IRC days ago, so it's not even your findings even.

Just let him be prould of using other peoples findings in an attempt to make himself look smart. Why would you make the release date the actual name of the system? So stupid....

Congratulations Justin. That was a great discovery with good detective skills. Let's see if your find holds up with Nintendo's word.

He Didnt Say VV = 10. He Said V+V = 10 Which IS Correct. And I must say it is rather... suspicious. Why would Nintendo pick such a stupid name. It has more meaning than we think. and I think V V i i makes perfect sense. Wii will change the way we think of gaming. October 2nd will change the way we think of gaming.
