Sponge Bob - Wii Release Revealed?

Walmart, everyone's favorite store, has listed a release date for a Wii title. This title, is none other than the notorious SpongeBob: Creature from Krusty Krab. This is one of the only Wii games that I plan not to buy or look forward to, but it is the first Wii title that Walmart had listed with a release date. This release date comes right before Nintendo's favorite release month (November) with it being on October 2nd of this year. Now, without looking at the source (Walmart), I would guess that this is not the Wii (console) release date. This is a pure rumor at this time, much like some of the Wii functions are still a mystery. The game can easily be released on that day if the publishers choose to, and the console can be released a month later. So, will you take this as just a game release date or a hint at when the Wii will be released? I love rumors, but I also hate it when those good rumors turn out as false, so don't hold your breath!

I work at walmart in electronics and we always get the games about a week or so before the system comes out. Also, if anyone has noticed, the PS3 page on walmart.com was finally fixed because of me. I wrote to the sites maintanance crew telling them I was sick of looking at the old boomerang controller they had on their site. I sent them the info on the UK ps3 website that has a whole bunch of nice info and now, 3 weeks later, they finally have it changed.

I am one of the several people who happen to hate Walmart for all the bad that they have done. I won't go into details.

This isn't the Wii release date it's the release date of a game for the Wii. Kameo came out before the Xbox 360 was released so if this game comes out then it will be out before the Wii is released.

#9 - Did you not read what the article said? I clearly stated that the game could be released on this day and not the Wii. I am fully aware that games can, and may be released before the actual console is released, hence my sentence in the article -

The game can easily be released on that day if the publishers choose to, and the console can be released a month later. So, will you take this as just a game release date or a hint at when the Wii will be released?

#11: Yeah, rumors, you either hate them or like them. This was marked as a rumor and not official news, and there are a lot of people who like rumors, you aren't the only person in the world :p

 » ahh, hello??

Sorry, but I think the release is already clear?
You can see on this photo a few articles later, that the Wii should release at 10-21-2006 ??
Or I'm wrong?

Here it is.

I purchased six xbox 360 games and all my wireless controllers 2 weeks before the system came out because I predicted the shortages - and boy am I glad I did. So, it makes perfect sense for the game to come out before the system.

Although, I'm still crossing my fingers on the 10/02 release date :)
