A correction: The Black Wii releases August 1st, not December 2nd. I never learned how to read. Another shot: http://wii.com/jp/articles/wii-color-kuro/images/mainimg.jpg Anyway, here's that MH3 pack: http://i41.tinypic.com/rhjsc9.jpg [spoiler] http://i43.tinypic.com/2vcygsl.jpg http://i41.tinypic.c...

Pre-order confirmed.

Define momentary freezing. It could be a virus or the drive is failing.

What brand of Hard Drive? See if you can find any of their diagnostic tools to run tests; if it's a failing drive, it probably won't pass anything.

So should we start taking bets now on how much of the text gets removed (AT2) or unvoiced (Cross Edge)?

He then grew up to be a professional Poker player. True story.

Probably a giant misunderstanding but I believe I get your point. I'm talking about the level PRIOR to the details you keep bringing up.
