For Monster Hunter, as you find your way to the monsters, are there smaller "trash" monsters in the world? Or is it like Shadow of the Colossus where there is nothing in between fights?

I'm always annoyed when studios publish screenshots of beautiful games without UI. I somethink that's how the game will end up looking and I'm often disappointed because the final thing is covered in UI.. :(

More important than the grips/buttons - the wire comes out the back, away from the player, instead of the front, towards the player (like the current stupidly designed Classic Controller)

About time they move that cable to the top end.

This may be the first Wii game I bought since I guess Mario Kart or SSBB, forget which one came last.

Does it come with an option to fix the A/B layout when playing NES games on the VC? That seems like the sort of thing that could be added in a system update, but I'd settle for a hardware solution.

So you actually pay an extra penny to buy the bundle instead of getting them both separately? Aren't bundles supposed to be cheaper?
