Nintendo plays the spy game, reveals release date for Wii

wiimote.pngIn accordance to Nintendo’s tradition of cryptic comments they recently included the following in a game release schedule (with no mention of the Wii):

Perhaps the secret to the launch information for Wii is somehow encoded in the text of this news item.

If thats not a PR stunt for the internet then I’ve lost my touch. And John Scalzo of Gaming Target took them seriously, he sat down and tried to crack the secret. Here’s what he came up with.

The fourth quarter begins on October 1. Now look at the list. At least one game is released every Monday in the fourth quarter except for the following dates: October 2, November 20 and November 27.

November 27 is after Black Friday, so it’s out. November 20 is after the launch of the PS3, so that’s out too. That leaves us with October 2.

The Wii will launch on October 2, you read it here first.

Well this now competes with those November theories out there.
