The release for the Nintendo Wii in Europe will be Decmober 8th at £179 (229 EUR).
Games will cost between £34 and £39 and there will be 15-20 titles available at launch.
Wiimote will cost £29, Nunchuck £14 and the classic controller shell for £14.
Virtual Console games that appeared on-screen included Super Mario
World, The Legend of Zelda: A Link To The Past, Super Mario 64 and
Donkey Kong.
And like the Japanese and American release, the Wii will be packaged with a Wiimote, Nunchuck and a copy of Wii Sports.

Woot a date at last for us. Great prices, nice date. It's not too long after the American one. If i can't bear the wait i'll just get an American Wii.

So this also means that the long and dearly awaited Zelda: Twilight Princess will release on:
Japan: December 2nd.
America: November 19th.
Europe: December 8th.
Woooo!
And and also, the Nintendo Wii will be Multi Regional if the companies want them to be. Nintendo announced that the Wii will be a Multi Regional console and have no Regional locking. That it's up to the Companies whether they make the games multi regional or not.
If you don't know what this means:
Mutli Regional means that a PAL/NTSC or a JAP console will be able to play any of the regions games. So a PAL console can play a NTSC game et cetera.
And what Nintendo mean is that they will make their console, the Wii, Multi Regional and that if a Company allow their game to be Multi Regional, then it will. I.E, Ubisoft could allow Rayman Raving Rabbids to be played by any region on any region console, but Sega might not allow Sonic: The Secret Of The Rings to be Multi Regional and only allowed to be played on it's respective Region console.
So i'm, assuming that Nintendo will release a Multi Regional chart and show which games can be played on which ever reason console and which games cannot.
Fantastic news.
