there's an easter egg on the globe, something about one of the stars being the homeworld of Omar from Pikmin.

Really?!

There was an Easter Egg List floating around the Web but I can't find it. Apparently the Wii's full of them, which is awesome.

But Pikmin is my favourite Ninty Franchise, I'mma go Update.

I don't know if it was an easter egg, or if the Japanese are just cool, but whever it's sunny over Tokyo they get a differently styled sun. No fair.

Not really an Easter Egg.

Easter Eggs are normally Trivial things Developers put into the Game/Software. Mostly they're messages for Family Members.

I don't like it. It doesn't update as often as it should, It came out yesterday so maybe they'll fix it, but when I woke up this morning and saw the same forecast as yesterday morning from 6 am, I was a bit wierded out. Also it said it was going to rain... No rain :wah:

Anyway, if they just allow it to update more often, I'd be happy but at least the internet browser channel comes out on friday. :bigwink:

The Internet Channel is a version of the Opera web browser for use on the Wii by Opera Software and Nintendo. On December 22, 2006 a free beta version of the browser will be released. The final version of the browser will be available in March 2007 and will be free to download until the end of June that year. After this period the browser will cost 500 Wii Points to download.
