Ooops! The Wii, well, Official Nintendo Magazine was wrong. The publication recently ran this juicy quote: "At the time of going to print, Wii games will output in 720i and 720p - 720i is your standard TV picture."

Looks like Namco's Ridger Racer 7 is too taxing on the PlayStation 3. We caught this poor floor rep tending to the overheated, bugged out PS3 that shit the bed during the first day of TGS. Yeah, we know this sort of thing happens all the time when you've got unfinished code running on unproven hardware, but we also know that even though you've got a Bravia television and a high end PlayStation 3, your cooling solution is wicked ghetto.
