One of TGS's let downs was non-playable Super Monkey Ball. Well, it was playable, but you had to be wearing a grass skirt and covered with plastic fruit. Booth companions on stage demonstrated the title's fun factor. Everyone else kinda stood around.

Next-Gen's Tim Rogers heard from Toshihiro Nagoshi that the title wasn't playable because of lighting conditions at the show. Meaning, weird lighting and flash photography totally screws up the Wii-mote. Nagoshi adds, "At home, people aren't likely to be using flash photography on their own televisions, so it won't matter, in the long run."

That being said, he thinks the Wii is "great," but when asked what system he plans on making his next game for, he replied, "Definitely not the Wii." Brian Ashcraft
