    Wii Playable at Nintendo Fusion Tour

    Nintendo just confirmed that the Wii will be playable during their Nintendo Fusion Tour.

    The cross-country tour, which starts Sept. 27 and stars Hawthorne Heights, will feature multiple Wii consoles hooked-up and ready to play as well as "DS games like Elite Beat Agents".

    Some of the Wii games scheduled to make the tour include Metroid Prime 3: Corruption, Wii Sports, Excite Truck, WarioWare: Smooth Moves and Activision's Tony Hawk's Downhill Jam. The games aren't set in stone, but it sounds like this is one good reason to make the show. I wonder how the Wii announcment is going to effect ticket sales? Brian Crecente
