Marshall Leslie makes us notice that we were missing a gameplay screen in the archive for the M2 version of D2, so he has sent it to us. Below you can see this “new” screen that we have added in the D2 M2 archive. Thanks Marshall!
Wii Channels Menu (Beta)
Two months before the North American launch of the Nintendo Wii, the ‘Big N’ revealed a beta for the wii channels menu to the public for everyone’s jawdropping comfort. It’s in japanese but you get the picture.
Top left to top right: Disc channel, Mii channel, Photo channel, Wii shop channel.
Middle left to middle right: Weather Channel, News Channel, Internet channel, Donkey kong VC game.
Bottom left to bottom right: Unknown VC game, Super mario world VC game, Legend of Zelda: Link to the past VC game, Super Mario 64 VC game.
One strange thing I observed here is that the beta contains a digital clock towards the bottom centre of the screen. I find that strange because it was removed when released on the wii itself but then was added back in when firmware update 3.0 launched almost one year later, how abnormal.
Virtua Tennis Wii?
The last issue of Official Nintendo Magazine UK arrived at Cubed today, and inside they found an interesting interview with Steve Lycett, executive producer at Sumo Digital, the software house that created Sega Superstars Tennis. He said that, at the beginning, the Wii version was a Virtua Tennis Wii prototype:
We do some prototyping on a potential Wii version of Virtua Tennis 3 and whilst we’re doing that we make all the characters have big heads. SEGA pay us a visit and on seeing this suggest we pop in Sonic instead of a big-headed Federer. As such, potential character defamation cases are avoided and the seeds of SEGA Superstar Tennis are born.
It would be nice to see the big-headed Federer, though.

Super Smash Bros Brawl: removed music?
Thanks to some hack work, someone found out that there were more songs planned for appearing in Super Smash Bros Brawl, but they never made it. We dont know why they were taken out, but it could be because of copyright issues.
To hear how they would sound like, go to YouTube, and search for lost tracks ssbb and you’ll find these songs.
