Well, I didn't sleep today so I could watch all of the them and I was the first person at gamestop to preorder the deluxe set when they opened. So now to wait the 66 days until release and maybe sleep.

If anyone wants to know what they're saying at any specific point in the first vid, or if it hasn't been translated already...let me know! I can understand quite a bit of it ^_^;
For the most part he's talking about features compared to the Wii. He says there's a camera and mic on the hand held, and that there is more than just upgraded graphics in the system as a whole. I think he even says something like 'even if you're by yourself playing, it's okay cause you can connect with people online' =w=
also in the first one, is it me or does it look like the system is like..photoshopped/added later into his hands when he presents it?
