Like I said, I am skeptical about the truthiness(go Colbert Report!) of this date, but it does fit in with the Nintendo's statement that its console coming out of the fourth quarter of this year.

Yeah of course it fits in with the Q4 plan, but for all we know, Nintendo could be planning to release the Wii in December.

Hopefully though, it will be early Novemeber.

My brother talks to me about all the game magazines he reads (he has to have like six subscriptions to various ones) and I admit to being high most of the time while he talks to me about these things, but I could swear he keeps mentioning a Thanksgiving-week projection for the Wii.

Umm is Thanksgiving in November or December? (Not American)

It's in November, you dirty foreign scum.

November. Generally the Thursday a week or so before December starts. The day after Thanksgiving is also the biggest shopping day of the year in the US, so having a system come out shortly before then would benefit from that rush.

Assuming enough units were produced.

Thanks, Imperialist American Dog!
Oh and thanks Shinryuu as well for the more specific date.

Edit: This mentions the next gen consoles so I suppose it goes here.
I'd buy it.
