In this rather short video, Miyamoto demonstrates just how the Wii will push your disc out like it was its first time, treating it with the gentle ease only a world-class lover could provide. I watched could watch this a million times.

Fun. Already seen slot loading drives accept and reject full size discs many times though. What I want to see is how it will accept and eject GCN discs. :(
Although... I could still watch that movie many times over just for the sake of seeing Shiggy ;)

shiggy is holding a game cube disc in his hand... wheres part 2 of this clip?

The disc is ejected so far that you can tell that the mechanism extends to a point where accepted GC discs would be no problem. Cool.

So the Wii -gently- ejects?
Good to know. ;D

Isn't the slot for the GC games within the little panel where the controllers plug in for it?
I could be horribly mistaken tho.

As the other commenters said, I really want to see the Wii working with GameCube discs.

What'd ya expect? For the Wii to spit out the disks like the PSP once did?

Anyone remember the Apple G4 Cube? (was that the name?)
I like the toaster output from that. But how will the gamecube disc eject. It's so tiny(8cm) that if it comes out that it might fall off. The 12 cm disc comes out about 60% so I guess it could still hold it out.

I must say, for me, this really emphasizes again just how small the Wii is. Seeing the disc pop out for the first time, I found myself thinking "Wow, is that some kind of crazy mega-sized disc there or something?"

My day is now complete, btw, does anyone need any strawberry milk?
