**Albert, if you don't like this than Please just delete this topic****** Anyways, Since Nintendo was so bold and made a very innovative system some series have had to adjust. Most of these adjustmens have been good but some have been bad. For that reason I have gotten a blockbuster game card that let's me rent as many videogames for a month as a want. Than an idea struck me: Many other video game magazines add demos to their magazines( ex: Offical Xbox Magazine) and this would be a perfect time for Nintendo Power to start that with Wii games. I say that we write a letter (That Albert approves) and send it to Nintendo Power suggesting this idea. We could sign it from Wii Together, therefore helping many people that want to try games and helping the site. Does anybody else like this idea? If youd o here's the format I think the letter should be in: Dear Nintendo Power, Blah Blah Blah Stuff about demo Disks blah blah If enough people like this we could write a letter and someone will send it(I might be able to). Again, Albert if you don't like this feel free to delete this thread.

This actually is a good idea. We could all sign our names at the end of it, sort of like a petition. Hopefully Nintendo would listen to it, and start doing it.

Well Nintendo promised quite a while ago that with the Wiiconnect24 service in action developers can simply send demos to your Wii console while it is not even active.
Personally I'd rather see Nintendo come through with these Wiiconnect24 features that were promised and step it up, Now.

Albert makes a good point, it would be nice to be able to dwonload demo's off the Wii itslf. But it would be better to save extra space for other channels. Iv'e already got my first screen filled, so yeah I'm in.

I see what your saying Albert, but this would probably be a lot easier for developers. Also, that migth not come out for a while. Nihingo, That is a good idea. Whoever COntributs to this letter, we will sign your username. Ok I will make the main layout for the letter. If you want to add anything just quote and modify the letter. If you don't like something someone writees say it and we'll see if other people don't like it. So here it is: Dear Nintendo Power, Nintendo is known to be very inovative and the Wii is no excepation. While this is mainly a good thing, there could be some down sides. Every game is going to have to change; usually for the better but sometimes for the worst. Everyone at Wii Together is sure that when someone is going to buy a Wii game there is one thought in their mind: Will this game work with the Wii? Then the thought struck us: Why doesn't Nintendo Power include a free demo disc with their issue? Many magazines already include this and the Wii would be the perfect time for Nintendo Power to start. From. WiiTogether.proboards49.comI left a lot of space after where I ended for people to add their own stuff. If you do not like what I wrote please tell me and change to what you think is good. So, now get thinking of a good letter!

So, now get thinking of a good letter! Gj dude, It seems pretty well written (omfg only 2 miss-spells) and formal. It just needs a little more to add to it... I'll try and see if I can add something soon. Who else here can write a decent paragraph?

Dear Nintendo Power, Nintendo is known to be very innovative and the Wii is no exception. While this is mainly a good thing, there could be some down sides. Every game is going to have to change; usually for the better but sometimes for the worst. Everyone at Wii Together is sure that when someone is going to buy a Wii game, there is one thought in their mind: Will this game truly use the Wii's innovative new controls in a fun and enjoyable experience? Then the thought struck us: Why doesn't Nintendo Power include a free demo disk with their magazine? Many magazines already include this, and the Wii would be the perfect opportunity for Nintendo Power to start this. Many fans of Nintendo would highly enjoy the advantage of being able to try out some of the games to know if the game is to their taste. It would also benefit profits due to the fact that people may try it and fall in love with it. So please consider this carefully. From, your friends and fans on: WiiTogether.proboards49.comSigned by: Agent 71 Nihongo Yeah, I changed the letter up, added to it, spell checked it, and signed yours and mine names on it. Anything you don't agree with, take off!

OK, I think it is VERY good now but I still want to see if Albert wants to add anything. He is extremely good at writing and he could help. Also, we shouldn't put signed by at the bottom we should put, Some of the people that agree with this, or something like that.

Okay. Well, you can change the "signed by" thing and then we'll see if Albert wants to add anything. After that I guess anyone who wants to sign it will, and we'll send off to Nintendo!

I just thought of something. Nintendo Power is not going to want a long list of names to print in the magazine. We'll just sign it as Wii Together. Dear Nintendo Power, Nintendo is known to be very innovative and the Wii is no exception. While this is mainly a good thing, there could be some down sides. Every game is going to have to change; usually for the better but sometimes for the worst. Everyone at Wii Together is sure that when someone is going to buy a Wii game, there is one thought in their mind: Will this game truly use the Wii's innovative new controls in a fun and enjoyable experience?

It would also benefit profits due to the fact that people may try it and fall in love with it. So please consider this carefully. From, your friends and fans on: WiiTogether.proboards49.comOk so this is what it looks like. Does anybody else want to add some adjustments to it? I'm not going to send it until at least Tuesday just so that Albert and other people can see it and change if they want to.

Okay, I saw this and I need to give advice on the letter format. This is a business you're sending it to and it needs to be in a business format. First we need the address of where it's comming from. Since this site doesn't have it's own location, I would suggest having it be albert's house or one of the mod's location. Then you put it in this format. Nintendo Power (Number, street) (city, state, zipcode) (I would suggest alberts, or someone's name here) (someone's house number, street) (someone's city, state, zip code) To Whom it may concern (or whatever you want there) Allow me to introduce myself. I am (name) and I am writing this letter to represent all of the members of a website called Wii Togehter. (you might want to include the exact URL somewhere in the letter, but just put whatever you want here. I also suggest a brief description of the site) (after the letter, put this) Sincerely (Name) (your position, either it be Founder, mod, or decicated member of wii together) To whoever is writing the letter and putting their name in it. In this letter, you're representing everyone on the site. They might write back or not. So just keep the site in mind. But yeah, I support the idea since I recently started getting nintendo power, lol.

But yeah, I support the idea since I recently started getting nintendo power, lol. The thing is we don't want this to be ane xact add for the site. Maybe the first time we mention we Together we quickly just say it is a Wii Forum or a growing Wii forum. I don't think they'd print a letter that is just an add with a request tacked on. We have to jus kind of put it in there. But I like the format.

Don't forget to mention good o'l meI do want it from Wii Together, but I don't want a whole paragraph saying what Wii Together is. It's from Wii Together and we mention it but we don't go into much detail about it. Just mention it's a Wii forum.
