WiiWare goes live!

As we anticipated, Nintendo waited until the last possible moment to reveal the details on WiiWare's U.S. launch. In a press release which describes WiiWare as the "most democratic environment in industry history," Nintendo confirmed the six titles that launched with the download service today -- and it looks like the leaked information from the weekend was spot-on:

• LostWinds -- 1000 Wii Points
• Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles: My Life as a King -- 1500 Wii Points
• Pop -- 700 Wii Points
• Defend Your Castle -- 500 Wii Points
• V.I.P. Casino: Blackjack -- 700 Wii Points
• TV Show King -- 1000 Wii Points

So it's finally up -- hurray! Monday mornings haven't felt quite this optimistic in some time! Have any of you lot already downloaded yourself some WiiWare?
