It says they no longer have the Kawasaki license. You know, the vehicles they happen to be driving in the game? @pistolpete

Its a shame Nintendo couldn't get the license, the Kawasaki ads, in my opinion, added to the overall feel of the game - in the sense it was like a waterski sports event one would see on ESPN. Ohhh well. Bah!

If they're playing Wave Race on the VC, doesn't it mean they have a Wii already? I dont know, I just think it'd be smarter to advertize a new game or something.

It's just a thought, but Sin & Punishment wouldn't be that hard to transfer either, axe the subtitles and swap the screens. @Kuefler – its true text compression is different, but Nintendo made the image swap for both the US and Japanese (pictured) versions of the game.
