Wii Have A Problem
 

Wii Sports helping the struggling flat panel market, awesome.

Dude I've broken tons of controllers before... well only like... 7 but this is nothin new.


In your own words Bobby, I've seen better.

How retarded do you have to be to accidentally throw a plastic controller at your tv, from several feet away, hard enough to break it? I mean, IQ less than 50 or so? Enough brainpower to sustain a heartbeat and normal breathing functions, but less than is required to maintain functional control of your limbs? Wow...

That's a good point. Breaking a controller is one thing, but breaking a controller by wasting it on your screen is way out there.

I know I just like the title.

I'm all Wii'd out!

I headed down to M3n3c3's GameStop at lunch today and picked up a pair of Wii's... one for me, and one for nKoan (who better pay up when he gets back from Vegas!! :P).

Now all I need to do is draft a legally binding document that I can pass out at my house anytime people come over to play that states if they throw a controller through my TV, they're replacing it. :lol: Or maybe I should just get a 5'x5' sheet of optical quality plexiglass. :lol:

I guess that depends entirely on how many nights are spent on the strip (or in a strip club) :lol:

Thanks again man. I'll call you when I get back into town. Also, FWIW, the Saturn Vue is quite possibly the worst rental car I've ever driven. Its in a close race with the Kia Sephia.

I had a Chevy Cavalier rental in Vegas once, I swear it had been used in a homocide. Smelled like a dead body, and it drove like it had been jumped over a curb at 55.

If it was white it was totally my bad, but what happens in Vegas, stays in Vegas.

There has been a recall on the straps.

Does this mean Nintendo will be buying new TVs for the idiots that broke theirs? :rolleyes:

Nope. Its only for wrist straps.

That comes later during the class action lawsuit. I figure since Nintendo is basically admitting the straps are weak, they're opening themselves up to replacing damaged property. Poor Nintendo... hopefully the judge/jury will recognize that they're addressing the problem in a quick manner and already doing the right thing, instead of making them buy hundreds of TVs.

mariokart64 is getting re-released onto the Wii.......I see a Wii in my future :D

how do you guys like them??

I like it. The virtual console thing is pretty cool, I fooled around with it last night a little.

I wish there were a few more games out, but the system has just been released, so hopefully the games will pick up in the next few months.

I have a great time with my Wii. When it comes to a party system and something even non gamers can all have a blast playing ti wisn out for sure. Can't wait for warioware and mario party.

F mario party, Smash Brothers is gonna be the shit.

Word

Wii have a commercial (NWS for bikini): http://video.google.com/videoplay?do...38642038&hl=en

Every Nintendo game ever is going to be able for purchase... at least that's what I understand. My friend has already downloaded every Zelda game they have released so far.

Up through the N64 I believe. Gamecube games won't be available for download.

Oh yeah my bad. Isn't that because the Wii plays the GC discs?

And there it is...

Fucking litigious-ass America.

Uh, they are doing this now...wtf?

HAHAHA, I'm sure Nintendo's goal was to have every Wii owner sue them...
