If I had a Pulitzer I would give it to you Chris.

I watercolor paint and it is expensive. Quality paint will run you 15-25$ for a tube the size of your thumb.

Great article Chris. You managed to make me laugh, even though the article highlights how sad the Wii actually is.
I was initially excited about the Wii, having grown up with the NES and SNES. However, I like a console to allow me to play videogames, not shitty versions of real activities. Soon there'll be a plastic NES controller sleeve to put over the Wii-mote so that playing virtual console games will feel like the "real thing."

I agree with the Nerf gun related one. It's much more fun to use for real than in a game.
Just ask my little brother!

Wii bashing is all the rage now, and for good reason. Nintendo totally lost the plot when they all but took a backward step with their technology. The motion control is ok at best, just random and crap most of the time though. Oh and now they've released an addon that makes the motion control work as it should have done in the first place, AND the added bonus that you'll be buying even more batteries and poluting the environment. A games console made for non-gamers with an amazingly high ratio of shite games to ones even worth playing....

I hate to be that guy, but this article could use some serious syntax editing.

Everyone hates a poindexter.

But the article's still hilarious, so kudos to you, Mr. Antista! Gettin' some good mileage out of that Minority Report 'shop haha.

Why do people hate on the Wii so much? You know, if you don't like it you don't have to play it or read anything about it!
Instead, you can stay in your hate filled world of HARDCORE first-person shooters and action games. You can blow everything up and jerk off as you watch back some 'awesome' head-shot you made for the 50th time.
There is more to life than video games. All those sad xbox and ps3 pricks should get out more and try a little real life.

This is more proof that the wii is a bunch of crap slapped together painted white then polished and given a motion control.

Wii fit good damn it people you don't lose weight for that game. my friend has that and he plays it every damn day he is still in bad shape.
If you people want to lose weight go and walk around or even better kick your neighbor's attack dog so it will chase you around that always works.

If you get a Nerf gun, you'll really want to invest in extra darts to go along with it, they disappear really fast.

Why didn't you put Personal Trainer: Walking for the DS on here. I might as well do a little quick comparison
Game = $45 dollars
DS = $120 DSL or $170 DSI
as opposed to
A Walking Speedometer = $15
Notebook = $0.99 - $1.50
Pencil = Roughly $0.05 each - $1 for a 10 pack
Walking = Free

You would spend about $167.50 more buying the game.

Hahaha great read, to the defense of all those moms and kids buying the Wii, it looks fun and you're active at the same time (flick flick)! I was thinking about getting it a while ago but unlike the 360 there isn't a vast game library. I do want to play Mario Galaxy though lol.

Oh I almost forgot, does anyone remember a game (I think its called) Nerf Wars or something like that on the PC. Best arena shooter, I played that for hours and it never got old, powerups helped.

We hate the Wii because We grew up playing Nintendo games. Do you remember Nintendo's quality seal of approval? Probably not.

Funny that I read this a few weeks after talking to friend (25 at the time) who you coulda mistaken as a rep for nintendo they way he was defending the wii as some sort of miracle workout machine. But what made it so bad is that he REALLY was convinced that the Wii is capable of delivering substantial work out results comparable to actually getting off your ass to do a real one. It was the most hilarious and sad thing I had ever saw, especially to hear form a 25 year old man.
