  • DAMN YOU WII!

    The Nintendo Wii, I got one for Christmas... I was estatic. So, naturally I have been playing alot.... And discovered that the Wii is not a Game Consol...


    It's a cleverly disguised excersize machine!


    I spent HOURS playing Wii Sports before exhaustion forced me into bed last night. I'm all achey now....

    My back, shoulders, arms, my entire upper body feels like it's been through an extream workout without proper stretching...



    And I have to work in two and a half hours.

    Aren't there regular controllers out there? That's a big reason why I won't get a Wii; I hate exercising when gaming. I have a nice comfy chair thats used for my gaming sessions. Fits my drinks perfectly.

      Umm...you don't HAVE to make great big sweeping motions with your Wii controller. Most times, a simple flick of the wrist will do. Keep that in mind, the next time you play with your Wii.

        I'm the exact opposite.

        One reason I'm mad about Red Steel and LoZ:TP is I *WANT* 1:1 sword movements!

        I don't mind 'working out' while playing, as long as the controls are 1:1 and responsive.

          That's the thing. They CAN be, but they don't have to be.

            I know, I'm just a bastard and very much want it to be 1:1 because, as a fencer, I prefer such things to canned movements. ^_^

            I'm waiting to see if they actually get some good sword games for it that allow non-canned moves before I go for it.

              Screw you all! Boxing is hard!

              I'm in so much pain right now. Figures I walk into the store, and it's pretty much destroyed. I spent all day restocking shelves, and stayed two hours late to finish. My body hates me...

                    My friend has a wii. We wii all over the lounge room and, often, swing our arms crazily while wiiing.

                    Many more where that came from.

                      I've been blaming them since the name change.

                      The funny part? all the shipping boxes for them are still labeled "Revolution".

                      Makes me think once again that the only reason they did the name change was to mess with the retailers.

                          I think they did it for the publicity. Just think about how many jokes that people have made about the Wii that would not have been made if it was called the Revolution. It's free publicity because we all have childish minds and still laugh to ourselves anytime somebody says "penis".

                              Not just any anus......URANUS!

                              I always love chit chatting about star signs and saying "I'm an Aquarius. Did you know Aquarians are ruled by the planet URANUS?"
