umm....I have a wii ^_^* it helps when you work at a gamestop for the hollidays. I think the people that put their wii-motes through their TVs and whatnot deserve what they got. My theory is that it started with someone faked a video or something to get attention. why the hell else would someone video themselves playing their wii SO OFTEN that so many of them have video "evidence" I think you'd have to be either insane, or have a REALLY weak grip and you don't have your wrist through the strap...okay, honestly I could rant about it, but why bother? I have my wii and I love it, I just wish there was more I could do with it right now.

People kept telling me about the Wii-mote/TV encounters when I told them I wanted one.... Honestly, it's not that hard to watch what you're doing and make sure you're holding on properly. o__O;;;

you know how many times I've let go of my wii-mote accidentally? i'll be honest, one time. on my first day. and you know what happened? nothing. you know why? I had the strap....okay, i'm not going to follow that word with "on" but still. it worked. Also, you don't have to swing the wii-mote like a retarded babboon with a seizuring problem.

Yeah, I think that's the majority of the problem... people swinging them around with reckless abandon (HAH, don't get to use that phrase very often XD) and acting like... well.. .acting like total idiots. If people would actually chill and use the thing properly, we wouldn't have a problem. ^^;

Lol.
The Wii's a great machine. It really is cool. Kinda.
Probably a LITTLE overhyped... a LITTLE. While it's a great console, it's far from the perfect machine Nintendo made it out to be.
But then I'm only angry at the Wii because the Wii is region-locked, while the PS3 is region-free: a very clever move by Sony, and after Nintendo's promise of a region-free machine... a poor choice by the Big N.
Also, I don't get why people are crying about Wii Play being such a bad game. IT'S NOT REALLY A GAME. People are giving it low scores because "It sucks as a game"... and people are crying about how it comes with a "free Wii-mote". WRONG. Just WRONG. THE WII-MOTE DOESN'T COME WITH THE GAME. THE GAME COMES WITH THE WII-MOTE. You're NOT BUYING the GAME. THAT'S NOT YOUR MAIN PURCHASE. You're BUYING A WII-MOTE. THE GAME IS JUST A BONUS, STUPID.
lol. I'm sick to death of people going "Oh that was a disappointing game, I can't believe I forked out so much for it".... YOU DIDN'T. YOU BOUGHT A WII-MOTE. YOU JUST HAPPENED TO ALSO GET A GAME. YOU WANNA KNOW WHY I KNOW??? BECAUSE WE GOT WII PLAY BEFORE YOU AMERICANS (a world first! XD). AND THAT WAS THE DEAL, BUY A WII-MOTE AND IF YOU PAY AN EXTRA $10 YOU CAN GET WII PLAY WITH IT. IF YOU THINK YOU'RE BUYING IT AS A GAME, YOU ARE STUPID AND SHOULD SELL YOUR FACE.
...really. You are. XD
Apart from that... it's a decent console. No big support for those of us with higher tech systems though: no optical ports for surround sound (just supports Pro Logic II)... no HDMI ports... just, beh.
The controller's pretty cool. At times it can be a bit finnicky... SOMETIMES. Like, 2/10 times. The rest it's good.
And if ever there was a console to get non-gamers in on the action, it's the Nintendo Wii. When someone sees you swinging that little controller around like an idiot... they want to do the same too. XD It's ease of use is highly appealing.
Good work, Nintendo!

So I got one of these wonder-consoles yesterday (The guy at Target told me they'd JUST put them out a few minutes prior to my arrival and subsequent request to purchase one), and I have one thing to say:
Wiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii!!! *goes back to playing XD*

I got WarioWare: Smooth Moves, but I've been so busy I've had no time to play. Sadness!

YES. At least my business this weekend is the good kind, though. There'll always be time to play after tonight. ^^
