The same people who smashed a PS3 a few days ago return to destroy a Wii. We post this to feed the Sony fanboys and present equitable smashing. Frankly, it's a bit boring. How can somebody follow up smashing a $600 PS3, which would sell on eBay for thousands of dollars, with a console that costs $250? That's not upping the ante, that's diminishing returns. Well, hopefully you enjoyed this piece of Canadian performance art, thankfully it'll be another half decade before we have to post something like this again.

1 dude camping out all night for a Wii was talking about how the "smasher" should go out and get laid. More proof that Canada just sucks. Witless "rebel" tendencies. I wonder what they will smash next? Maybe their dicks in drawers..

Wow, what an attention whore. Parents didn't give them much attention growing up, did they?
Several friends and I looked for a Wii this morning and couldn't find a single one. While it's no skin off my back given that they will be resupplied soon enough, the people on the Internet do stuff like this are just selfish. They really don't know how lucky they are to have the luxury of smashing a hapless console.

Wasn't as glorious as the PS3. But still... he got some people annoyed. I was surprised anyone cared that much. Theres tons of these things.

I don't care what you guys think, "smash my wii" definitely sounds the most painful of the three.

Come on guys, this is just a waste, im going to second Brandon's proposel of giving that Wii to Penny Arcade's Child Play. It would have been so much more worthwhile. Show some respect towards other people and help out kids who are sick.

The sledge hammer has soooo been done before! They should be dropping these systems from a good height. At least 25 feet in the air... I'd buy tickets for that!

Love it, Wii audience is laughing... PS3 audience is all >O
I can't believe that Wii took 6-7 hits with a sledgehammer before exploding, that's incredible.

Like Sony or Nintendo care if they break it... They got their money.
Now if it were Microsoft, they'd be upset, because this gamer would not be buying a subscription to Xbox Live.

Other than smashing the product was there some goal he was trying to achieve or some point he was trying to make?
