I though they actually killed USM when they brought David Lafuente as the artist.

I've heard about these...the R. Kelly model is powered by urine.

Agreed, I was thinking of the episode where all robots went nuts and Leela's wrist computer went sentient and told her to wash her wrist more often.

TOASTY!

Good ol' Fashioned chainsaw...although I'm looking forward to the duels!

I don't even need to read that article to know that the author's logic is irreversibly effed. If anything, all these add-ons an make gaming generally more fun than anything, in the same philosophical vein as the wii it makes gaming more accessible so that anyone could just pick it up and easily get into it. When I say anyone, I also mean the other 49-51% of the population who make up the vast majority of casual gamers. When you (also girls) pick up guitar hero or shake it on the ddr pad it's easy to get into and lots of fun, girl or guy, gamer or non-gamer.

ps. Reuters can try to talk to my girlfriend all they want, but she could play more Final Fantasy than a crackhead.

I would have to name it the iwii, because I wii'd myself when I saw that, much like the first poster...

I think they're obviously going to go with individual login's, much like a pc login or "gamertag". It seems that Nintendo's Wii is all about individualizaton and sharing.If Nintendo plans on people playing games and sharing the wii with their 'rents and grand'rents as illustrated in Ninty's ads so far, they're not gonna have everyone reading eachother's messages,e-mails and etc. on the WiiChannels. I think the idea of a friend code per player is a much better idea, juggling around those codes between games gets tedious and time consuming with all the Wifi DS games I play with my friends. It's much less of a pain adding a friend code once, you add a code to your "friend list" and you have that person and see what games they have that you can play together.

I didn't truly mean that I thought Nintendo was being ripped off, it was joke...you know...joke? humor? quioticism? whimsy? guffaws? silliness? jokes!

anyways, no one here is being ripped off technically, the skit that inspired the commercial wasn't even the first appearance of a skit like this, so the peeps at Gordon College aren't being ripped off...even if they were the original, they wouldn't be ripped of considering all intellectual property that was displayed in the skit would belong to Nintendo...now since this is nothing more than a skit at a school talent show, they're obviously not making any money off it.

Jim Henson who made the Muppets and Sesame Street always used it a bunch...there was a scene in Labyrinth where they used that technique.

but if anyone's being ripped off here, I believe we can agree that it's Nintendo...hah!
