"Calling everyone fat and lowering their self-esteem", this is quite an exaggeration. I got Wii Fit on Wed and I am overweight. However, I do not feel that this title and system from Nintendo is impacting my self esteem negatively. And there are gamers who are being measured with healthy and under weight BMI scores.

My wife and I have found the system to be a lot of fun. The Balance and Aerobic games are quite a treat! Besides, if you are over weight, don’t you expect an experience titled "Wii Fit" to be somewhat honest about that fact when measuring where you’re at and tracking your progress as you shape up?

That's funny, I dont feel "owned". Of course, Im not the guy on YouTube that has been branded an "Ignorant Asshole" (and I'm quoting WiiNintendoDOTnet here): http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pFHErktuIQk

OMG, I so disagree with you rick. NintendoWiiFanboy.com is a valid blog. There is a functioning community on here that enlightens and supports each other, the main topic and context just happens to be about gaming on the Nintendo Wii.

Please research the term Blog and you will better understand that a Blog web site is simply a web log about ANY topic. And have a nice day buddy! :)

OK, I may have to actually have this built. It's so multi-funtional... it's way sick! Hmm, my neighbor works with wood and builds a lot of furniture...

Hey guys, Steven here. Why not let Glenn Beck know how we really feel about this on HIS website poll.

"Are people who 'blog' about video games losers?" I dare you to let Glenn know what you think: http://www.glennbeck.com/content/articles/article/198/9760/

Hmm, good point Ballangard. I say we let him hear our voices starting on his site. Please cast your vote on one of his polls if you wish to be heard: http://www.glennbeck.com/content/articles/article/198/9760/

This is Steven (Simul8) from this morning’s episode with Glenn Beck. Just click on my name to see my other post that I made right after I got off the phone with Glenn (so that other post by "Stephen" was NOT me).

Thanks for the support guys; I appreciate the positive comments and feedback. Also, I do encourage those of you who were suggesting that a little email flaming on Beck might be in order.

In fact, I say Flame On!!!... After all, this guys is really asking for it.

Just for the record, I'm Steven (Simul8). To verify, just see my post that I made right after i got off the phone with Glenn Beck: http://nintendo.joystiq.com/2008/05/07/glenn-beck-doesnt-like-game-bloggers-too-much/#comments


And I sent the guys at NintendoWiiFanboy the link to the audio file of the segment (so, the "Stephen" post from above is NOT me).

OK, also thanks a lot for the positive feedback and support buffalo_aaa and Pixelantes Anonymous. Looking back on the segment this morning now, it was fun to be able to go off on Glenn Beck like that!

Also, I do hope that some of you email flame him. Afterall, this guy is really asking for it!

Well, after watching Glenn' "Rated M for Money" segment this morning, I was very upset with Mr. Beck's comments. So, I decided to stick up for Video Game Bloggers and chime into Glenn's radio show and I made it onto the air!

Check it out: from this morning's Glenn Beck radio show @ 6:51 into the show.

I basically walked Glenn into admitting that GTA IV was a news worthy topic and then challenged him to explain how if a person blogs about this news worthy topic... they are automatically labeled a Loser?!?

I will try to post a link to an mp3 of me (Steven) challenging Glenn on his show later. By the way, I did identify my favorite game blog as NintendoWiiFanboy.com during this segment of his show!

LOL ;)~

OMG this new Nintendo channel is so freaking kool! Im not kidding... did you guys see the DS Download station is on here and working too? That's right, I just downloaded Cooking Mama to my DS from my Wii in my living room. AMAZING!

Oh, the interview and game videos are kool too. But the DS Download station takes the cake! With Wii Fit being promoted heavily on this channel, I predidct that Wii Fit will be selling out on launch date. Laters... off to go figure out where to pre-pay for one.
