Under the Wii flap... - Jul 02, 2006 00:27
Not really news, not really interesting, but hey, it' ll stop wild conspiracy theories (even mine) about their being something secret under the front flap of Nintendo' s next-gen console...

It contains a single flash card slot and a button labelled ' sync' which i can only presume is for the controller and sensor bar...

It has a button labelled ' sync' !!!!!!!!

Actually, i still buy the possibility of Sony' s suprise controller announcement forcing Nintendo to cancel the unveilling of one of the consoles functions/technologies.

32gb of ram,
1gb video ram gpu

What about Microsoft? what would they say?

I think it would go something like this.


--MICROSOFT OFFICES--

" Damn, those Nintendo Guys"
- " Wait, ..who?"
" Oh yea, they had this console called the ' game.. rube' ? is that right?, anyway, it wasnt any competetion and really easily forgetable'
-" Right"
" They own Mario"
- " Really? I thought we bought that Ip?"
" Nah, we tryied, but some of those Nintendo Fanboys attempted to commit mass susicde if they sold"
- " what Happened?"
" We reconsidered"
- " Ha, Ha .... If only they knew the truth"
" Yea, ha ha"
-" so whats this about Rinrendo?"
" yeah, their new system, Wii, Ha ha, Is like Uber Fantatsic"
- " Really?"
" Yeah, It prints money and everything"
- " Damn, thats innovation"
" It beats the 360 hands down in terms of sheer RAW processing power"
- " really? what about PS3"
" No way, Nothing of Sony' s Playsatation can be wronged"
- " Yes, The Playsatation is bliss"
" This reminds me, Lets play some Playstation right now"
-" just what I was going to say!"
" I bet our Real Bosses up at Sony would be proud"
- " Sony made me what I am today"
" I love Sony so much, I founded a new Religion,..its called Sonyism"


Or something along those lines...

It' s not an ad. Ads are payed for. My thing is just a recommendation.
I really recommend you to buy the Wii at launch. Why? Well because

That' s interesting, but I wonder why they would put the " syncronize" button under the flap and leave the other buttons out in the open. Thoughts?

I think they should hurry up and announce these *new technologies* before everyone gives up waiting on them. I mean seriously, how long can they draw it out? Surely sony don' t have enough time to steal anything now?!

Actually, they don' t but I' m sure they would at least in part consider that:

if Nintendo announced that Wii was to have say, " quasi-tronic-nano-technology" inside it' s controller, I' m sure that sony' s controller would gain extra hype but no extra features at all, so why don' t they just release the info on the last secrets goddammit!

I' m starting to think these will be earth-shattering details.... and if they' re are not... I suppose I' ll be happy with it anyway!

The Wii is so great as it is, so for me they might as well cancel that last technology.
Save it for the WiiToo.

Or it could be called the MiiToo, Wii, was all about everyone playing together
as one community.. The MiiToo is strictly focused on the single player aspect.

And gives you the best EPISODIC (love it) content ever.
There are two rules to success:

1. Never tell all you know.

No, no' it' ll be WiiToo. The ones saying " we too" are the 360 and PS3 owners who have realised that Nintendo is superior.
Why? Well because

if playing = believing

then surely the only console we can play at the moment is billbox360 as it' s the only console which white, green with a hint of yellow / green?

man, what crap I' m spouting these days. I blame the fanboys everywhere for my condition.



playing = doesn' t seem to matter these days
it' s hype that counts - so the company that spins... wins!

hahaha!

A truly Majik style take on proceedings!


I know it sounds stupid, but I really, really, truly miss the buzz that SEGA hardware used to give me. I know the nintendo is the nearest thing, but i miss them!!

fantasises about a rise from the ashes... sniff, it' s never been the same since Saturn / DC. Most ppl I know struggle to remember what a DC was allready!

I hope the Wii is the most successful console they have ever produced! I often wonder what would happen if they produced a special " SEGA " branded unit?! I' d buy one!!

At the same time im kind of glad SEGA doesnt make consoles anymore.
I would rather see them as game developers!! :P
Even if you break 2 legs from a crab it still runs!
What you gotta do is find its weak spot and do massive damage at it.

All I ask from sega right now is a good sonic game... that' s it. (I was gonna say VF5, but I think i' ll let the excitement build) I' ll never forgive them for Shadow the Hedgehog, or for that matter, Sonic Riders. It' s like seeing " Metal Gear Solid: Battle Racing" or " Crash Bandicoot: Cortex' s Big Adventure" . Hopefully the new Sonic the Hedgehog game will go back to it' s roots


if Nintendo announced that Wii was to have say, " quasi-tronic-nano-technology" inside it' s controller, I' m sure that sony' s controller would gain extra hype but no extra features at all


Maybe, i' ve got bets that Nintendo' s new controller is going to be filled with space-age polymers. They do everything, don' tcha know. Sony' s gonna steal them and then get stuck with a lawsuit, after Kenny K claims that everyone else is stealing from Sony.
