Need further persuasion that the Wii is just downright bad? When the president of Sega of America starts talking shit, you know you’ve got trouble on your hands: “There is a lot of crap coming out for the Wii in general. But if it’s not a good game, it doesn’t sell.” “The Wii is a great opportunity for hitting hardcore ...

Yup.

Remember the Wii MotionPlus, the gimmicky accessory that attaches to the end of the Wiimote to �more quickly and accurately reflect motions in a 3-D space?” It turns out Nintendo is getting some bad recognition regarding their lack of disclosure involving the accessory and third-party developers. When third-party developers were asked of their opinions of the accessory, they all seemed ...

With this new Wiimote accessory, I can’t help but be reminded of the N64 expansion slot, an accessory that should’ve been included with the system on day one. The Wii MotionPlus is physical proof that even Nintendo itself feels that its “revolutionary” motion capture control is faulty. It attaches to the end of the Wiimote to “more quickly and accurately ...

Remember that ridiculously stupid beer pong video Vince posted regarding the Nintendo Wii? Just when you thought your Wii might have a practical use, in comes the Connecticut Attorney General Richard Blumenthal to stereotype Wii users as minors.

Yet another video game-based baked goody to fulfill our sweet tooth. This time around, Mario Kart is the inspiration for this succulent cake posted by Flickr user M.A.L.

Using eight Nintendo Wii controllers, that previously were doing nothing more than collecting dust, Tom is able to create and manipulate sound in real time. This ...

No one wants to stand during a raid. Yet, these German fellows who turned the Wii Balance Board into an interactive control mechanic for World Of Warcraft do want to stand as they play. They’ve done a similar project with Google Maps but this software mod sets the all time precedent of uselessness. Relaying data to a laptop via Bluetooth, ...

When we did 10 Alternatives to the Wii Fit, we originally filmed 20+ clips. We were going to do 20 Alternatives to the Wii Fit but it ended up being a long video. Above, the clips that were never shown…until today. God help you. Link

Reggie Fils-Aime is a liar. He wants you to believe that the Wii Fit will make you skinny but the truth is: It won’t. To top it off, he’s one weird looking mother fucker. Wii Fit is said to be influenced by activities in Miyamoto’s daily life. A Japanese man obsessed with clothes hanger puppets does not bench press or ...
