I don’t understand when people say their Wii just gathers dust in the corner. I use my Wii everyday. I always am fumbling for the Wiimote after setting it down in some foreign corner. “Now why is this in the laundry basket?” After the search party celebrates, I adjust my Wii Senor Bar and turn the console on. Familiar musical tones drawl through the room as I click away at the menu. Did you see that Instant Netflix just added the Invisible Man? Claude Raines, classic. I got about half way through it before I had to leave for work, but guess what!? I could continue to watch it on my 3DS! Radical! At least there’s something to do on that system in addition to unwrapping all those gifts. I can’t wait to watch some 3D trailers and take 3D pictures that I can share with my friends (is that possible?). I just leave my Spot Pass on because it has to be that way and its fun. Street Passing is cool too! I learned that this guy, Jared, his favorite game is the eShop. I didn’t realize there was anything there even! You learn something every day. Let me check it out right now for some cool apps. I think I’ll get Mario Clock and Animal Crossing Calculator so I can do easy math and know the time wherever I go, all in one handy device. At only $1.99 apiece, even Nook cannot deny that deal! Now, the real question is do I get My Notebook: Red or My Notebook: Green? Also, does anybody know how to print off my Ambassador certificate? I really want to show my parents but I ran out of paper for my Gameboy Printer.



When was the last time I played a game on either of those bad boys? Oh yeah, Super Mario RPG! I also just downloaded Mario Party 2 because hootenannies on the Western board are the greatest thing since sliced bread. I haven’t played it yet because I have yet to find where to plug a Gamecube controller in the system. But who needs games? Films, photos, weather, and global polls are a much better focus for a games console. And no, I do not wear cologne or perfume, but thanks for asking Nintendo. Are you looking for gift ideas? My birthday is just around the corner (January 24th). You don’t have to get me anything, but if you really want to, I heard about this game that sounds really cool called The Last Story. But that’s just a game, and I want you guys to focus on the important stuff, like what I’m going to have to plug into my system next to maybe think about playing a game. (Will the frakennub have Pokedex support?)

*yeah, I use my Wii for Netflix, but thats only because I don’t have a PS3 or Xbox 360 or a HD tv.

Actually, I use my Wii for Netflix too. Strangely, even with my 360 biting the dust, I don't really use it for games lately. And that's the kicker...I have games on it I LIKE. A lot of gamers say the Wii has no games. No, it does, and they're good, but a lot of us use it as a default system for Netflix because it's better on there...well, unless you have HD, which I don't, so nyah!
LOL! Nicely done!
Great read here! Once I get my Wii I'm probably not even going to use Netflix much! I just don't watch that many movies.
Your Wii has a señor bar? Is it from Mexico?
Pfft only nerds play games.
@Darren
It's from Wiiaxa.
The Everybody Votes channel alone is worth buying a Wii for. I learn something new everyday.

I mean, did you know that 62% of people in the UK dislike porridge, or that only 82% of the population have used a vending machine?

CRAZY!!
How could so few people use a vending machine? That state has got to be 95% in the USA and 100% in Japan. You can buy beer and soup from a vending machine in Japan. BEER and SOUP! The two best things ever!
They do have those waist-high cigarette vending machines in Europe that are perfect for kids.
Meh.

Fapped.
