    Perverted businessmen? In my Japan



    *puts on Kabuki-facepaint*



    Hooooh



    THEY...will be punished, with a man's punishment.



    As the cherry blossom fall to the ground to signal the end of spring, so too must the buds of mankind struggle to find solace in strife.



    If only my ancestors could look upon me and smile. Feeling pride over the egg that became a dragon in a skies of yesteryear.



    Then you will have found happiness and the guise of a sunflower.

    As an aside. I think the Koreans should first focus on their presidents before clapping innocent hookers in cuffs.

    @InconspicuouslyConspicuous: It's not working for me, either. I thought it was an Internet Explorer thing, so I switched back to Google Chrome (what I usually use), but it's not working either... also, it refuses to let me edit anymore. No matter when I hit the edit button, it tells me that time has expired.

    Reggie has always come off as a bit smug, in my eyes. Not that it's a bad thing. I do think he has a point on Nintendo's stance regarding tech. Sure Microsoft's technology is jaw-droppingly cool...but will the experiences be as good as the tech? I guess time will tell. We don't even know how well the thing works yet...

    If physical activity is the future, Konami has been in the future for 12 years, and it WORKS. You get REAL exercise from Standard mode songs on endless for half an hour on DDR.

    Then please have a more stringent content policy rather than allow most any ol' thing. WiiWare is awesome, but it also has a lot of garbage.

    the prevailing industry opinion was that prettier pictures or more horsepower were the waves of the future. And now it's clear from both of our competitors that physical activity in gaming is the wave of the future.


    Uh, Xbox360 is gonna have both. Sorry Nintendo, try again.

    @Slagathorian: Why do I need one? If I'm at home, I can talk to people over AIM or just call them on a regular phone sitting right over there. If I'm out, I'm almost always with friends anyway and I don't need to be alerted to something while I'm already doing something. And if I'm at work, I don't need anyone calling me and I don't need to be bothered.


    Cellphones just aren't needed. They're accessories.
