Let's not forget it was one nutcase that decided that he wanted to take down the twin towers, and look what happened there. One nutcase ended up becoming an entire network of nutcases that eventually got the job done over a period of a decade or so!

Not in it's entirety! A car will not mow your lawn for you but a horse will :P

You mean like in the case of having an accident, the car is totaled, it is no longer worth what you owe, but you still have to pay the remainder of the payments?

I hope my sarcasm radar is just off today and you are not serious. :P

...then you can put whatever OS you want on it and you don't have to worry about pre-installed crap!!!!!

if you want to know more about how the government is screwing you!

now I have to look at angry birds on the TV as if it wasn't enough everywhere else! :OP

Under the same premise a car manufacturer should be liable for assisting in a bank robbery because the thieves couldn't have gotten away so quickly without their ingenious device called the automobile! This is just stupid and the judge that made that poor decision should be shot, hanged, and burnt at the stake!

a special place in my heart for Super Mario World so why wouldn't there be a special place for new SNES games if they come out?

That was kind of my point! If we were to launch one today it would break before even getting to Jupiter, and most of it's components would be made in some foreign sweat shop instead of in the US. Which is why I said oh how far we have fallen!

...and we are still standing on the shoulders of our past Geniuses. Oh how far we have fallen.

I said sharks with lasers attached to their foreheads not dolphins with knives or guns YOU IDIOT!!!

...a huge thanks to Time Warner for blowing up JJ's Restaurant on the Plaza in down town Kansas City, KS. Fuck you ass holes! Next time make sure you don't pick shyster, low dollar contractors, with no digging permits that don't know what they are doing!

The reason it was dead on arrival is that they changed too much that was cool and original about the first Wii and the only feature that is semi-cool about the new one isn't that big of a deal. Let's compare

Wii

1. 1. Completely original, ground breaking, motion sensitive controller system that changed game consoles as we know them (Even made Microsoft copy it to an extent)
2. 2. Fun casual games that sucked the player in because they were almost like doing the real activities but in your house (i.e. Bowling, Tennis, Frisbee, etc). These games were the reason that my 63 y/o parents own a Wii, because they could bowl again without having to pick up a heavy bowling ball, play tennis again without overexerting their selves, so on and so forth
3. 3. Classic Nintendo games that everyone loves plus backwards compatible with Game Cube games and accessories = awesome!

Wii U

1. 1.Take most of the Wii list away and add a sucky new controller that is supposed to be innovative but is just kind of what it would have been like if Sony used the PSP to control the Play Station = Dead Console

So, by changing the recipe without any real new innovation they alienated a lot of the Wii fans. I don't see any added value to the Wii U so I will stick with my Wii. I have my computer if I want 1080p quality games. What I want my Wii for is fun games where 1080p doesn't make a difference besides is Mario really supposed to be in high def I mean come on people!
