The Wii is definitely a niche machine. Not sure why anyone technical enough to want to stream movies wouldn't also want it in 1080p. Not a huge selling point for the Wii IMO.

That being said, the Wii is definitely a fun thing to have at parties because the women like it as much as the men, and it's a social activity. It's not a gamer machine like the PS3 or the 360.

Exactly, the Wii is a social video game, and by social I mean actually interacting with REAL people. NOT talking poo on a headset to some geek in china.

That's why all the console fanboys hate the Wii, they fear what they don't understand.

Streaming Netflix is not a good value IMO. I had it for months and the best movie we ever found was an old Matthau/Lemon flick. ugh

The Wii and it's unending barrage of mini-game shovelware has hurt the Wii. When the majority of your consumer base couldn't tell you the difference between Kratos or Master Chief (or aren't allowed to play their games) you get levels of shovelware that rival the days of the Atari 2600.

The only thing I fear about the Wii is that the other console manufactures are designing their own motion controllers. This could open them up to the same shovelware proliferation the Wii experience provides.

Yes I own a Wii, and it barely gets used. This thing just feels like the modern day power glove.

      Dave Tepper gives Canales and Dan Morgan vote of confidence

      By mav1234 · Posted

      There's some big assumptions in here - first, I think Canales HAS helped Bryce a poo ton. To pretend he hasn't is asinine. Has he fixed him?  I mean, the dude looks like he could perhaps be a backup or low-end starter now, whereas he looked like he didn't belong in the NFL a year ago. You're talking about a coach that brought one of the worst NFL QBs of all time to a point where he may actually be a low-end starter. That IS impressive. Second, the bolded. Come on - given the offense, the dude is far from "trending towards bust." He definitely needs work but he's shown an impressive ability to get open. He's contributing to an anemic offense. The dude is our leading receiver (though he'll be #2 in yardage by end of season by a little, as Thielen does better per game).  As to his coaching, he had this team competing and believing against 3 of the better teams in the NFL, despite the lack of talent, and despite our QB situation.  Yes, things fell apart vs DAL, and he was outcoached. But that will happen with young coaches IMO.  I don't think it indicates he cant' be better. The idea of "pulling off the bandage" is ridiculous. Who would want to coach here if we fired this guy after one season?

      Has this game changed feelings about Young?

      Whatever they are in totality the cowboys are beat up all to hell on both sides of the ball and even that was too much for lil Bryce to overcome.  Bryce defenders have to hype up every other team and trash every other part of the panthers just because of the situation they’ve put themselves in.

      BREAKING: Panthers Announce Four Moves Including LB Trevin Wallace To IR

      By SCO96 · Posted

      JB had a first round grade in the eyes of a lot scouts based on HIS TALENT LEVEL. If not for the injury he would have gone higher in the draft, possibly between the middle and the end of round 1. To get him just before the 50th pick is a steal. He'd be on a 4 year deal. You can't even renegotiate until the end of the season 3. You're basically paying him nothing for 3 seasons. I don't buy into all back are interchangeable. No they're not. You have average backs, good backs, then your great-exceptional backs. The latter category doesn't grow on trees. If a back is special it pays to keep them. The key is knowing the difference between the first two categories and the third one.
