I would not mind too much if they managed to get nintendo to stop importing wiis.

Think about it. the wii is already the most sought after console on the market. People kill for them. So if they were to stop being produced and shipped... think about how much there value would shoot up. Not only would they be one of the most craved things on the market, but now there would be a finite number of them. All I'm saying is; all of a sudden people would pay really good money for them. Not saying i would just sell mine off, but its nice to have your personal belongings all of a sudden jump to a much higher value than they were purchased for.

Obviously, this is just a hypothetical situation, and very unlikely.

so there is my 2 cents

What's the deal with the lack of Super Smash 64 on the wii shop channel. No, instead we get stuff like SnowBoard 180!

It would be nice but I dont think Nintendo is ready for a new console yet. The PS3 uses the six axis controller for motion but they don't use it very much.

ps3 barely uses 6-axis, besides, they are not suing because nintendo uses motion sensors! they are suing because the technology in motion sensors nintendo uses is a special type of motion sensor that they apparently invented, and copyrighted.

there are sooo many things that use motion sensor tecnology... if they could sue just because someone used motion sensors, they would be richer than bill gates.

even if nintendo could not send us wii and wii games, some one will find a way, or nintendo could counter sue or something

why would they wait so long after its been created, processed, and sold before deciding to go 'oh hey they used our shit' they should have said something when it was in production or in talks of creation... *sigh*

one time a guy was called fat in wii fit.

he threatened to sue.

it was hilarious

If I'm not here, I'm probably quietly crying in my room, mourning the loss of the greatest wii podcast ever, along with the death of such a friendly community.
