One of the *big* things that I realize that I forgot to post about the Wii that I think is awesome: Widescreen support on all first party titles. The Wii won't do any fancy 720p/1080p business, but it will do 480p. That should make it easier to read text and stuff, but I'm more pumped about the widescreen than anything. Down with 4:3!
The new Zelda game looks *A-M-A-Z-I-N-G*. I saw a video demo of the game, and it is righteous.
I'm off to go pick the wife up from work soon, so here are some fun links to get you through:
Links
- I always wanted a classy version of the TV from Pee Wee’s Playhouse (with a slight Scandinavian flare), and now someone’s made it. They also have a TV / toy fire engine combo going on for them... pretty cool if the fire engine is remote controlled and comes with little animatronic fire men, but otherwise not so cool. Funny, yes. Cool, no.
- A One-legged robot that jumps brought to you by Toyota (this is hilarious, right?) Well, guess what... it's even funnier: the entire robot is just ONE LEG.
"Next up in the One-Legged Butt Kicking Competition: Toyota."
I can see the protest groups forming now with placards that read, "Don't let a machine kick your butt!" T-shirts and political parties will follow.
-Pirate ship themed tree house for $20k. This may be an incredibly insane item, but I'd come over and hang out at your place if you had one... especially if you get the optional Fireman's pole - the Ghostbusters couldn't resist the pole, and I can't either. Don't bother with the optional cannon though, something tells me these wussies won't give you a working one, which really begs the questions: how am I going to loot and blunder without a big friggin' gun? Eye patches? Probably not.
