NINTENDO/LYCRA/SHOES OFF IN PUBLIC
Here are some photos of whatever Nintendo’s latest revision of whatever that plastic standy-on thing’s called. Sorry we can’t be any more accurate than that, we really have not been paying attention to anything about games at least the last 18 months.
Don’t know what terrifies us more – having to do exercise, being near women in sports clothes, or being made to take our shoes off in a public place.

But…the character on the first screen has their right foot on the step, whereas the woman ‘playing’ has her left on it. And the wii thinks that’s ‘Great!’ ? Tch.
Why’s everyone lurking round the edges of the room btw? Are they bouncers, there to stop any fatties making a bolt for the exit if a hotdog cart or burger van goes past outside?

I had hoped Nintendo would start phasing out their emphasis on this side of the market and get back to games.
But so long as there are people retarded enough to need their TV to tell them how to do exercising, rather than going for a fucking walk, I doubt Nintendo (for it is one mind) can resist pedalling their pointless shit to them.
I want a Wii too, for SMG2. But I don’t want to then realise it is the only thing on it I’m ever going to buy.
