My heart actually sank for a minute for this guy!

The good folks over at PopSci posted an article about the insides of a Wii console.  Check it out, it’s great!

Okay - I am not going to say muchy of anything about the link below, except for that you need to click on it, and watch the short video in its entirety.  Don’t take your eyes off of the screen!

Photoshop Disasters posted an article about the cover of FIFA ‘08 by Electronic Arts - you know, the soccer title. What is with that guys arm? Is it made of ribbon?

(Obviously we know it’s a graphic, but come on. Did no one catch this?)

It’s supposed to be a pretty awesome game though, regardless of what the EA Art Department is outputting! Check out the FIFA ‘08 Official Site for some sweet images and info. If you don’t have this game yet, Amazon has it in stock.

Apparently Playboy is trying to outdo the original Wii Fit Girl with their model, Jo Garcia, doing her gyrating and hoola-hooping to Wii Fit games.  Quite frankly, I feel that the original Wii Fit girl had better hip moves.  From the article:

When Wii Fit Girl did her 3 million hits thang, somehow I knew this was coming down the pike. Because Playboy is the home of Jo Garcia, the Cyber Girl of the Year for 2008 and an enthusiastic and knowledgeable gamer herself. And not only does she have noooo problem wearing much less than naughty librarian glasses and panties, Playboy also has muuuuuch better video equipment and editing.

You have to read some of the comments in the Kotaku article - my favorite:
failed. original wii fit girl was hypnotizing.

I guess this goes to show that a lot of industries can get in on the Wii Cash Machine - accessories makers, game makers, and now, porn makers.  Hmmph.  Have you got YOUR Wii Fit yet?
Happy Monday!

A man named Dylan Romero has beat 127 other competitors in a Wii-mbeldon style Wii Tennis competition in Eugene, OR.  Who even knew that these things existed?  I know that my co-editor has a freaking wicked Wii Tennis backhand shot!

What’s your favorite Wii Sports game?  Post in the comments!

I gotta throw this out there…

Is anyone else getting their tushies handed to them in the 150CC class of Mario Kart?  I swear it’s all I can do to place 4th in the Special and Leaf Cups.  GAAAA!

Anyone?  Is everyone doing better in the 150CC class than I am right now?  Discuss in the comments!

We know the feeling.

The good folks over at I Can Has Cheezburger just posted this Wii-themed LOLcat!

The fun team at Paul Pape Designs has the perfect gift for your Wii gaming sweetie (sWIItie?). Give your Wii Sports tennis partner a lovely gift of Chocolate Miis for Valentine’s Day. A pair of Miis (in any combination of genders you choose) is $14.95. Hopefully, soon after receiving these, the Wii Fit will become available.

From The People, UK:

Make Way for the Q Wii N!
“The gadget-loving Queen has become HOOKED on Prince William’s new Nintendo Wii games console.  William’s girlfriend Kate Middleton bought him the £200 gift for Christmas - but he now has to share it with his grandma.

A Palace source told The People: “When she saw William playing a game after lunch at Sandringham she thought the Nintendo looked tremendous fun and begged to join in. “She played a simple ten-pin bowling game and by all accounts was a natural. “It was hilarious. William was in fits of laughter. He was enormously impressed at having such a cool gran.”
