Except people who expect to see an HD picture, you know, instead of just rubbing dirt in their eyes.

I think your mistaken the Wii for the Xbox 360. As 90% of the Xbox 360 titles are dirt colored.

Touche, but still, the fact that the Wii doesn't support HD is appalling.

To each his own. I don't need HD for my gaming needs.

 

[Olikunmissile]

Woop? Seriously. What's the point? Who would actually pay money for this?

 

[Aura Guardian]

...Why? What is the point of a fireplace on a computer-game? Why not just end up simulating flipping a coin as well when you need a coin flipped to make a decision?

Yeah, they've already done that as an App for the Pokétch on the last Pokémon games. It was totally pointless and it makes me wonder what kinds of objects random Nintendo developers have lodged in their brains this time.
I love you, Nintendo, but please start bringing out games for this console generation, not completely pointless screensavers.

Actually...The flip coin app was for Shiny Pokemon hatching using the RNG trick. You follow the steps, flip the coin X amount of times., run with the egg and you've hatched a shiny pokemon.

It's been the industry standard for years, we both now it would look much better in HD

Sure it will...but I don't need my game to be in HD just so I play it.

Huh. A year-round Yule Log. I guess having it on the iPhone would cause a bit of cognitive dissonance, fireplaces not being known for their portability and all.

Nor does anybody, but it's an expected feature, and hurts it when you compare it to other consoles that do have HD.

So they are basically turning the Wii into the equivalant of a digital picture frame? Maybe they are getting the point that the Wii isn't doing too well on the game front. So why not turn it into a decoration? Before they throw their Wii's into a real fireplace.

 

[Kellerb]

An awesome example of just how hardcore the wii is. ahem.

Check it out guys: I have an actual wood fireplace beside my TV! So I can play Wii and have a real fire, providing real heat. At the same time.

I have a fireplace too!
Except I can't play the Wii next to the fireplace because I can't be bothered to purchase a toatser and LED for £180 buy a Wii.

OT: I'm sure families will enjoy this, but everyone else will probably be monumentally confused and uninterested.
Also, I thought that the main appeal of a fireplace is that it provides warmth when it gets really cold in early January, and your heating is bust?

My mind is blown. Why did I not know this?
You sir, win an internet /high five.

 

[Billion Backs]

Ohh this is so exciting.

Have you guys heard about all the possible endings?

They are sweeeeeet!

You can have the whole house set on fire, have accidental blockage of the pipe and die asphyxiation, fry Santa Claus, and a whole lot more based on the intricate moral system this game provides.

I give it 5 out of 5, people, this is the new MW2 in terms of success and Portal in terms of innovation and fun!

I'd totally buy it.
