You're right, I don't really care what you say; I am however interested in why you say it.  Why do you dislike the Wii so much?

Quote from: "Frogman4"
their gameboys totally got blown away by sony's PSP.


How so?  I'm fairly sure the DS has been out selling the PSP by quite a bit.

In Japan, people still line up on Friday night to buy a Nintendo DS Lite. Enough said.

Coming from someone had a PSP before anybody you know personally.

Well me personally, it's pretty dorky, the controller is goofy, and while some or maybe most people like new and different designs so they feel all high-tech, I'm not sure it's necessary.  At least yet.  About the gameboys, I meant more in terms of the quality of it, the PSP has really good graphics, you can watch some movies on it, listen to music, it has a "joystick" if you can call it that which I really like more than an arrow pad, and regarding how many are sold, it could just be the price difference, if I remember right, the PSP costs a fair amount more than the DS?   And of course, only you Gantaliano Hoff, would bring up the stocks, :D  but I like it, it's proof.

I'm in the process of taking the Wiimote and setting it up as a game controller for a Linux game box.

Arcade machine running Linux would have prolly made a more apt description.

Its basically a standard PC running FCEU's NES emulator on Gentoo with a coin acceptor and leprechaun stickers... with a bluetooth driver that will be able to make the Wiimote into a mouse pointer.  We [DeVry Linux Users Group] are looking at emulating duck hunt for this event:

I got a Wii!

First off I'd like to tell Marney, Thank you!
Second I'm posting with the Wii, which takes forever.
As soon as I figure this all out, I'll post up friend code or whatever it is.us
