Anyway, I dunno when is May 19, but it surely is May 19 here in our country. And its birthday of my brother, and if Malstrom was correct, Wii Fit will make a huge impact and will change gaming forever, we will see gaming's perspective differently. YES, core gamers will never accept on what gaming will become when Wii Fit arrives:

I love the sound of shrieking hardcore gamers in the morning,” I told myself as meltdowns rippled through the gamer community after Nintendo’s 2007 E3 Press Conference. With each announcement, another tidal wave came crashing down on the industry. The natives, hardcore gamers, cried in despair as many got swept out to the sea.
This time, last year, one could describe the setting as the calm before the storm. Standing on the industry shores, one could begin seeing the water being sucked into the ocean foretelling the coming Wii tsunami. The hardcore gamers, drunk on PS3 and Xbox 360 hype, danced in the calm sun unaware of the incoming tidal waves.
In “Drowning in the Blue Ocean”, the setting foreshadowed the future at the end of this generation. The Old World would become flooded. The old ways would rot beneath the sea and many in the industry would scream as the water rose above their heads. Despite Classic Gaming, with its graphic intense pillars and sophisticated control schemes embedded on its fantastic walls, falling underwater, an “Undiscovered Continent” (Iwata’s words) awaited. At the end, we would finally see through the misty haze at this fresh New World. What wonders await for us there? This article will describe what the New World is and why, after this generation, nothing will be the same anymore.
But for the present, Wii tidal waves keep slamming into the industry. Drizzling cold rain and a sharp wind have ruined the parties of the hardcore. An uneasy sense has come that they know the future belongs to Nintendo. As soon as the storm pauses, another Wii tidal wave slams taking away more hardcore gamers out to sea. Some are even traditional Nintendo fans who loved the ‘hardcore’ games Nintendo made during the Nintendo 64 and Gamecube eras.
Sighing, I reached over and pulled him up to solid ground. As the gamer spits out the Blue Ocean water, he looks up and says…
Evil Nintendo
