Thank you euclid. I went through some of that in another forum I attended last year. It's not good to talk positively about Nintendo it seems. Yes I'm a Nintendo fan. I don't pretend to be otherwise. But I'm just pointing out stories I think may be of interest. Sure EGM may have posted it long ago but Wii will make impact having stories like these in less gaming-centric publications. The middle-aged man working in a pharmacy is not going to read EGM most likely. But he may run across these well-placed Yahoo blurbs while casually browsing the 'net. I have just seen another Yahoo featured story on Wii. Something tells me either Nintendo has put down some ad space or Yahoo contributors are genuinely impressed with Wii. That or their editors anyhow. Either way it makes a lot of impact to people who would never consider otherwise. That was the point I was making by posting the story so you read for yourself.
