I know, just finished watching it. What the hell is that guy? I hate gamers like him! He had huge boobs though so maybe that's why he seems so pissed 

It seems like he complained every chance he got.


I know, if he thinks its that bad why did he buy it?!

That's what I was saying throughout that video.



THE WII MINI LACKS THE OPTION OF COMPONENT OUTPUT AND PROGRESSIVE VIDEO!!!!!????


I still can't believe that to this day..............



Was in Best Buy yesterday. They only had two Wii Mini's left. So limited edition Canada only. Definitely a great buy for collectors - They will probably sell for a mint in a few years time. Fine if all you do is Just Dance I suppose. Lousy for anyone else - too gimped.

Sold one to a fellow VGCharter (in Europe) kinda wish I'd bought one myself for resell in a few years.

They are still available at FS and BB. Saw around stack of 9 last night.

Yep, it's a Canadian thing. It's the only version of Wii being sold here.

It was when it launched, but now Future Shop is also selling the NSMBW bundle again (that has online).  For the difference in price the Wii Mini is an idiots buy.  If you're a collector of rare consoles it is attractive though.


Well, all stores near me that I've checked (Future Shop, Wal-Mart, EBGames etc.) are all selling just the mini version and Future Shop's website is only listing the mini right now.

Holy crap, they stopped selling non-mini Wiis in Canada???  I had no idea!  I'm glad I picked up a GameCube-compatible Wii w/ Motion Plus about a year ago.  For some reason EB was selling the Sports Resort bundle for just $99: same as Wii Mini and way more functionality.

Yeah, I know.  It's a debate of short term loss ($99/Wii I'll never even open/argument with wife over such) Vs long term gain.   I probably should buy a bunch and off-load at a US game convention in 10 years when Wii nostalgia is high.



 

I would have thought this sort of thing would go down well somewhere like Japan.

In my opinion the N64 was not just the best console of the 5th gen but, to this day the best console ever created!

Canada only so nope. I thought it would be a solid purchase for me though.
