I guess it is true about what they say:


"The more you know, the less you understand."

You mean, he doesn't get paid if he doesn't troll. That's a dark way to look at it...

That's the worst apology ever. He's basically saying "I was wrong, I didn't know there were so many stupid people out there!"

Also, I think the expression "real gamer" is even worst than "hardcore gamer", it's so condescending.

I don't understand what makes these idiots so bitter and scared. More gamers, more fun. Relax, buddy, it's all good!

The only problem Nintendo has these years, are where to put their money. No more room in their money tanks.

i doubt he will post it but i had to write a response

"You sir fail at your job.

If you would like the world to view you as a real journalist and not a fan boy then please leave the insults to the drab sites like cnet and the sony defense force.

Surely someone with over 30 years in the video game world is better then this. The wii is not death tot eh industry, it is not the doom and gloom machine you make it out to be. I own one as well as the 360 and have to say this little fact. It is a fun machine that offers an escape. It is a fun system I feel safe letting my friends play with, letting my family play with, and letting my self play with. It is not this loaded gun ready to destroy any “real” gamer that might come in contact with it.

It astounds me that of the great games on the wii you name but a paltry sample that only major media has talked about. It does nothing but prove that you have not done research into the wii and anything it might offer to a “real” gamer such as yourself.

Please do the world a favor and take the time to educate yourself and open your mind to the fact that you don’t need hd graphics and dual analog sticks with a hearty supply of grenades to enjoy a game. Truly with that mentality I would have mistaken you for the twelve year old run into on live."

I stopped reading when I heard the Wii had been out for 18 months in the summer of 2007. Hes got X360 on his mind.

And I thought Bruce was bad....

Agreed. It shows that people who should know better don't. It also may show that since Kent has been focusing on novels lately that maybe he is (a) too caught up in technology (he writes military science ficition) and (b) not up-to-date with current gaming trends.

It also shows that while I sometimes disagree with Chris Kohler at Wired that he does get things better than a lot of people do.

It could have been worse. At least he did not say "I am sorry if I offended anyone ..." or something akin to such a phrase usually found in the apologies of sports figures.

lol, I first read "Wii bubble terrorist"...

Well, he more or less is...
