Lol, ben made a spammy topic.

COME ON!

Noone is dumb enough to sue over this bs. I mean, even if they did, Shiguro miyamoto would be all, "Its yo problem *****. Read the dang disclaimer."

Or, when you turn on the wii, it will be like turning on the ds. lol

Ben has every right to spam if he wants to. After all he pays the tab... :P

Remember, people started suing companies like McDonald's for causing their obesity...

I voted never not because I don't think one will make it to court, but because there's absolutely no grounds and will be laughed out. For one making it to court, I vote by the end of the year. With something like this, Nintendo will have disclaimered the console to death.

And, remember, DDR has the little warning labels all over it, so that's probably why they haven't been sued. Plus, you're way more likely to use a home console more than an arcade machine.

I see "lolnintendorippedmeoff" as a more common theme. So many people could claim this technology as their own, it isn't even funny. Like a man chained down and someone with a gun.

Now that the system is out I figured I'd bring this topic back in. You have one more day to vote on this.

Then let's see how close we all were!

Nintendo has some vicious lawyers, so what does it matter?

Well someone smashed their TV while bowling already, but he isn't suing.

If you're looking at this post and it was made before 2008, just ignore it.

Ya, I was worried about doing that. He can't sue, they warned him to wear the strap. :P

Apparantly, the strap actually broke off, though :|....
Without games my life would have no meaning.
Well, I guess it would, but it would be a lot less fun!!!!!!!

"Owned!" :P

Now see if he had just been using a front projection system like he's supposed to, the most expensive thing he'd have to buy is some drywall compound.

I like my projector, even if it was designed for PowerPoint slides. :P

EDIT: Hey that guy's got the same AA rechargeables as me! (great batteries)

A good reason why I will never play my Wii (When I get it) in front of the plasma screen. I guess I'll be limited to my good old CRT screen for now.

Oh, and I lmaod when I saw the pics in the SA thread.
