...

You amuse me. That's good, too, because after the large amount of horror in this book I'm reading just happened I needed amusement.

But, with that said, your logic fails. Even if Willy Wonka--who does not exist in this reality as anything more than a fictional character--were to perfect a minature chocolate manufacturing plant, why would the Wii have one installed? It would not aid the Wii's purpose at all. If anything, such a device would be much more suited to the PS3, which tries to cater itself as a home entertainment system rather than just a video game console, and thus a snack producing mechanism would be the perfect finish.
rofl, you win for not knowing a joke when you see one (i know you did, but you acted like it was a serous statement)

Oh, he realizes it's funny, as proven by him saying 'You amuse me'. But he acts like every thing's serious because... well, it's just what he does. Oh, bugger. That was a PERFECT opportunity to reference the Abridged series but I, fool as I am did not use it.

Exactly. I used to do it all the time and truly mean everything seriously...I was quite literal minded. Nowadays I am not, so much, but I kept the habit because it amuses me and it's often useful as a form of satire.

Well, if you didn't think Sony was the most ignorant, bullheaded gaming / media company out there before...

Interesting news. I doubt it will hold long, but interesting nonetheless.

Someone linked them at the Digg post I read. Nintendo was worth $52 billion and Sony $57.2, and Nintendo edged them out to $57.9.

5.9 billion dollars just from the Wii and the DS?

Chrono Trigger would probably make the jump to VC. For God's sake, if they brought back Actraiser, then Crono & Co must be getting prepped for re-re-release. (Remember PS1, long load times)

As for me, I have my Mario 64 and Twilight Princess on Wii, so I'll be good till Chrono Trigger.

We all do. I wouldn't be surprised if it comes out around the time of Metroid Prime 3, so as to have the two boost interest in each other.
