Nintendo Wii Launches In Japan

by

All I can say about this video is a simple word which speaks volumes….wow. Yesterday the Nintendo Wii launced in Japan and it received a huge welcome. As you can see from the video, this particular line stretches out to an insane distance. According to Nintendo, Japan received a total of 400,000 Wii consoles for sale…and every store that carried them has sold out already. Incredible.

This is how Nintendo’s launch should have been in the states instead of it being for the PS3. Majority of the PS3s that were bought were just sold on eBay. You can tell that each and every person in this huge line of Japanese people want to own and play the Wii.

    my god dude. this is amazing. thanks for being there to report what the rest of the world already knew.

    your opinion is really important to me. that’s why i visit. it’s the bb perspective that keeps me coming back. that pearl of wisdom, bit of genius, and downright passion that you exude in your writing.

    also, i love that your comments don’t have line breaks. that’s fucking awesome. it makes them almost as unreadable as your posts (albeit for different reasons).

    Your amazing fb. Today is a big day in Japan, what would you want me to do, not report it? And then if I didn’t report it, you probably would have complained that I didn’t report it. You see how your just now trying to make things up just to get at me? Trust me, nothing you say bothers me one bit.

    And as for the comments, I will talk to the people who help build my blog about that, maybe something can be done about it. You could ask a little nicer next time man.

    hey FB it’s great to meet a jackass such as yourself posting comments about this article. are you sad that your father stuck the wiimote up your ass and now you can’t use it to play bowling? my advice is wash it off with sea water.

    thanks for the article, BB.
