autoacat discovered 18 months ago- From the page: "4. Wii Straps Recalled We've been throwing game controllers since about two seconds after we first got our hands on one, but for some reason slippery idiots flinging Wiimotes through their plasma screens became one of the big stories of the holiday season. To hear mainstream news reports, delivered with the kind of gravity that should be reserved for an Ebola outbreak, Wii controllers are part of an insidious oriental plot to murder your children with toys. One Fox outlet even included some images from our Wiinjuries feature, noting that they were "apparently" a parody. If these guys pass for journalists then I hereby abdicate any claim to the title. "Guy who plays videogames and writes about them" carries a lot more respectability at this point."

- I say Jack Thompson is in this somehow... but it's a weird article filled with some seriously Anti-gaming crap. Still a good read, though.

- From the page: "Professional weight loser Jered Fogel offered an explanation for his previous fat bastardry, claiming that the true cause wasn't just that he ate too much junk food, but that he ate too much junk food while he was playing too much Nintendo. "I usually had one hand on the controller and one in a bag of chips." His parents ineffectually tried to halt his swelling, not by wresting the chips from his pudgy little fingers, but by restricting his videogame time. Fortunately for his future career as a former fat guy, it didn't work."

- From the page: "No, you didn't miss the release of the original, persistently nonexistent Duke Nukem Forever, though that was the first thing that went through my head, too. Duke Nukem Forever, in case you were born sometime after it was first announced (it's totally possible that such individuals are old enough to be reading this now,) was the victim of a convoluted series of events that eventually culminated in Wired News creating the "Vaporware Lifetime Achievement Award" for it just so the game would stop topping its vaporware awards list every damn year. 3D Realms CEO Scott Miller nevertheless announced that they plan on a making sequel, no doubt to arrive at some point immediately preceding the heat death of the universe."

- From the page: "1. Nintendo... Wii? It was one of those defining moments in history. The kind of thing you'll always remember, like where you were when the Challenger blew up, on 9/11, or when Kennedy was shot. Where were you when you first heard the "Revolution" was going to be called "Wii?" EIC Sam Kennedy was flying back from a press event and couldn't be convinced that we weren't pulling some kind of joke on him that morning when we called with the news. Hell, we half suspected that Nintendo themselves were making a gag at our expense. Right up to their E3 press conference we fully expected Miyamoto to come down a slide screaming "Wheeeeeeeee!" before Reggie would run across the stage making pistol fingers at the audience while shouting "You got punked!" Even now we still can't help but feel that Nintendo is secretly laughing at us every time we say it. And somehow, that's better than the alternative: that until someone makes a bit of software that'll check product names in the language of every country they'll be exported to, we'll just have to go on living in a world where the Japanese keep naming their computers with cute words we've made up for our dicks."

- From the page: "Have you seen this netterweb thing? There's porn on there! Violence! Hate! Sexual predators! Sweet hemorrhaging Christ, won't someone think of the children?"
