Which is a more romantic Valentine's gift? How about just being there and being alive?... or have we become so materialistic that V-Day requires flowers, chocolate and other things? FYI, yes, I'm a guy and I cringe whenever I hear "A guy's responsibility in life is to make a woman feel happy and wanted." Barf. Oh, a forever single guy at that. Damn I ranted totally off-topic.]]>Feb 14th 2007 12:51PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/02/14/nintendo-surprises-with-everybody-votes-wii-channel/http://www.engadget.com/2007/02/14/nintendo-surprises-with-everybody-votes-wii-channel/Feb 14th 2007 2:33PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/02/14/nintendo-surprises-with-everybody-votes-wii-channel/http://www.engadget.com/2007/02/14/nintendo-surprises-with-everybody-votes-wii-channel/
As for the voting thing itself, it's pretty cool. It has a "submit a question" option too. I think this could open up a new source for Nintendo to hear what there fans want.]]>Feb 14th 2007 12:58PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/02/14/nintendo-surprises-with-everybody-votes-wii-channel/http://www.engadget.com/2007/02/14/nintendo-surprises-with-everybody-votes-wii-channel/Feb 14th 2007 1:02PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/02/14/nintendo-surprises-with-everybody-votes-wii-channel/http://www.engadget.com/2007/02/14/nintendo-surprises-with-everybody-votes-wii-channel/Feb 14th 2007 1:03PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/02/14/nintendo-surprises-with-everybody-votes-wii-channel/http://www.engadget.com/2007/02/14/nintendo-surprises-with-everybody-votes-wii-channel/Feb 15th 2007 9:25AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/02/14/nintendo-surprises-with-everybody-votes-wii-channel/http://www.engadget.com/2007/02/14/nintendo-surprises-with-everybody-votes-wii-channel/Feb 14th 2007 2:35PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/02/14/nintendo-surprises-with-everybody-votes-wii-channel/http://www.engadget.com/2007/02/14/nintendo-surprises-with-everybody-votes-wii-channel/Feb 14th 2007 1:13PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/02/14/nintendo-surprises-with-everybody-votes-wii-channel/http://www.engadget.com/2007/02/14/nintendo-surprises-with-everybody-votes-wii-channel/

To use the Everybody Votes Channel, you need to update the console first, THEN go to the Shop Channel. That's what the message they sent told me.

It's allright, but I can't use my Wii anymore. My batteries are dead :(]]>Feb 15th 2007 7:01AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/02/14/nintendo-surprises-with-everybody-votes-wii-channel/http://www.engadget.com/2007/02/14/nintendo-surprises-with-everybody-votes-wii-channel/Feb 14th 2007 3:43PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/02/14/nintendo-surprises-with-everybody-votes-wii-channel/http://www.engadget.com/2007/02/14/nintendo-surprises-with-everybody-votes-wii-channel/
picture this... a studio announces a new game, lets say for example, a new FPS
- they could ask, should this game contain mature content or should we keep it nice and blood free etc?

cast your votes!

of course everyone would vote for blood, but i mean it gives nintendo and POSSIBLY (if nintendo lets them) 3rd party developers the power to design their games, based on what us gamers (who obviously already own wii consoles)actually want and will buy... i just hope they use this potential at their disposal.

Any thoughts?]]>Feb 14th 2007 5:49PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/02/14/nintendo-surprises-with-everybody-votes-wii-channel/http://www.engadget.com/2007/02/14/nintendo-surprises-with-everybody-votes-wii-channel/Feb 15th 2007 4:27AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/02/14/nintendo-surprises-with-everybody-votes-wii-channel/http://www.engadget.com/2007/02/14/nintendo-surprises-with-everybody-votes-wii-channel/Feb 14th 2007 7:50PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/02/14/nintendo-surprises-with-everybody-votes-wii-channel/http://www.engadget.com/2007/02/14/nintendo-surprises-with-everybody-votes-wii-channel/Feb 14th 2007 8:31PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/02/14/nintendo-surprises-with-everybody-votes-wii-channel/http://www.engadget.com/2007/02/14/nintendo-surprises-with-everybody-votes-wii-channel/
I'm frankly not thrilled by the service, but it seems to me more like messenger telling that Nintendo has more of networked party/social packed stuff in pipeline.

Most dismiss that as non-features. But then, many dismiss Wii itself as "feature poor". Fun is way too hard to describe in business plan, I guess.]]>Feb 15th 2007 4:26AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/02/14/nintendo-surprises-with-everybody-votes-wii-channel/http://www.engadget.com/2007/02/14/nintendo-surprises-with-everybody-votes-wii-channel/Feb 20th 2007 10:17AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/02/14/nintendo-surprises-with-everybody-votes-wii-channel/http://www.engadget.com/2007/02/14/nintendo-surprises-with-everybody-votes-wii-channel/Llamas Are Mad Explosions]]>Feb 22nd 2007 11:45AM
