British retailers going bundle crazy
Over at the always entertaining UK: Resistance, resident jaded cynic Cmdr_Zorg has a few strong words to say about certain UK retailers, specifically those who refuse to play fair when it comes to the increasingly rare Wii.The source of Zorg's chagrin? That said merchants are now using the insane popularity of the Wii and crippling shortages to flog desperate consumers bundles which are, to put it charitably, a load of old bumwash. Electronics chain Dixons is one of the culprits in this growing trend, with its cheapest Wii bundle clocking in at £350 ($725). All have sold out, presumably to people who would normally have lol'd heartily at the idea of buying Smarty Pants.Admittedly, some of the bundles being offered by Dixons contain titles that every one of us should own, but that's not the point: let us make those decisions!
EA asks if you think you're a Smarty Pants
The Wii is the perfect party system, allowing a room full of boring, uninteresting people to have the time of their life. And, that's where EA comes in. Their latest title, Smarty Pants, is very reminiscent of other party games like Scene It!, asking trivia questions and all. But, there are other activities such as dancing to enjoy, should the trivia not be your thing. Anyone thinking this can topple Wii Sports as the go-to party title?
