Man, I've been gone longer than I thought.

Yes, if a company introduces a new, or better technology, it will be adopted. I don't think I ever said it wouldn't. I fully expected the technology to become standard by next gen.



Also, has anyone commented on how Nintendo has registered the following domains?

ShallWii.com
WiiActive24.com
WiiAlive24.com
WiiAnimation.com
Wiiareone.com
WiiBeauty.com
WiiBoys.com
WiiBreeding.com
WiiChallenger.com
WiiChannel.com
WiiCooking.com
Wiiconnect24.com
WiiCountry.com
WiiCreator.com
WiiEarth.com

WiiWorld.com



And I believe there are a few more, as well. I realize domains are cheap, and this could just be Nintendo not wanting anyone else to register them...But obviously this is a sign of something to come.

Also, am I the only one who was excited about the controller having a speaker? Very cool. Especially combined with WiiConnect24. It could essentially be used for VoIP (assuming the rumors of an included mic are true)...I think calling a friends Wii (or even just buzzing them or something) is pretty cool. Not to mention hearing a fishing rod unwind while casting in LoZ:TP.


Oh, and I tried to contribute Squeek. But I just gotta point out to dummyman that what he was saying was not opinion. But I'll leave it at that.
