  1. Space constraints by Anonymous Coward · · Score: 0, Insightful · on How the Wii Was Born

    Interesting article - lots of detail on Nintendo's desire to fit it into a small space, driven, it seems by Iwata.

    in the busy confines of the modern entertainment unit, the Wii needed to be small enough to fit unobtrusively into a space between other components

    Which makes me wonder, why they still came up with something that's clearly designed to live vertically. Something with the form factor of the typical DVD player or set-top box would fit in amongst many people's setups even easier than the Wii in its standard orientation.

  2. Crumpled slashdot by Anonymous Coward · · Score: 3, Funny · on BumpTop, Pushing the Desktop Metaphor

    Hah! Watching the video I noticed that at around 6.05min they pick a window to screw up and discard. And the window of choice? It's clearly displaying slashdot!

    News for nerds. Stuff that crumples.
