  1. Re:Bad news for the UK on Wii Now Confirmed to Not be Region-Free · · Score: 1

    I'm not a console gamer, played my games on PCs exclusively in the past, even then I was temped by Wii's innovativeness and price before these announcements, to put a pre-order in to lik-sang. However, this region-lock and uk prices had made me decided not to purchase it straight away when it come out.

    I would think this would be a similar case for a lot of none-core consumers for the Wii (i.e. people other than fan boys), to wait and see if to what extend the uk consumers would be ripped off and how to get around it.

  7. Re:Raise your hands if... on Online Replacements for Desktop Apps? · · Score: 1

    Has no one noticed the SP2 has this installed under Control Panel? I guess this is /. after all, not many would admit to be using M$. After the discovery and subsequent "testing", I was quite impressed with its diverse vocabulary and pronunciations of Chinese dirty words.
