All good points, especially from Kohler's Wired article. We're kind of irrelevant to Nintendo's thinking here. I caught an interesting article called No, Seriously, It's Called wii thet deals with the 5 stages of grief and how it relates to this situation. From the article: ''Acceptance: Guess what, no amount of protesting at E3 will do the trick. It's not going to change. The people who sign online petitions are exactly the people Nintendo are avoiding with all this. Tomorrow you're going to wake up and it being called wii won't be so bad. Maybe it'll start to grow on you, like mixing medication and bourbon. It's not so bad once you get used to it..."
Hmm, Bourbon. I think I'm still in stage 3, Depression.
hey guys, Gazunta here - I'm the guy that runs whatwasthatgame.com - thanks to Anonymous Howard for posting it! (as long as we don't get sent down in flames over the next 24 hours, heheh...but the server SHOULD withstand it...)
Anyway, just a note about email addys - they are completely, totally 100% safe. I don't sell them. I don't even store them. I don't even use an address book so I can't send you any stupid virii. The only use for the email address is so I can let you know when your game has been found. Once that's sent the email addys are destroyed locally - and only recalled if you win the month's freebie. But it's a good point to add to the FAQ, and i'll do it asap! Thanks for the advice!
