Alright, recovery over. To Do list: 1) Take Wiire off of homepage. 2) Put Joystiq as homepage. 3) Join Twitter, and follow everybody mentioned before-James, Mike, Andrew, Scott, PictoCast, etc. 4) Ask what all of your blogs are, if applicable. So, number 3 may not get done for a few minutes, but #4 is going right here-What are all of y'all's blogs? Yes, I just typed an epic two apostrophe word. And it is kinda sad to see the Wiire essentially die. But if PictoCast continues-only in podcast form, mind you- I will be content. I am in the small crowd that likes Mike and Scott and Andrew-all of the "noobs-that-don't-fulfill-Rob's-and-James'-places". James, I like you, too, but everybody does. The others have had a lot less love. EDIT: If you can't tell by now, I like long comments. YAY!

Jus' sayin'. First, let's get the fanboy-ness out first. I less than three the Wiire, its podcast, this blog, and PictoCast. I check up on all three every single day-that I get on this computer or my iPod touch. Now, I understand the need to gouge your eyes out and cut off your ears in response to what thousands of people call their daily work at video game companies. (Wait-you didn't say that. Oh well). The games industry is very similar to politics-but it actually gives some people what they want. Imma still follow you through this blog and PictoCast, assuming it still goes on. All 30-40 people that actually read this will understand. Don't worry. You will be missed from the Wiire, I must say. Happy undisclosed new venture into...the outer edges of the gaming industry, and still keep gaming. It's fun.

And the fact that the 360 is... nowhere to be seen.

Where IS the fan art? It sounds pretty cool!

Sorry. Thought you meant Prime, like as in the mentioned videogames. And I learned something new today!

Just go to the "Store" tab on the top of that page, and... Presto! Alakazam! Any other magical sound effect word you want to put here!!

Different mic on vacation? EDIT: Why I don't stay up late(r): meant to post this on... wait for it... PODCAST 154!!! Yeah. Sorry.

It's here! It's finalully here! Thank you guys for taking the time to record this episode. Please consider releasing the edited version of the REAL version (awesomer version) of 150-- you can do it, Scott! It would be sweet!

Anybody else got an opinion? Thu, 15 Oct 2009 21:51:18 +0000 http://thewiire.com/blog/post/6119-no-more-price-cuts-for-the-wii#IDComment38868716 http://thewiire.com/blog/post/6119-no-more-price-cuts-for-the-wii#IDComment38868212 I was never expecting a price cut. I think this is a nice gift for people to buy their new Wiis, and a response to the higher powered consoles competing in price with the Wii. Only the casual gamers would choose a Wii over a 360 or a ps3 for the same price.

Now, there are !'s. It would be so cool to maybe attack certain body parts/areas with MotionPlus.

I always enjoyed customizing real life cars and racing in a realistic city.

The question was how you would change it-NOW. Not how it would have started, but maybe for a WiiHD (or a Wiiii-for James [Episode 49 or so]). Bringing the WiiHD in 1-2 years after launch would have printed tons more money.

Good marketing by Ninty... if a regular game is $50, you'll get 2 MPs for 25% of the cost. Cool.

I never really saw this coming until it came up. I mean, The Modern Warfare 2 Xbox bundle is looking pretty appealing for a PS2, GC, and Wii owner (me) Sat, 26 Sep 2009 01:22:46 +0000 http://thewiire.com/blog/post/6097-price-drop-official-wii-will-be-200#IDComment35962417 http%3a%2f%2fwww.thebarkman.com%2f%3fp%3d361#IDComment35208412 Wow...I had been wanting to change my boring old shoelace design, and then came the totally random intro to this podcast. Thank you, guys. Seriously.

Sat, 19 Sep 2009 23:16:19 +0000 http://thewiire.com/blog/post/6080-the-wiire-podcast-147#IDComment35129946 http://thewiire.com/blog/post/6080-the-wiire-podcast-147#IDComment33825266 I think I would be good friends with Ian. I love golf, and just came back Monday night from Pebble Beach, CA (I live in Tidewater, VA, East coast). I caddied for one of my friends in a Pro/Am/Junior tournament, and got to walk Pebble Beach twice. The videogame does a pretty good job of representing it; it helped to play the course frequently. EDIT: After playing it again for detail, some holes are actually partly inaccurate. Thu, 10 Sep 2009 00:45:12 +0000 http://thewiire.com/blog/post/6080-the-wiire-podcast-147#IDComment33825266
