I can see where they'd be cool, but how much $$ are they going to be and it's yet another controller laying around my living room in order to play Wii games. I sort of liked it better when it was just the plain old wiimote, not a closet full of accessories.

That looks really gimmicky except for being able to play some games on it instead of the TV

I actually think it would be really cool for the Fit.  You can do a lot of that stuff without a full TV.

I generally don't care much about grammar, spelling, punctuation, or sentence structure in here (hi Jen), but that was awesome Kerm.

The auto correct will get you often. I so wish you could get swype on the iPad.

Its big draw is asymmetric gameplay. Imagine a D&D game where the
Dungeon Master uses the tablet, while the other nerds use the the
screen + wiimotes. Cheez could probably explain it better since he's
a level 9 dwarf barbarian.

There's only the balance board that's an additional
controller. This new controller will replace the classic
controller altogether.

I think the wiimote still gets used. They used in the golf demo.

It is - but microsoft is doing the same thing with XBox, and they're going to let me use my ipad, iphone, ipod, or android device instead of buying somethign new...

for my first round pick, I select sega genesis.
Do not follow where the path may lead. Go instead where there is no path and leave a trail.
