Wii Sucks?

Like the rest of you morons... oh wait, I mixed up the honey and the vinegar leads again, my bad (sounds of mechanistic fiddling... clank, bang, whiz... ch-chunk...)

Like so many others, I've become enamored with the idea of the Suny Wee...er, Microseft Pees3, hrm that's not right either... oh yes, Nintandemdo X-majiger. I know my stuff, because I went to Jarards.

Where was I going with this?, oh yes; I'm hoping to buy a Wii, having become infected--er, smitten. However, being edumacated in the school of marketing I understand all the lies--er hype, ...er institutionalized BS (...Bachelors of Science) that us consumers are continually bombarded with. My approach to consumerizing has been shifting toward a new approach, for me anyway. I characterize it as "how bad does it suck?"

In the how-bad-does-it-suck approach, a future customer rejects all of the reasons to buy a thing. After all we'd like to believe we're smart enough to determine we want, or even need, a thing. Instead he tries to ascertain the level of suck said thing possesses, and then looks deep inside himself to see if he thinks he can live with that ...er, increased sucking.

So, my search for the Wii sucking quotient has begun. Just to be sure I've done my due diligence, I'm soliciting additional er, suckage. If you happen to stumble upon this and have a voice to contribute to my search please pray, lend it.

Many thanks.

...Wii sucks because... (...points the mic into the empty darkness...)
