It’s amazing what you stumble upon from time to time…

Parking up this morning with Becky as we descended into town we came across what could only be a “Wii-Van”

I can only assume is motion controlled and is possibly driven with a wii-mote.

Notice the complete lack of a stearing wheel ?

I took some more photos for your viewing pleasure, although looking back i’m sure I looked like a bit of a weirdo taking photos of someones van in the middle of a car park but hey, I don’t think I can actually look that much more embarassing than I do anyway.

The front was lavishly decorated with the traditional Nintendo DS whoring and the back was covered in WiiFit. I can only assume the person who looks after this van must hate their job. It’s not as if we are talking about the Nintendo of old, this poor man, or woman, doesn’t have the joy of going from shop to shop and enthusiasticly talking about the next Zelda, or whats coming from Rare, or anything remotely interesting. They are more than likely given a script that makes them whore out the next big motion controlled waggle fest to hit the Wii that will sell millions to people who buy the game play it once then watch it collect dust and assume that now they have a console they are now gamers and fall into the “Casual” market of gamers.

The frustrating thing being is that the only real thing traditional Nintendo fans have to look forward to is the new Metroid game, and thats probably years away and I hate to say that I have a feeling Team Ninja may well bastardise the franchise, but thats to be seen I suppose.

Rant over I suppose, to say I am dissapointed with the Wii is an understatement. I have games, and I still intend to buy games, like Little King Story, but the whole experience is completely destroyed by the fact that to be honest, when I get home from work the LAST thing I want to do is waggle something that’s not going to give me some personal pleasure…

On other news, BloodBowl is out next friday, I can’t wait, ordering it shortly so I can do the early download on Monday and so I can get straight into the fray on Friday morning.

My copy of Ghostbusters has been delayed, but should hopefully have it by Tuesday/Wednesday time.

Also, Good Old Games have a special on Ghostmaster this week, 25% off is good price for a game I quite enjoyed, needs a follow up to be honest.
