Gadgets with FACES #170: Yet another piece of Nintendo tat
At least this one accurately represents THE FEELING YOU’VE BEEN HAD that buying a Wii triggers.
“I’d been nagged to buy a couple of Wii Motion Plus units so the missus can play the 4th game used in 3 years on that little Wii shitbox. I took the first unit out the box upside-down and a face appeared to me, a bit like when those crazy yanks see Jesus in a crisp. After shouting ‘Face!’ at high volume with confused glances from all I then inserted the remote to find the expression had changed from depressed to insolence – it also looked happy to see me, but that’s another story.”
“Excuse the shots – although big, I get confused when I have to turn the wheel round from auto. It’s meant to be a macro shot without a flash, but for all I know it could have been set to underwater fireworks. Strangely the TZ5 didn’t activate its face detection when on auto – hmmm.”
“I wonder if Samba De Amigo would have been any better if it had this ‘new play control’. Still, tworemotes look nothing like a pair of bright red maracas, so I’m out” – Courtster.
