Since the Wii is getting so much sales i've come to a conclusion most Wii players are deaf blind and mute.

What do you think the statistic is 77% or 100%?

Dont you hate it when someones post looks like it's a part of your pants.

Video games are largely a visual experience, stimulates the imagination. So a blind person would have no intrest. To them playing video games is like playing with a cash register. Wooptee doo.

i once saw a video of a blind guy whooping some serious arse at some fighting game.. though of course, it could have been faked.. anyway, as for if blind people play games, i guess, why not, as for playing video games, probably not so much

You must be joking. If they can't hear it what would be the point?

Beethoven was a great musician because he knew everything about it. He was the type of guy that could listen to a song and tell you every note every chord. Which after he went deaf he couldn't do that anyway. Buthe didn't have to hear itto write it. He wasn't the type of musician that would just play with an instrument until he found a combination that sounded good. He already knew what it would sound like. He didn't need to play it nor hear it to write it. Music was his forte as in talent.

Umm he could hear at first.. and he is greatly talented.. sooo I don't think every blind person would have a blast playing a game pushing a button over and over pretending hes shooting someone..

Listen, man, if you're going to make a real lame joke about a console, at least have sense enough to do it in the right board. Unless you're blind as well...then I'd imagine it'd be difficult to read the board titles.

I like the way you tried to make a stupid troll topic and everyone just ignored your post and started a reasonable discussion instead.

I don't think blind people could play most games, but I would not be surprised to see some games made specifically for blind people.
