This thread is for one reason (now two), related to smokes thread about being excited.....this is why....yesterday if anyone caught wind of it, Joystiq and Kotaku posted a blurb about BIG NEWS at midnight . . . . . the processors have started shipping from IBM.....uh...yeah.....big news.

You wanna know why some people aren't as excited as months prior? There's a reason right there - good luck finding the article - they've buried it like a plauge infested corpse.....granted Joystiq isn't a goldmine of info - but this was hyped. I personally did not care what the announcement was and was not suprised when I read this morning what it was (they did not say who it was relating to yesterday) because I'm at that point.

The big news....more pointless nonsense, maybe a jab back at Nintendo - but it's way outta hand at the moment.

And I don't think the Wii having a housing of plastic should be any type of revelation...I would say this is common sense.....I mean it won't be made of metal or wood or fairy bones or paper. Every console housing is made of plastic.......no...really, they are. :|

ya i saw that too, they had an article where they apologized too.  I dont trust Joystiq anywya so its no big deal.  As for the plastic thing, if it is like apple's products then thats stupid, i like it on handhelds but a consoel? No.

Like REVfreak said, I'm not fond of it being on a console. But again, I don't trust Joystiq.

maybe we both are misinterpreting the news.....because I cant really imagine casing on a black Wii, and I really cant imagine holes being cut out on it so you can press the buttons....

Thats what I meant by saying taking the mickey. You were making a tongue in cheek remark or playing a joke. However way you want to put it.

When they spill more beans, you lot will combust. Not that that would be surprising at all. Lunatics. It may not feel like plastic, but it is. It's such an obvious fact that noone even discussed it because it was such a blatant thing. It'll be good quality plastic like DS Lite or maybe PS2 controller. Nice and smooth.

Thats not big deal if its made of plasitc. Most consols are. If it looks like the apple products that would be cool, as long as they don't break easily.
