Console post =O

Unread postby PriamNevhausten » Thu May 31, 2007 12:28 pm

I am posting here on the collective's new Wii! I AM OBLIGATED TO POST THIS MUNDANE SHIT MUCH LIKE A NEW CAMERA OWNER IS OBLIGATED TO TAKE PICTURES OF THE MOST BORING CRAP.

Man, it's hard to type with any semblance of speed on this thing. I wonder if a keyboard peripheral is in the works...
"You haven't told me what I'm looking for."
"Anything that might be of interest to Slitscan. Which is to say, anything that might be of interest to Slitscan's audience. Which is best visualized as a vicious, lazy, profoundly ignorant, perpetually hungry organism craving the warm god-flesh of the anointed. Personally I like to imagine something the size of a baby hippo, the color of a week-old boiled potato, that lives by itself, in the dark, in a double-wide on the outskirts of Topeka. It's covered with eyes and it sweats constantly. The sweat runs into those eyes and makes them sting. It has no mouth, Laney, no genitals, and can only express its mute extremes of murderous rage and infantile desire by changing the channels on a universal remote. Or by voting in presidential elections."

Keyboard attachment? Why, they could call it a WIIBOARD!

Oh, the wit!

The Wii message board does have this sort of neat word recognition tool that you can use to speed up the typing process, but I haven't messed with the Internet Channel much. You may have notcied I don't even have it on my channels list.
Anime is kind of like fish in that it is better the less "fishy" it is.

Both the Wii and PS3 browsers have word recognition functions like that. It's pretty useful, but I've not yet found if the Wii browser can memorize frequently typed terms, like usernames and site addresses. The PS3 browser can, but my consoles are both so close to the laptop it's not really worth it. I suspect most people are in similar situations.

Perhaps I'd learn some decent uses for the Wii browser if I actually plugged the damn thing back in, but I haven't even opened the box since graduation. It's been gathering dust for two weeks, yikes.
