    This would have been better off as a Xbox 360, all that gold, its a good conductor right? Might make it RROD proof!

    No.

    And I wouldn't want to pay for something like this even if it were a superior console (i.e., PS3).

    "Via Kotaku"

    I'll leave the same comment here that I did there anyway. This is what we get for paying people millions to kick a bit of rubber around for an hour and a half.

    @PurpleMonkeyDishwasher:: Footballs are made of leather anyway, so I hope it isn't a football reference.

    If it is then It would be refering the the insane money they make; however there are many other sports personalities that earn more; F1 drivers are the real cash whores.

    @PurpleMonkeyDishwasher::
    My mistake, unlike when this was posted on Kotaku this article doesn't have information on who makes this crap.

    It's made by a Liverpool football player called Stuart Hughes.

    In reply to Nintendo Files Trademark For Zii, Is It The Wii 2 Though?
    Could be... Wii is already pretty hard to write in Japanese unless you resort to using deprecated characters... Zii can't even be written properly - you may be able to approximate it with half-sized vowels? Of course they'd go with that, lol

    How could they trademark the name of something another company already made? That's the most ridiculous thing I've ever heard of.

    So if you are going to mount WiiMotes onto collapsing buildings, would you put the IR sensor bar on the top or bottom floor of the adjacent building?

    $40 is nothing in scientific research. In comparison, a plastic box with two wires running through it costs over $100.
