According to John Rodman, group product manager for the Xbox platform and Xbox Live:

“We don’t feel like the Wii customer and the Xbox customer are the same thing,” he said. “We think that as soon as the Wii customer turns 14 they want something else.” source

Ouch. I own a Wii (soon to be 2 since I won another 1 from a raffle). The last time I touched the thing was to remove the batteries because apparently they drain like a mother - better watch my mouth, I’m too young to be talking like that. (I’m 22 by the way).

So once this kids turns 14… out goes the Wii and in comes the Xbox 360? (or well, more like out goes the [insert latest Nintendo console here] and in comes the [insert latest Microsoft console here])

Where the heck are all my Mii invites? That parade feature on my Wii only has about 6 Mii’s jogging in their little marathon (my code is on the bottom right).

I want to add everyone from Heroes.

    OMG, if I had a Wii, I would totally add everyone from Heroes. I think Sylar is so well done. Haha.
