It pays to really scrutinize those nifty game systems people randomly ship you -- even if you're a gaming journalist and people are often randomly shipping you systems. According to Ross Miller of big daddy Joystiq, the guys of 1UP/EGM really need to heed the above advice.

Mykie I do not understand how you did not find that funny, i didn't screm my head of with laughter like sycho but i thought it was pritty funny and i seriously though that it was a real wii to start with and that they had put in the wrong video into the post. Oh well Mykie it's your problem that you didn't find that funny not ours (if that makes sense).

Same stupic video doesn't play on my Windows either, so I guess it's not the OS causing the problems. (Cause Linux does not cause 'em, but solves 'em. [OSwar pt. 271983 started])
