Japanese hardware sales, Jun. 11 - Jun. 17: Effect and Cause edition



With our deepest, most heartfelt apologies to the White Stripes. We just couldn't resist the new album and certain ... parallels.

I ain't the reason
that your brain has no reason
to understand our way
You skipped the daily training
and got shocked when you hit 80
I ain't saying I'm innocent
In fact, the reverse
But if you're headed to old age
you don't blame Brain Age
You're like a PS3 fanboy
yellin' at us
'Cause Sony's price is too high.

Well, you keep blaming me
for what you did
but that ain't all
The way we took over the charts
is enough to give one pause!
You seem to forget
just how this all started
When our faces were sodden
and we were at the bottom
Well, you just can't take
our success
and make it somehow less.

Mii Spotlight: Musician edition



Another week has passed, so it must be time for Wii Fanboy's Mii Spotlight! Last week, after Eric showed off how good it was to be a gangsta, we sent out a request for musician Miis, and we got a few that we're excited about showing off. If you haven't yet seen your Mii here, be patient -- we're saving some of the submissions for later editions. If your Mii is creative, well-made, and interesting, don't despair. You'll probably see it here eventually! It just takes time to get enough that are thematically linked.

But we also need to make something very clear: the Miis you send us need to be your own, or you need to credit the original maker if you're sending photos of other people's work. We've had some complaints that not all of the Miis we've featured were actually made by the person claiming credit. It's one thing to see a Mii somewhere and make your own based on that, and another thing altogether to take someone's photos and send them in as your own. We can't check everything, and there's no real way to verify, so we ask you simply to be honest, and please remember to be respectful of people who put their spare time into creating Miis for your enjoyment.

But enough with the lectures -- let's see some Miis!
