I just connected my Wii to the Web via a far too expensive original Nintendo Wi-Fi USB connector. And guess what doesn’t work with Vista 64 bit. Why did I purchase that crap anyway? So I had to hook up my notebook to the web causing my meticulously planned cable setup here in Graz to end in chaos. And after two depressing hours it finally works.

I am writing these lines while I wait for the Opera Browser to finish downloading to my Wii. And I tell you: The most awkward thing is to enter your credit card details with a Wiimote to the latin inspired muzak from the Wii Shopping channel. It doesn’t feel right. And 5 € for a simple web browser are just too much. But I am on my spending spree so why not? Hey and I still got 500 Wii Points left for a nice NES game I can get for free everywhere else but obwiiously not from Nintendo. Sons-of-a-bitches!

And frankly I don’t know why I’ve downloaded the “Everybody Votes” channel…

And these line(s?) are written in painstaking manner on the Wii. Never again. Although I notice that I get faster with every word. Only the rumble function when hovering over any key on the virtual keyboard gets more and more irritating…
