My wife plays Wii with me.....
I think you are thinking of WoW players. - bdub92, on 10/12/2007, -7/+61Can you imagine if your girlfriend walked in on you playing that game?
- CheezIt9109, on 10/12/2007, -8/+52"Not an issue for most wii owners."
I'm assuming you say this because she will be playing already?
I'd say any Wii owner is far more likely to have a significant other than a PS3 or Xbox360 owner... I doubt it's even debatable. - bracersofint, on 10/12/2007, -1/+40no...
:( - evilunleashed, on 10/12/2007, -9/+41It's Levi-OH-sah, not Levi-oh-SAH.
- antoniojvr, on 10/12/2007, -9/+40Aborticus Fetus!
- evilTak, on 10/12/2007, -7/+35She'd be like, "Whoa, cool! I wanna play!"
- TheVtHokie, on 10/12/2007, -2/+22A mic used for communication in the future online games will be necessary. What fun will Smash Bros Brawl be without being to scream "Pikachu just knocked you the ***** out!"
- Gryffydd, on 10/12/2007, -0/+18This sounds great in theory, but it could be really, really frustrating if it doesn't work perfectly. Ever sat there playing Brain Age on a DS and said "Blue" about 20 times before it figured it out?
- AileenFaced, on 10/12/2007, -0/+15Ha, this'll sure take "I put on my cloak and wizard's hat..." to a whole new level. How exciting.
- profOblivion, on 10/12/2007, -1/+16+1 for sarcasm.
It had BETTER be sarcasm... - johnhummel, on 10/12/2007, -3/+17She'd tell me that it's her turn to play - she keeps wanting to play more Golf and Bowling. I'm seriously considering getting a second one so I can play Daddy's games between her and the kids. We can all play together during the day, but at night when I can play Resident Evil 4 or the like I have to wait until the kids are asleep - and then it eats into my "make wild passionate monkey love to my wife" time.

Its people like you, assuming you are serious - that are so absurd. I do like your all caps for emphasis, almost brought me over to your way of thinking.
Do you also think the Ouija board is evil? I mean, is it the pressed cardboard board? The uttering of nonsense? Perhaps the special rare earth magnifying glass made of plastic. Oh, is it the felt pads on the button of the ancient plastic thingy you put your fingers on? Oh wait! Its the ink used in the mass production from China of the board. That is what makes it evil! Or maybe, Milton Bradly isn't in the occult and its a stupid board game mass produced in China for crazy halfwits like yourself to be upset over.
Uttering nonesense into a plastic wii-mic while waving a wii-mote about is hardly going to conjure a central vortex to hell in your living room. That would totally be bad for sales. Also, everyone knows its also about the shape your fingers are in during the spell.. and the poor miis just have marbles for hands.. no fingers at all. - batman88, on 10/12/2007, -2/+14Mmmmmmmmmm, Hermione.
Like I am the only one here thinking that!?!
Don't you dare digg me down because you know you thought it too. I know you did... - o0joshua0o, on 10/12/2007, -1/+10I'm not being racist/nationalist/whatever, but try saying "Brue" instead of "Blue".
- Orlex, on 10/12/2007, -0/+9I saw "Mic" and "Pikachu" in your post and had horrible, horrible N64 flashbacks
- Otto, on 10/12/2007, -1/+10>>>"just like a REAL occult ritual"
Ummm... I hate to break this to you, but magic is not real.
Sorry that you had to find out this late in life and all, but everybody has to wake up sometime. - vypergts, on 10/12/2007, -1/+9I hate to be a grammar nazi but that is the most misleading title ever.
The Wii mic isn't rumored, it is being developed.
Harry Potter won't be using it, gamers who play the new Harry Potter game will use it.
Digg muggles who refuse to just copy the source headline verbatim deserve to be mocked. - Coffeedemon, on 10/12/2007, -3/+11If it was mine I wouldn't get to play anymore ... she's a huge potter fan.
Seriously I'm not trying to ruin your already stale joke about the social lives of game players thats been beat to death ten thousand times and now reeks of desparate comment whoring in an attempt to boost your average diggs per comment. - geminitojanus, on 10/12/2007, -1/+9Of course, that's what happens when you let go of the Wiimote mid casting...
...you're almost guaranteed to kill someone with that thing. - batman88, on 10/12/2007, -3/+10Uh.......
Where DO I start WITH this one? Maybe the STRANGE capitalization. Must BE the crazy PEOPLE at Microsoft FORCING them to PRESS the SHIFT key. - inactive, on 10/12/2007, -2/+9I wonder if they'll incorporate AVADA KEDAVRA
- inactive, on 10/12/2007, -1/+7May I remind you that girls actually *like* Harry Potter
- UncleCrapper, on 10/12/2007, -0/+6Thank god I am not the only one with that problem. Eventually I just gave up on the audio component of the game and simply selected that I was not in a quiet enough environment.
Voice recognition still has a long way to go. - VeganG, on 10/12/2007, -0/+5Yeah, if the DS can do it, the Wii can easily do it. People just like talking about the Wii as if it's a 386 or something.
- batman88, on 10/12/2007, -4/+9Damn, you beat me to it!!! Not sure why you are getting dugg down though.
Must be Slytherin croanies... :) - inactive, on 10/12/2007, -2/+7No, and I'm an ultra-conservative Republican.
It's just a story, not gospel. - Pic0, on 10/12/2007, -2/+7whisper things to hermione?
- sekhui, on 10/12/2007, -1/+6what's a "croanie"?
- Brodels, on 10/12/2007, -0/+4That makes two wands that I'll be embarrassed to be walked in on whilst playing with.
- Digg4all, on 10/12/2007, -1/+5I keep misreading this title and think a Wii Mac was rumored. I keep thinking what Apple and Nintendo joining forces would look like.
- SteveMax, on 10/12/2007, -1/+5"I keep thinking what Apple and Nintendo joining forces would look like"
Diggers' wet dreams come true? :) - TimDigg, on 10/12/2007, -1/+5I love "BREAKING RUMORS"
Whats next "BREAKING GOSSIP"? - pitchpitch, on 10/12/2007, -0/+4Only acceptable if there is a spell for LIGHTNING BOLT!!!
- mpphan, on 10/12/2007, -0/+4Rediculous!
- ahhell, on 10/12/2007, -0/+4Sounds cool....too bad it's an EA game.
- Murdats, on 10/12/2007, -0/+3I dont know, nintendogs and brain training anyone?
still reckon it doesnt have the power
dragon naturally speaking on win95, etc - calvmari, on 10/12/2007, -0/+3Pedophilio Expelio!
- Marshalrusty, on 10/12/2007, -0/+3@ ChrisWickensCom
I think I speak for many when I say: Open your eyes and close your mouth.
Personally, I think that inventing a generally new way to control games is revolutionary, even if it doesn't fix global warming. - Murdats, on 10/12/2007, -0/+3try saying blue in a deeper voice, I have no problems with it but my sister does, according to the manual higher voices arent as accurate
- inactive, on 10/12/2007, -0/+3Now...what would she think if she walked in and you were playing THIS game: http://www.vgcats.com/comics/?strip_id=227
>.> - inactive, on 10/12/2007, -0/+3Actually, I'm banking on online Wii games NOT having headphone communication. I don't need to hear a bunch of 12-year old boys swearing up a storm in their annoying prepubescent voices because they lost.
- RyeBrye, on 10/12/2007, -1/+3I don't think the Wii's processor can handle the load it would need to acurately recognize the spells. Voice recognition isn't an easy task - especially when you don't have the luxury of getting the user to input training data.
- Gholas, on 10/12/2007, -3/+5There are going to be people saying that this a stupid idea, but it opens possibilities for other developers.
I would personally love to see something like this to control the attack patterns of units in an RTS, or for sound based puzzles in platformer games. - TheTaoOfBill, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2This would only be cool if Nintendo used it for online communications.
- freetyme, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2@Bobmysterioso
I think there's a difference between the board itself and where it was made and what you do with it. I mean a lot of people use it to call on spirits, dead people, demons, yadda yadda, that's where concern woud probably come in with children (and other people) playing it.
I sorta get the Potter-hating but you gotta remember even Christian others used fantasy elements, I mean there's witches, and fantasy elements in the Chronicles of Narnia and LOTR, but then again in the Harry Potter series..they got BROOMS!
If this is true will other consoles have the mic? These games usually get Harry-Potterized over ever system imaginable. - jeszus, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2To bad the last harry Potter games sucked hard But EA putting that much effort into a game?!
- inactive, on 10/12/2007, -15/+17An appropriate edit for the description: *Wiingardium leviosah
