While he may have been wrong about the cord length compared to the N64, the wires are still short.

I would have bought the wavebird regardless (own 5 now) but it's hard to imagine that this wasn't part of Nintendo's plan from the start. Especially with all the crap they pulled with the Mem cards this generation. All companies exist to make money of course but Nintendo just does it in a way that irks me. The whole connectivity thing was probably the most obnoxious so far. Taking the component cable functionality out of new cubes to save a few pennies per system when HDTV is rapidly growing didn’t go over too well with me either.

And then everyone here defends them because they are profitable even though we are being milked for things other than the great games we bought the system for.
Hell they even milk us with the games. $20 dollars each for NES games on the GBA? How awful is that?

Laugh at Viss all you want but Nintendo is laughing at us.

"I think it's unbelivable that moderators have let this go on"

cry

You made your own bed, little vissy.

"You all should be ashamed...."

You are the one who should be ashemed. Seriously.

"Sorry, I didnt stretch the wires out and measure"

How else would you know they weren't as long, you lying sack of ****?

How cute...A little Moderator colation.

You're all wrong.

I'm a apying customer, and you guys are supposed to prevent flaming like this.

Instead, you all jumped in. This thread would have been locked 50 posts ago if it was made by another user....

So is there a little thread about me on the Moderator board to get you all over here at the same time?

I bet there is. This is insane. I even asked NAMLAS to lock this, he told me "No".

It's my thread.

Don't victimize yourself. You lied. You're now getting the punishment for lying. Don't say you didn't deserve this, because you did.

Lying about something can be considered trolling. So the first real infraction here should have gotten you banned.

I didn't say "No". I said my hands are tied.

I also told you to post in the LFAM thread.

Basically, what ludere said.

What abput the fact that this has been driven WAY OFF TOPIC?

Why are there more mods in this thread than any thread ever made? How do you all know it's here?

How come I have PMed 6 diffrent Mods and they have all ignored my request to lock the thread?

Is this thread on topic anymore?

Does it serve any purpose other than ripping me a new A-hole?

I mean c'mon...I'm not a f**** idiot...I knopw whats going on here

So since ever IGN mod happens to be in MY THREAD...because I guess I am Mr. Popularity..... Lock it. I am requesting it locked, because god knows no Moderators are any where else but here.
