First Michael Jackson: The Experience trailer demonstrates how you will (not) play
Ubisoft’s put out a trailer for the Wii version of Michael Jackson: The Experience, and while it does technically demonstrate what playing the game will entail, it does so in a way we can’t quite see ourselves replicating. For one, we don’t even think our living room – which you may have seen on the cover of Sardine Can Monthly’s most recent issue – has room for that many people. Also, we have no friends.
Now then, while we sob and ponder where we went wrong in life, you should totally check out the trailer. It’s neato!

Miyamoto: Nintendo not “active” enough in online space, subscription fees a possibility
Xbox Live, PlayStation Network, and Nintendo’s Wi-Fi Connection. One of these things is not like the others. According to Nintendo mother brain Shigeru Miyamoto, however, Nintendo’s offering won’t remain the F-student of the online world forever. Will that mean subscription fees? Maybe. Bet you can’t guess who Nintendo’s been cribbing notes from.

Black Ops not heeding the call of duty on Wii?
