Nintendo Wii’s arguments

To everyone’s surprise, Nintendo’s CEO Satoru Iwata announced on Wednesday, that the company’s gaming console Wii, which is due to make its public appearance sometime in September 2006, is not a next-gen console and that it does not compete with the PS3 and X BOX 360. The announcement is a great surprise since at the recently closed E3 manifestation, Nintendo’s console managed to capture everyone’s interest, even more than PS3 did.
The public just went crazy and waited for hours just to get a glimpse at how Wii will look like and how Will it entertain its buyers. They saw that the revolutionary controller (by the way, Wii’s code-name was Nintendo Revolution) will allow them to play for instance sports games almost like in real life. “It’s a great story, and it’s something different,” said Geoff Keighley, co-chairman of the Game Critics Awards, an independent group of journalists from 37 North American media outlets that cover the videogame industry. “It proves that you don’t necessarily have to spend $20bn on a big blockbuster game to stay competitive and get attention,” he said, pinpointing at the rapidly rising cost of developing games for Sony’s upcoming PlayStation 3 and Microsoft’s Xbox 360.

About This Site

As a guy who occasionally curates art shows and wrangles artists together, I often have to edit and post artist bios, profile pictures, and artwork images. This can be a problem, since many artists and writers aren’t used to selling themselves. Artists rarely know how to present their art for display in a brochure, and writers aren’t used to writing about themselves.

Writers often treat the bio like it’s an interview or something. Maybe like they’re having a conversation with you, the reader. While it may work sometimes, the most common way to write a bio is to write in the 3rd person.

I’m like those writers, and I’m talking to you directly, unlike the common way to do a bio. You should see my About page. It makes sense to me, since this is a bit which describes my blog’s website. When I get famous enough that I don’t have time to talk to you, I’ll have an intern write everything in 3rd person. Until then, you get to talk to me.

Like blogs of old, this one is a personal document of the comings and goings of me. Articles I’ve written, links I’ve posted, videos I liked, etc. Here, a first-person perspective is the way to go, at least for now. So, this is my site. I’m D. H. McKee, a sometimes artist, sometimes writer. Mostly just a guy on the internet.
