deep thought

I could have. Nothing falls out of use faster than video game peripherals and exercise equipment. This is both.

repair guy too expensive?

get on that thing and play!

you’re right, in the sense that if by “anyone” you mean the millions and millions of people who have a Wii with that accesory

At least they have a use. What the the hell the world is going to do with squillions of Rock Band drumkits in a year or two will probably be the subject of a reality show.

I couldn’t have predicted that the Wii itself would be my most expensive doorstop. First party Nintendo games are really few and far between these days.
