Dirty Cheats on the Game


Why oh why oh why...

...do people spend good money on the latest video games and then immediately search for "cheats"?

The new gaming sensation Nintendo Wii appeared to have approached the gaming set with colour, music and fun. No hardcore war and shoot em ups here - just jolly old favourites from previous Nintendo consoles. The Nintendo DS classic Mario Kart was re-vamped and now you can pick up Mario Kart with Wii Wheel and have good clean driving fun with friends and family. But evenn this innocent game has entire websites dedicated to being a dirty cheat. Wii Cheat Mario Kart offers ludicrous methods of enhancing your game experience whilst you fiddle and twist the wireless wheel controller.

The Mario Car game reminded me of a particularly dirty off road experience we had when the land rover we got from the local car hire firm got stuck in a dirty big puddle only in real life when your car gets stuck you have to evacuate and struggle through the mud before you can phone and wait for four hours to get rescued.

Want to play sport and get fit without getting dirty? The Nintendo Wii Sport pack lets you take part in lots of different activities without even going outside and lately all the rage amongst the chattering classes is the hype surrounding the wii fit game.

Get Fit and Lose Weight - the Dirty Cheats Wii Way

Nintendo's marketing has to be admired - it draws couch potatoes into the false belief that although they rarely leave the house to do proper exercise they WILL successfully get fit and shed pounds whilst standing on a small board in front of their TV. Even in the light of many who try to expose the wii fit as silly fad not to be bothered with by showing funny wii fit video clips the game is set to be one of the fastest sellers ever with stock shortages expected any time soon.
