Apparently Team Twiizers have vowed to staying away from anything related to an ISO loader. So, yes, it actually will be used just for homebrew games.

Last I heard, you still need to get your Wii hardmodded to pirate anything anyway. So this alone isn't much of an enabler.

Ho boy. Just because it's from Japan doesn't mean it's representative of Japanese humor.

This is representative of 2ch humor. If you don't know what that is, then you shouldn't be surprised if you don't "get" this video. It's like a casual blogger trying to understand /b/.

The music is really the best part.

Definitely golem droppings.

I'm a little upset that they can't choose a distinct enough typeface so that their machine does not practically say "DOUGH-HU-MATIC".

To be fair, though, I'd buy a DOUGH HU DOUGH HU DOUGH HU DOUGH HU DOUGH HU DOUGH HU DOUGH HU DOUGH HU DOUGH HU DOUGH HU

Blogspam? Are you serious? What Halloween Jack said was perfectly relevant to an article on Erik Wolpaw, you just need to lurk moar.

As a Facebook user during the whole advent of "Facebook apps," I'd say one big reason for these statistics is that the apps were introduced more as cutesy, novelty add-ons than instrumental expansions. If you look for yourself, you'll find that there is, in fact, more throw-away plaything apps than genuinely useful ones.

The result of this is that, 1) There are statistically few widely-used apps because few of them are actually worth using, and 2) The saturation of silly apps, combined with the mentality that most apps are just novelty, means that barely any users are compelled to actively browse new applications -- in other words, only the apps that were there from the start were widely viewed, and any brand new though useful app has a good chance to be ignored.

The second claim does have a notable exception in that if an application is exceptionally good, the user pool will spread by word of mouth alone. Again, this creates a steep stat dropoff in that the "great" apps will be used in great quantity, while the "okay" apps that are pretty good but nothing worth talking about will not be used at all.

In the words of David Byrne,
