Where did you find this?

Also, you programmed Smoom to be a quitter? What a terrible robot, you will lose money in sales.

Mmm, I'm loving all those laggy TVs. And it's after Hobo? A good date indeed!

And then, even though the tourney is in person, connect the Wiis to each other through the Internet for all matches, especially doubles. LAG OVERLOAD!

There actually isn't any lag, and even if there is, it's pretty much negligible. It's just heavier than a normal controller and somewhat bulkier. Plus, if you mix up channels with someone else, their could be interference, backseat playing, etc. And let's not forget battery johns.

And if you lose the receiver...well, your controller becomes useless. It makes a nice paperweight though.

I did that once just to see how it worked. There was a hefty amount of lag despite the Wii's using the same connection, and being within like, several inches from each other.

Oh, and your little bit about wavebirds applies to wiimote users too.
Your nunchuk/classic controller are useless without the initial Wii remote. Battery johns, blah blah.

You'd have to be pretty elaborate to get that backseat playing one working, though.

I hate playing on laggy T.V's. But playing on a laggy TV with a laggy controller is just funny :).

Don't worry, if the trend continues, the next smash game will be slower and will play just as slow.

Also, it's elaborate, but if people were crazy enough, they could pull it off. There's no rule about it, durhurhurhurhur. <_<
