I've been finding that my site is getting a lot of questions. When I review my website stats I often see questions like "Where to buy a Wii?" or "What is the PSP resolution?" This one recently showed up so I thought I'd answer it.

I wasn't going to post so soon, but I saw a couple stories today that made my blood boil.

This story and this story report that 2 fairly well known and respected people (at least in some people's eyes) say video games are to blame for this and other shootings in recent history.

Now, I'm not going to go into name calling, but to blame the game is just stupid in my eyes.

I mean, I've been playing video games all my life and never once felt the urge to grab a gun and go on a shooting rampage. I've felt rage against different people throughout my life to varying degrees but that's never prompted me to even consider violence.

Gizmodo has a couple interesting stories, so I'll link to them rather than try and give you full details today.

First is the PS360 controller. Someone stuffed the guts of a PS3 controller into the Xbox 360 controller shell.

Next is news that Sony is considering larger drives the the PS3.

Wii. We love you, but some people question your existence. That's because they haven't seen you yet, or been able to touch you.

And Nintendo isn't helping.

According to a Podcast Interview done by Game Theory we shouldn't expect any changes to Wii shipments anytime soon.

“We are at absolute maximum production and doing everything we can...but demand continues to be really high" says Perrin Kaplan, Nintendo’s VP of marketing and corporate affairs.

But if you do happen to have a Wii, check out the other stuff we found:

Normally spring is reserved for that all-time favorite activity called "Spring Cleaning."

This is when you go through your basement/attic/garage or any other place you have stuff stashed. It is also the time you say "I wondered where that went" or "I was looking for this" lots. It is also the time you should say "well I haven't used that in a year and I didn't miss it therefore I'm going to get rid of it.

Sadly we don't do enough of that. Further, it doesn't help when console and 3rd party manufacturers continue to make Goodies we can't do without. And this spring is no exception.

That's because we are seeing 2 "must have" goodies this spring. One for the 360 and one for the Wii.

First, the Wii accessory harkens back to the days of the classic NES, with a Star Trek inspired update.

It's been an interesting week. In fact there is some news relating to 4 consoles as opposed to the usual 3.

So first lets talk about the Xbox. According to the Xbox Website there have been some significant updates to the Xbox warranty. Here's what's new:

• Free shipping and free postage paid container
• If your box is still under warranty, they will extend your coverage 90 days or the duration of the warranty (whichever is longer)
• If your box is out of warranty, they'll give you an entire year of coverage starting from when you get your console back
• Microsoft will try and give you your original console back
• They'll try and get all repairs done and back to you within five days

But Xbox wasn't the only one creating news:

So it's been almost 6 months and its still impossible to find a Wii. Back when I got mine I thought I was relatively lucky but I also felt, as did many people, that within a few weeks Wiis would be as plentiful as Xboxes.

But here we are in April and there are still no Wiis on store shelves. That despite the fact that Nintendo claims to have shipped over 8 million units.

So the question I pose today is this: Is the Wii really a hot commodity or is something more sinister happening?
