Wii Really Can Rumble!

Turns out the ‘Wiimote’ rumble story I commented on yesterday was innacurate. See for yourself.

No Wii Remote rumble? Kittsy spotted that I’d made a mess of page 15 just after we finished the mag. It was too late to correct and resend the page to the printers (apparently yelling “Hold the presses!” doesn’t actually result in boiler-suited workmen running about like mad and machinery grinding to a halt). So we forget about it, assuming the worst that might happen is that a few readers might write in to point and laugh at our mistake. Of course, now it’s all over the internet. And we look very silly indeed. So, to clarify: the Wiimote does have a rumble. And a speaker. Shigsy isn’t going to kick out either feature (as far as we know). DON’T PANIC.

It’s actually refreshing to see a major publication such as NGamer admit to making a mistake and take it so light-heartedly.

Ricky Coulter is most often found on Facebook, evil den of mass dementia that it is. Most of his content is set to 'Friends Only' at the moment, so feel free to send him a friend request - just be verbose and descriptive as to who you are, how you found him, and why you want to be friends, as he is a paranoid caveman and thus does not trust complete strangers.
