| Parental Controls The reporter is a moron.
From the article:
"Other parents, however, complain that Nintendo's scheme is unsatisfactory, and that the Wii browser lacks a "cyber-nanny" or filtering function."

| Quick comment:
People are at arms over some porn, or Janet jackson exposing a nipple. How come there is no revolt over the US military sponsored/approved games from SOCOM that train kids to be mass destroyers/murderers ? The TV ads for those games are bad enough, let alone the actual games.
Sorry, but I'd rather have a son sneek into some porn site to see pretty naked ladies than having him play those excessively violent games that train kids to kill people. | |

1 edit | Oh Great! Another "I want society to raise my children" story.
Why don't they quit flopping their kids in front of the TV? get them off their fat little asses and do something with them.
Video games and TV weren't invented to be your freak'n nanny!
If you don't want them to look at porn on the web, Block it! If you don't want them to see violence on TV, Change the channel!
Quit blaming all of your little fat bastards problems on everything but yourself. Don't limit my choices, Limit your kids! | |

| How about this? So can your Wii be infected with a virus?
So you just watched some pron, and the kids came home, so you quickly switch to Mario. No prob....
"Daddy, why is there a sex ad popping up over the game?" LOL!  | |

| Can't any modern console do this? Since todays gaming consoles of course allow for broadband connectivity, hasn't this already happened?
Does anyone actually find this article all that surprising?
If you have access to the net, you've got access to porn.
Just set up the parental controls.

| Re: fake? "DAMNIT! You know what I caught our son viewing AGAIN!! It's that goddamn WII sex game!!!"
This is completely insane. Why buy your child something if you have absolutely no idea what it is capable of doing???
"We need to keep them protected from people who want to invade a fun game like the Wii,"
Since when is the Wii a game? Its a gaming console.
Parents, get a clue?? Please? For the love of god... | |

| 50 Years Ago ... The local news stand on the corner was the neighborhood porn gateway. Are Wii-buying parents forgetting they learned about sex from somewhere other than the good church? Doh!
U guess wii now need a parental block feature on the Wii as well as the TV. | |

| New porn device Breaking news...
Children can watch porn on a new electronic device called a Television. Devised by a group of Satan worshiping pedos in the 1920s the TV enables children of watch filth at the touch of a button. It has no parental controls so can be used by children at any time. For the sake of the Children destroy this spreader of naked flesh. | |

@rogers.com | why do we care? Think about it, why is it really that big of a deal if the kids know how a penis works? They're going to find out eventually anyways. | |
