Strong Bad Wii safety video

This video was posted on April Fools Day, so I’m not sure what they intended us to think.  My first thought is a WiiWare game from the Homestar Runner Bros.

    That was quite amusing. I especially enjoyed it when StrongBad was suggesting open places to play, such as an abandoned airplane hanger. Quality.

    Damn straight. Does anyone actually use their wiimote jacket?

    @Red Mozzie

    I use my jackets. I got used to the bigger feel, and I like it. It’s pretty inconvenient to slide the remote into the zapper shell, though, and to change batteries, etc, but I generally just keep one in there and make company take it out when they wanna play.

    Long live homestarrunner.com… I love those guys. Strong Bad + Wii = awesome. I doubt they’d actually make a Wii-ware game, but you never know… and it’d be sweet.

    They have Wii-specific flash games on their website, just go to

    http://www.videlectrix.com/vii/

    You can also access that from their regular games page, but not all of them work with the Wii Remote alone:

    Ah Homestar Runner. Gotta love em. I remember a while ago, when G4 still had a bit of Tech TV in them, they had an interview segment with the Brothers Chaps. That, and a bunch of other materials from the DVDs, suggested they were very much of the Nintendo persuasion.

    Glad to see that continue.

    Also if anyone saw the Limozeen vid recently, I’m sure you noticed the Wii’s Guitar Hero Les Paul.

    I didn’t see this vid on the site on April 1st… nor do I see it now.

    The first Homestar cartoon was made on Mario Paint.

    @Platinum - it was! It was part of an easter egg at the end of Strong Bad email #192.

    If you click on the diskette box at end, it brings up text that says “3uSyK2RdlUY” which is the YouTube code for their video.
