Not even the environment is safe from Reggie

SUCK IT, MOTHER EARTH. REGGIE JUST KICKED YOUR ASS AND TOOK YOUR NAME.

On an actual note, come on. Usage power alone for the Wii makes Nintendo appear green.

Granted, I know nothing of their internal procedures and how they do/do not recycle, conserve, or anything else. But not having access to a private company's information shouldn't automatically discount them, GreenPeace. I know there's a tech named after you in Chrono Trigger, but that's as close to gaming as you need to get.

I just thought it was silly enough to post about.

Yeah, it should be noted that they scored a 0 because they don't provide reports to Greenpeace. Sensationalism at its finest.

meh GreenPeace is a bunch of psycho's anyway. I honestly wonder if nintendo just told them to take a hike when they asked for the info they wanted.

I could care less about this report. I want to hear about when is Wii production going to speed up. It could be like Saurmon chopping down trees and digging out the earth to make them. Get it done.

save the trees!

I've played Zelda enough to know Nintendo's stance on deforestation/defoliation.

You can see Nintendo's stance on environmentalism reflected in Disaster: Day of Crisis: where nature is the ultimate enemy.

Where did you find those graphs, Dr Mario Kart?

The image was originally hosted here, at this tech blog. I'm sure they have an article about it somewhere.

Nice find. I might have to turn my WiiConnect off from now on.

I love such enlightened people.

[quote name='The Crotch']Before he was banned, Mana informed me - seriously, he directed this tidbit at me in particular - that PS3 energy consumption is somehow lower now.

EDIT: He did not specify just how much it has been reduced.[/QUOTE]

If you buy a system now it is, but the majority sold right now apply to the chart.

Greenpeace is a terrorist organization. Their tactics are highly... uh... terroristic.

If you tell Greenpeace to take a hike, they will take that as a friendly suggestion.

How do you think Nintendos are made? By baby seals. And what happens to baby seals who don't work fast enough? You already know...

 

[rapsodist]

I heard that Reggie likes to go clubbin'.

They are not a terrorist organization per se, but they do fund ecoterrorists:

Quick! Someone call Ted Turner! He'll know what to do!

I still keep Wii Connect 24 on.
