Last week my Wii completed five months and currently I'm using it much, like I do with the computer, the fact is that each day more things are released, games for PC are often improving their graphics and you have always to improve your computer to play these, then you think about buying a console to avoid these problems, being free of wasting money with hardware for some years, but in Brazil it's not like that.
Most people who visit this website probably live in a developed country like USA or any country in Europe. You have no idea of how prices are in Brazil. I often want to download some feature of Gamespot, but what to do if it's a 700 mb thing and if I have a 256 kbps connection? Most of you should have a 1mb connection and pay cheap for it, if I want a connection like that, I have to pay 4 times what I pay. What to do to play Crysis, for example, it requires a good hardware and my video card is only a GeForceFX5200, if I want a better one I'll have to pay about US$250-300. Then I realize that Computer is too expensive for me and I go to my Wii.
So here I am in my Wii, with only 5 games, I finish all and what's next? I'll have to pay like R$200 which is like US$100 for a Wii Game, cause the taxes are too high. Would I buy a Single Player to finish it and store into the Cabinet? Would I pay for an expensive single player game? I'm convicted to multiplayer ones. It's not easy to buy a imported thing, and since multinationals enterprises, like Nintendo, do not value Brazilian customers,, we don't have a Wii Remote Jacket, we can't register our products in Nintendo.com, we don't have a Wii Remote Wrist Strap replacement we don't have that sort of things that most of you have.
I'm always wondering, when will we gain attention?

God, I feel so bad for you. Here in Scotland everything's great, and we wish that we had speeds like France or Japan who are way ahead, but then you realise that other countries want to be as fast as you, and you realise that... I'm just babbling on. Sorry. I'll shut up now.
