A Small Collection of Archived Wii Message Board Official Nintendo Messages

from my Wii Family Edition (black) - it was used when my family got it in March 2013 to replace our other Wii (disc drive died) and apparently the former owners got some system messages - as did we, one message being from when we first obtained the system.

Images:

excuse the quality, automatic shutter speed on iOS is a bitch when attempting to get pictures of CRT screens. (inb4 just use a capture card)

Full texts:

under cut as they are incredibly long, sorted (as best as i can tell) chronologically.

Wii U is the all-new home console from Nintendo. It's not just an upgrade—it's an entirely new system that will change the way you and your family experience games and entertainment.

This is supposed to be the outfit that "protects" Link from acquiring frostbite pfffttt

Between this top and the mandatory acrylics that come with the new arm, gotta say I'm loving how much Nintendo keeps leaning into GNC Link XD

MINI UPDATE: (Guys, I've already updated this post with the correct info. The "protects" part was supposed to be a joke about how skimpy the outfit was. I didn't realize the outfit gave an attack bonus at first, either. That was it. That was the post. You don't need to keep sending me messages trying to inform me about the frost attack. I know, I promise).

Update I: Just realized they gave him a set of blue acrylics for his left hand

Link really do be out here serving cunt 💅💅✨✨

Update II: Many thanks to the people who pointed out that this outfit gives you a special frost attack when in cold temperature areas, it doesn't actually protect you from the elements. I'll be honest, I am purposely avoiding any guides or walkthroughs for my TotK playthrough (since I'm trying to replicate my BotW experience). When I found the Frostbite Shirt, I was just happy that I finally had a piece of clothing that I thought could protect me from dying of hypothermia (was chugging spicy elixirs like you wouldn't believe) so I didn't notice the attack bonus until a bunch of you pointed it out lol
