[...] Wii Nintendo is holding a cool project called “Ike’ll get no sympathy from us”. The idea is to have gamers send in Super Smash Bros. BrawlÃ‚Â videos of them defeating Ike while raising money for the Red Cross. It seemed like a cool idea to me, especially in light of my previous post. Here’s the link http://wiinintendo.net/2008/09/17/charmys-special-announcement/Ã‚Â [...]

@Surgical Precision: If you could find someone that could record the video, then yea, you could send it to them.

I don’t currently have a working computer… Is there any way I could submit my video by sending it directly to someone’s Wii?

@Nick: If that’s what you’re more comfortable with, then go for it.

At “Bill Gates”: Sure you did.

I have no doubt that Mickey can be trusted, but it seems more effective to me to make private donations to the Red Cross, personally.

@ExiledBlack: You can trust us. The money is going to the owner of WiiNintendo, Mickey/hey_suburbia, and then he will give the money to the Red Cross. He’s going to record that transaction as proof too. And if you don’t know who Mickey is, he’s the one that did the Wii Sports and Wii Fit Experiments, so he’s been on TV and in magazines quite a bit.

@unknown: First off, this money isn’t just going to help those that didn’t leave. What about the many people that DID leave, yet all their stuff is now destroyed? Did you think about that? And we never said we’re not going to do anything like this in the future. Do you honestly think that if we just randomly started a campaign for a random hurricane, people would donate? Probably not. By using gaming, we can get people to join in on the fun and they’ll want to donate. That opens up doors to other things we can help with in the future.

And why Ike? Who cares who it is. The whole point is to get people motivated to donate. I think it seems selfish that you don’t want to donate just because there’s no prize or reward for doing so. There’s no reason to get mad over this.

And lastly, JUST BECAUSE WE DIDN’T SAY WE ARE GOING TO DO SOMETHING DOESN’T MEAN WE WON’T DO IT. We are OPEN TO IDEAS! This is going to go on for a few weeks, so there’s plenty of time to do more things. Like unknown mentioned, we could have a tournament. If you listened to our podcast, you’ll know that we plan on doing a live stream of Brawl on a weekend. There is more coming, so don’t worry! And PLEASE donate whatever you can. Every little bit helps. Our goal here is to help people, and I’m sure lots of you want to do the same.

People were warned and those that “could” of left and “didn’t”,they suffer from there own action, no one or nothing else, I give no sympathy for those who were affected and didn’t leave… (not including seniors and hospital patients) I live in N.O. so tell me anything bout hurricanes and helping programs!!! >:[ (I left but house flooded…)

And really?? Why pick on Ike from SSBB??? what did he do to be beatin up on???(beside being cheap…) Ike from SSBB was here before that hurricane Ike!!! So find another way to raise money… Like have a big SSBB tournament with a cool reward…

(And yes, do I seem a little MAD???)
