Look at what I found while browsing the gaming aisles at Munich’s biggest downtown electronics store:
A truckload of WiiMote Maracas add-ons - the harbingers of Samba de Amigo party-gaming-madness.
A single retail box, containing a pair of maracas, is priced at 20€ - fair considering the sturdy feel of the item.
It’s a shame that Sega can’t bundle the game with maracas, since Nintendo won’t approve of WiiMote add-ons enlarging the controller - and thus making it a better device to wreak havoc in unhappy children hands.
The gaming experience is very different with the maracas and I’d urge you to get a full 2P set.

As avid listeners of any of our
*undso podcasts (e.g.
Bits und so,
Games und so) will most likely have
discovered, we have a
crew
page featuring ad-hoc cropped photos of every team member.
Timo has decided that we
all deserve better and consistent headshots and is busy putting them
together. As much as I’d like to share the pre-production versions
with you, I can’t ;) I suggest you watch either
Timo’s twitter stream and/or
the
Bits und so website for a
future announcement.
Stop drooling, will you? There’ll be enough chance for that once
the photos are actually out … With the first couple of new photos floating around on our internal
mailing list,
map let me
know that my new photo reminded him of
something(
.mov,
YouTube,
more) - complete with
some photographic proof included in this post, right after the jump.
Oh, before I forget, we also have
our amazon wishlists available to those listeners that feel like doing something good and
shelling out some bucks for us. At this point, I’d also like to thank
all those listeners that keep flooding the studio with sweets and beer
- as for the beer, I don’t drink any, please include some
fancy soft drinks for me, such as some
AriZona Iced Tea from your
last U.S. trip ;)
kthxbye.
