Wii-kipedia
Wii-kipedia is a Wikipedia-based video game released for the Wii console. It was created in collaboration with the efforts of great thinkers such as Bill Gates, George Romero, Stephen Hawkings andShigeru Miyamoto.
The Plot[edit | edit source]
The game is about creating new articles that has wiki sense and post them with other player to build an Mushroom Kingdom Wiki, called Wii-kipedia. When you try to build an article, the real history starts.
The Action-Adventure[edit | edit source]
The game is about creating new articles that don't make sense and post them quick before the evil moderators delete it. These moderators sometimes hunt you down and can take all of your lives. You have to create a minimun of 80 articles and then go to the Microsoft building and blow the sucker down. Next, you must hack the dictionary.reference.com website and upload porn images on the page. If you manage to do this before the Crazy-geek-with-a-shotgun blows your head off, you win 200 points.
The Controlers[edit | edit source]
You use the Wii Remote and Nunchuk. The nunchuck is used to move the mouse, and the Wii Remote( is used to type on the keyboard. This can be really challenging, considering that the keyboard on the screen is considerably small. In fact, most of the game's difficulty relies on the fact that you need to aim those keys really fast before those moderators kill you.
“What the fuck? These controls suck! I'm gonna go play Super Mario Galaxy.”
Multiplayer[edit | edit source]
There is a multiplayer option as well. To access the multiplayer mode, plug your telephone cord into your TV, call some of your buddies[1] and ask them to help you build this stupid website on Wii. The biggest challenge is not only managing to make the call after such an unrealistic electronical operation; but once you achieve it, managing to convince your friends that you're not really out of your mind.
Your friends help the main player (you) as lumas, which can only type very slowly and drag around words, star-bits, and links.
Easter eggs[edit | edit source]
This game has a lot of hidden Wiki-related content, which is there for the sole purpose of promoting Wikipedia. It is the only reason why the creators of Wikipedia authorized the release of the game. For example:
- On Level 3, when you reach the Old lady at the Cabin, there is a poster in the background which reads "Vote Sanger or die on the stake, sucker";
- The Boss's Lair is "Village Pump";
- The little icons that spin around the main character's head every time he hits himself are the same icons that appear in the Wikipedia logo;
- The Moderators' faces are shaped according to Jimmy Wales, one of the creators of the first version of Wikipedia.
Wii-kipedia Console[edit | edit source]
It's been rumored for quite a while that there are plans to create a Wii-kipedia Video Game Console. This console, which is similar to the Nintendo Wii, allows you to edit video games as you please. You can change part of (or all) the game's plot or you can delete some of the bad guys who make you start all over again. The idea is still in discussion and could be completely removed.
