Xbox360 ArcadeThis week, it seems the thing to do is try to beat Nintendo at its own game.

No pun intended.

First, there’s the story that Xbox360 is lowering the price of its “Arcade” version to $199, a whole 50 bucks below the Nintendo Wii.

That’s great! Now you can afford to see all those games in high-definition and store all your game data on its big-@$$ hard drive.

Oh wait, the “Arcade” version doesn’t have HD or a big-@$$ hard drive…

…Awkward.

Want to sing along to Buy Mii a Wii? Well, thanks to YouTube user MeTorterra, now you can. This fellow black nerd made a video which shows the lyrics right along to the song. So now you can sing it at your next karaoke party… if people still have those… I don’t know. It’s been a while since I’ve been invited to a party.

LiveVideo has picked another one of my videos to be featured on their home page. This time, it’s Smash Bros Brawl Midnight Launch. I was trying to think why this one. All I could guess is with Cloverfield being released on DVD this past Tuesday and Mario Kart Wii coming out this coming Sunday, this video kinda touches both worlds.

A while back, I posted about Victor who sang a cover of my parody song, “Buy Mii a Wii.” And we can forget the Chipmunk remix! Well, they’re not alone. Here’s two new “Buy Mii a Wii” singers who made these fun videos on the YouTube thing. Check out YouTube users Changyboi (who replaced “black” with “yellow”) and complexbusters (who apparently has a studio audience). Thanks a lot, guys. Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery.

Then there’s this video from bowser233 featuring the crunkest Mario I’ve ever seen. Somebody likes looped animation!

If you want to hear me sound like Alvin and the Chipmunks, there are two ways to do it. One, kidnap me and pump me full of helium (which I wouldn’t recommend because I could get you arrested), or two, listen to this interesting Chipmunk remix of “Buy Mii a Wii” made by YouTube user WoodyRaverDave from the United Kingdom.

And by the way, this is Grammy night. Why wasn’t “Buy Mii a Wii” nominated? I’m just saying.

Blue RibbonThank you all so very very very very much! Yes, it’s official! “Buy Mii a Wii” has over 100,000 views on YouTube alone!

This is the first Black Nerd Comedy video with this honor. And those views don’t even count the thousands of views on Revver, MySpace, Metacafe, and the people who posted my video on CollegeHumor, GameTrailers, and elsewhere.

I can’t help but to thank you, my fans, friends, and supporters, for sending it through MySpace, Facebook, e-mails, and embeds. A huge thank you to all of the blogs and websites out there who posted it on their site for news and discussions.

Special thanks to Nintendo for making this wonderful video game system, the Wii, for without it, I’d have no song to sing. And T-Pain as well, for making the perfect song to use to parody the wonderful system.

And if, for some strange, weird, possibly alien abducted, reason you still haven’t seen this music video, or if you want to get the YouTube video up to 200,000 views (and why not?) here it is for you to enjoy! Thank you again.

While surfing through YouTube, I’m came across these two videos of this kid, Victor, who is being videotaped singing along to my “Buy Mii a Wii” song! So I had to share it with you. Thanks a lot, Victor. You made my day.

I also found this video from username “cacafina” who made a video of GameSpy Magazine’s 50 greatest video games of all time, and he used “Buy Mii a Wii” in the background of the video.

Last week, I was a special guest on Coin-Op TV Live, a live Internet series on theStream.tv that’s all about video games. The episode has now been placed in the site archives, so you can watch me talk about video games, Buy Mii a Wii, other black nerds, and Smurfs anytime you want! It was a fun show to be on. So click my grinning mug below and check out the episode.

I made the front page on Revver again. Last time, you might remember “Ask a Black Nerd” being a Revver Featured Video of the Day. Now “Buy Mii a Wii” is an Editor’s Pick! It’s great. Not that many people know about me, but the ones that do seem to enjoy me a lot. That must be what Zack & Wiki for the Wii feels like…

Editor’s Pick for Revver

What’s also cool that one of the most watched vids is 5 HappySlip facts, which also mentions me. It’s a video based on the YouTube tag game, and she tagged me! (My video tag is coming soon…) Here’s HappySlip’s YouTube tag, in case you missed it.

PS3Since I’ve obviously have been so Wii-happy, I have not thought twice about getting a Playstation 3, and in doing so, had created an unnecessary sort of disdain for the system.

I complained it had lack of titles. I complained all the different re-releases of the system were confusing. I complained that it’s a sting operation to make you like Blu-Ray over HD-DVD.

And then, a Christmas miracle occurred. I got one as a gift.

And you know, there’s something about getting a video game system for free that completely changes your thoughts towards it.
