I, for one, welcome my Wii-based robotic death machine overlords

As jwz would say, "Welcome to our grim meathook future."

Video courtesy of markvd. Let it get halfway through and the boring tennis crap will stop -- that's when it gets innaresting. See what it's holding in the second half? Now it just needs wheels and a chainsaw and... oh hell, we might as well just stencil "T-1" on it in honor of the first generation killing machines we saw in Terminator 3: Rise of the Machines!

We are not

They need to be careful not to let that Wii controller get slippery. If it slips out of the operator's hand, the arm's going to kill someone.

I approve of your icon, btw.

This seems to be the natural progression of our technology. First, "Hey, let's see if we can make this robot play tennis!" followed soon with "Oh man, let's replace the tennis racket with a sword!" Plasma rifles with forty watt range are next.

If they're going to be our taskmasters, it will need a wip.

I was waiting for the sword to come loose and impale the computer screen or something. =)

Wheeeee!
