Wii emits a frequency that attracts cockroaches?

So far this is just a theory, but it's something that's beginning to come under investigation. Apparently, Japanese entertainment magazine BARKS has alleged that a powered-on Wii emits a sound frequency which falls right into the range to which cockroaches are attracted. This could lend itself to a few uninvited roommates for gamers who are too busy waggling their remotes to invest some time in a little basic housekeeping.

[ItsDubC]

Negative Wii news stories tend to attract cóckroaches too.

[BloodySinner]

The Wii also emits a frequency that attracts crappy games.

[desolationstorm]

This story is stupid. Oh and thanks for the wii would like to play pic. I had to live with roaches for 3 months when I was in college I didnt mind them at all till they would crawl on me in my sleep. Though our roaches were some form of african roaches so they were not as big or creepy. I actually killed one on the wall and left the body there as a warning sign to all the roaches they stayed away they knew better. Girls werent so keen on it though but most of the time they had no idea what it was.

[NEO_X]

thats disgusting
funny

"Nintendo of America Debunks C@ckroach Rumor"

-December 14, 2007 - ...Nintendo of America says, "While it is not our policy to comment on speculation and rumors, I can assure you that our Nintendo Wii does not attract C@ckroaches..."

They said they wanted to grow the market...lol

[Regret]

[wiizy]

[HarryEtTubMan]

[JokesOnYou]

"Wii emits a frequency that attracts c0ckroaches?"

JOY

[Brainiac 8]

"When all else fails, say it attracts bugs..that will stop people from buying the system...yea...hehe!"

I thought I had seen all of the anti Wii bashing stories people could muster, but attracting roaches is a new one for me.

[john_doe]

LOL indeed, what's next, wii causes sexual impotence

[Polluted]

Well if it's true, that sucks @ss. Of course if you have a roach problem in your apartment you could just get your neighbor a wii for Christmas and hope that they all migrate next door. Hmmm...

[NEO_X]

so true so true

[iceice123]

People get sick of their Wii after less then a month. It is not like it will ever be on to attrackt any roaches.

[GodsHand]

All electronics attrack roaches.

[The Chief of Mjolnir]

Then I´m a c*ckroach...

[Odiah]

I've never seen a c*ckroach in London so up yours article.

[kobonline]

[ALItheWISE]

I KILL YOU STINKING C0CKROACHES.........

[bootsielon]

I'll never get a Wii

[Green-Hag]

How low can you get to write this article and there are people stupid enough to believe it.

[jorellpogi]

"Wii emits a frequency that attracts c0ckroaches?" - Another reason not to buy a Wii. :)

[Bon Scott]

The 360- RRODs,
The PS3 collects dust,
and the Wii is the pied piper fer corckroaches.

Gaming consoles are certainly interesting this gen aren't they?

[Rice]

OMG, my friend has major roach problems, ewwwww that meens his Wii has c*ckroach eggs on it......... ewwwwww.......

[ShiftyLookingCow]

I love the filter system! c*ckroach ftw

[TwissT]

I just really hope it is not true because my friend has a Wii and his living condtions are really under par. Well if it is I would really love to do an experiment for the sake of gaming and science.

[Garrison]

LoL, can we actually call Nintendo fans C@ckroaches now? Lmao cuz they are attracted to the wii. hehehe

[LanRanger]

It's not a bug, it's a featur.... no, that actually IS a bug.

[thepill88]

As VG charts states... my bad, I had to say that... debubble me if you want... I thought it was witty...

[Madbrain]

Kiss my c0ck (roach)

[mrguru]

keep your house clean and dont live like a bumkin and you wont attract any. they must have roaches in their offices

[Matpan]

Just imagine the INCREDIBLE amount of fanboy war this article could have raised if the console had not been the Wii but the PS3 or the Xbox360. hahahaha sorry but it is just too damn weird.

[TheDietzofLegends]

Just get some Wii's together start playing some wii tennis and not only have an amazing serve but squish some bugs too. Or the perfect ploy to rid the world of radioactive resistant critters. Lure them to an abandoned apartment take a wii set it to play SMG then bail the place and wait, watch, and blow up the apartment.

[Guardian0fPeace]

good noe dude, someone should seriously do that!
