nintendo, industry, miyamoto, vote
...
Somehow Miyamoto's ratings have dropped from an average of 88 to 78! Stephen Colbert's ratings have pretty much stayed the same. This leads me to believe that Colbert voters are now voting for Miyamoto negatively. Please, let's get our butts back over to the polls vote a million times "100"
for Miyamoto, and a million times "1"
for Colbert.
Now this isn't to say I want to rage war against Colbert, I find his show hilariously intoxicating, and the man is a genius... but Miyamoto deserves the TIME 100. So how 'bout it folks? Wanna help master Miyamoto reach the top of all TIME?

UPDATE: The EvWiiwhere Album has been filled with the entries so far. Visit the album and use the star voting system at the bottom right corner of the images. You can submit entries here using the instructions below until the end of the global day, May 6th 2007. Then it will be all up to the votes in the remaining weeks of May.
PRIZES: What will the winners get? Since this is the internet and people can always find ways to cheat, the winners will be determined by the N+ Moderators who will take reader response, comments, and the star rating of each image into account, as well as the effort and creativity.
- 1st Prize: A Nintendo DS lite!
- 2nd Prize: A DS Browser!
- 3rd, 4th, and 5th Prize: MyOpera goodies
If you have any questions after reading, please send me a message through MyOpera.Wii has without a doubt captured the world's attention. From the predictions, to the breaking news, the surprises, features, style, size, and games, Wii has become a household name just as fast as 'Nintendo' did in the mid 80's.
Everywhere you turn, there's a commercial or store display. Every magazine cover is plastered with Wii news. Every store is trying to get you to trade in for Wii games. Every website's got a Wii news story almost daily. Wii is more than a success, it is a cultural phenomenon. Wii is everywhere. Well... almost. Let's have a little fun with the general public! 
| Instruction Manual
- Be an N+ Member. If you aren't, Join Now.
- Take pictures of the word Wii spelled out in public. Don't just take a picure of the word; find it in unnatural places, or make it yourself out of things you found there (see my two glorious examples below).
- Post each picture as blogs to your MyOpera blog.
- Include one of the codes below in your EvWiiwhere posts by pasting it in before or after the image. (use tags like Nintendo, Wii, N+, and more to help others find them)
- Come here, and post a comment with a link right back to your blog letting us and the world know to check it out.
- N+ Moderators will 'farm' the images we find from our users, and put them all in a private gallery. The gallery will be unveiled after we gather a bunch of images at which point everyone will be able to vote, or support, their favorites by using the built in voting system (
) and comments... the more votes, the better... so tell your friends to join N+ and vote!

| Examples
| Power Ups
- If you make 5 seperate EvWiiwhere posts in your blog (with 5 comment links here), we'll do a blog post on N+ highlighting your submissions, and of course, link it back to your blog for extra attention.
- We'll look at the voting results and determine some winners, too. Expect some Nintendo and Opera themed prizes.
- The more entries we get, the more we're going to be able to give away. So go nuts!
- When the world downloads the Opera Browser for Wii, they may just find you highlighted in MyOpera.
The whole point is to show off how creative you can be, what you can find out there, and what you can leave for other people to discover, and for us to be able to link back to our readers' blogs in great number for once. N+ is only the sum of it's parts and we want to show off your blogs for once. Come up with the best images, and let us boost your traffic!
This is what an EvWiiwhere post should look like!
