    I figure once I go to college, I'll have a television that I'll steal from my home, and a laptop. What do you say about using a wireless controller to play PS/PS2/N64/GC/Xbox games on the big screen?

    I drool just thinking about it..

    Skip on me on the illegalities.

    Have you considered roommates stealing your things in return? Don't forget about karma :p
    What's nice about that setup is you can use a Wiimote paired with your computer to move the mouse around without hunching over a desk. Check it out if you haven't already.

    Will do.

    I have a Wii at my house. :D

    Watched a Youtube video, it's lame. Reminds me of playing SMB on mp3 players, just blah.
