My room mate pulled out his Wii during a Christmas party and everyone played with it. And fun times were had by all.

We were at a toy store the other day and found an electric guitar toy that made awesome solo noises when you pretended to play it. I swear, I wish I had it. I wouldn't curse my brother by sending it to his daughter though.

I need to get myself a PS2 so I can have these at my own home.

The funnest thing about Wii was creating a cast of characters of tons of friends, and making them look like people you know.

(actual game playing was kinda neat, too. But character lookalike creation was king.)

Well, since this whole board seems to be such advocates of them, how could I not?

You know, that's what I've found about Nintendo systems over the last several generations. They may not have the most amazing graphics. They may not have the most technically or creatively outstanding games. But consistently, they provide fun. It's a vague thing to measure, but more than any other system I've played with friends, we've had more fun playing various Nintendo systems than any of the others. Perhaps if you're really into the online thing, I can see where the other systems would work better, but for the "Have a bunch of friends over and be entertained by video games" market, Nintendo's got my vote hands down.

Nintendo Recalls 3.2 Million Straps for Wii Game

[Ghoulish Delight]

MSNBC's headline: Wii-call.

JPJ~ LOL Well...it seems a lot of people are in to bucking the system.

Now what the heck do I do...I purchased the Wii but it is going under the tree...I guess I'll see if they'll send me the new strap...

He doesn't know he is getting it but he said those people must be stupid for those things to happen. Then he went off on how he is tired of people complaining about things that are their fault and how everyone knocks Nintendo and on and on....

He is quite the sarcastic 12 year old.

And I do enjoy telling him he'd better be saving his money for that, what do you call it, a Wii system 'cause mom and dad just can't afford it. He said he will because right now no one can find it anyways. {I wonder if he knows???}
