Thankfully, no. But since I'd neglected taking allergy meds (ahh, the bliss of the weekend often means I've forgotten my vitamins, etc...) I was getting stuffy and bobbing back and forth meant headache.

In other news, just doing the sports stuff has made my arms a little sore. In that good "I just worked out" kind of way.

Nice..

Anyone get Wii Mario Kart yet?

[blueerica]

<--- I did!

It's fun... Only have done a handful of the cups, and they're fairly easy so far, but I will see as the game continues. It's really nice as a wind-down sort of game. We're looking to get a second wheel, and I think it'll be more fun for the two of us, since we're a little competitive with one another.

They had a kit with all the stuff in it (dual charger, driving wheel, golf wedge, bat, tennis racket, wheel, some other random stuff) for something like $40 or $50, which we may get since we were wanting the charger anyway and the standalone wheel is $10 - but they were out of the plain old wheels, so we're looking into it and will either decide to buy it online, or give into our impatience and pick it up retail.

Awesome!! I should be picking up my copy today (there's a Gamestop walking distance from my work that I'm in a few times a week...) I'll PM you my number once I get it and we can play over the net

I is going to get Mario Kart after next weekend

I consistently hear that the extra sporting stuff is a waste of $$$.

Amazon and I think buy.com has the wheel for $9.99.

We don't have the whole net thing set up yet. We're wireless throughout the house.. .Hmm... I need to look into this.

Egads I want to play.

And I need some Miis so that I can have my friends in the audience.

Yeah, that's why...

[Chernabog]

If you have wireless in your house, you just go into the Wii Settlings and enter the LAN information (thats how mine is connected too). Then you can send Miis back and forth, go on the shopping channel, the news channel, the Everybody Votes channel, weather, etc. And you can send messages back and forth to friends on their Wiis (as long as both of you enter each other's friend codes).

And of course then you can play Super Smash Bros. and Wii Mario Kart over the nintendo network.

[blueerica]

Yeah, I just looked in on that at the Nintendo website. I'll be hooked up to-nite!

I'm so stoked I finally got my Wii... I'm such a nerd!
