The title looks okay to me, or do you just mean the idiosyncratic "lucky you" instead of "you're lucky" or somesuch?

I thought I needed a comma before yet. "If you haven't bought New Super Mario Bros. Wii, yet, then lucky you." I'm not sure if it is needed, though.
How are you using idiosyncratic in your reply? Are you using it by this definition, "A distinctive or peculiar feature or characteristic of a place or thing."

No, putting a comma before "yet" would have been wrong in this case.
Yeah, that was pretty much what I meant: that "lucky you" is an ungrammatical turn of phrase, like "if you think (x), you've got another think coming", or "believe you me" (archaic grammar), which can be said 'correctly' even though it's not grammatically correct.

Ah, ok then. Thanks for the answer!
