Good to see you got a Wii dude...

I want one too...but I'm waiting for Nintendo to supply the Wii's worldwide without any shortages. I'm waiting till the day when I can walk into a store and say I'm buying a Wii and the store owner just simply say "Okay".

I am guessing that would be mid Feb 08

 

I got real lucky with my Wii.  I had waited outside Toys R Us on launch day to buy one for my brother for his birthday, but did not get one for myself until around July.  I walked in to Best Buy to just look around and the guy at the door said "We have Wiis, just to let you know"


Err...Brawl comes out Feb 10th. You will NOT be able to find a Wii in the middle of Feb. Try beginning of April at least.

IDK, I would think MOST people who want brawl already have a Wii (or will get one the holiday season)...

I'm really having fun with SMG. (Sounds like an uzi or something. Lol) - but it is a "Killer" game.

The resident evil looks really cool, and this zack and wiki thing, i cant find it anywhere.

SSX on Wii?!? - AWESOME i LOVED SSX tricky

Let me tell you - SSX Blur on Wii is awesome, pure 100% awesome.

However it is not for the timid! It is one ridiculously hard game. The control method is absolutely awesome and definitely a great spin on what you'd probably be used to. It's not easy to get into, but once you've got the hang of it - moving feels so natural and pulling off specials (or ubertricks as they're known) is quite literally a work of art.

SSX is definitely one of my recommendations for the Wii for a true hardcore challenge. ;)

I'd also recommend SSX Blur, but be prepared to hate it when you first start playing it. It took me a couple of hours to adapt to the new control scheme. It's a ton of fun though.

 I know a ton of people who say they might buy a wii after brawl comes out. Without brawl they don't want it so bad that they are going to try searching for it with the shortage we've been having.
