Also some DLC stuff as well..

Thing is that 2009 has just as many titles I want, which is going to make it hard for me to play all the stuff I want, as much as I want, before I have to start buying again...can we say Halo Wars!?!

Looks like our soon-to-be POTUS owns a Wii. I wonder if Nintendo will tout that in their NPD Press Release about who bought Wiis in December.
