Default Wii!

Got it at Target this morning (walmart filled up by the time we got there). Haven't gotten to Zelda yet but Wii Sports is surprisingly fun so far.

My friends little brother got one today.
He only wants to get need for speed carbon.
That defeats the basic purpose of also buying a special controller-ma-bob.

I got one this morning, all it took was a 5 hour wait in the (near) freezing cold... Got there around 3AM (ended up being 12th in line), store opened at 8 (handed out tickets at 7)... I'd say the line didn't reach sell-out capacity (they had 69 units in stock) until around 6-6:30 or so, but there were definately a lot of people lined up (and attempting to line up) by 7...

I just picked up Zelda for now, but I decided to first create a Mii and set up the internet connection settings... And now that I've done that, it's updating itself... Slowly...

Plus the Redskins are on with their new quarterback

So I'll get to the games later on... I kinda wanna pick up SMB (havn't played any of the previous games before) and maybe Excite Truck eventually...

Edit: For the record, one of the few stores around here that had a midnight launch (Toys r Us in the next county over) apparently had about a hundred people in line by around 6, and double that by 11...

My Gamestop had a midnight opening, so I took my brother to that. They went in order of preorders (I was first) so that was nice. I snagged my Wii, Zelda, Rayman Raving Rabbids, 2,000 Wii Points, and an extra Wii-mote and Nun-Chuck.

Theres a few stores that have a million. Seen ones with 210 and 140. Just have to call around.

As for friends, you have to go to the address book, get your Wii number. You both need to add it, and then you can be friends and exchange Miis and send messages... for now.

I'm using internet from my mac's airport! It works beautifully. And it looks so sexy next to my 360.

Wii60!
