so far i only have excite truck and wii sports, but they're still totally awesome. especially wii sports, i was suprised that it was so fun to play. when i get some more money i'm gunna buy zelda, which seems to be selling out everywhere. nintendo totally kicked sony's ass.

I finally got to play too!
We only played Wii Sports, but my friend also brought some surgery game where you move your hand like you're stitching someone up (is how he explained it) and Rayman.

Wii is so much fun!
I took videos of my brothers boxing 8O
It's so intense! I was all huffing and puffing after. I like the tennis a lot and the little characters you make -- so fun!

its definately better than ps3. nintendo has always beat out companies that had better graphics and more accessories. like when gameboy came out it was this big, bulky thing that came in black and white, then i think the atari handheld thing had good graphics (for its time) and good color (for its time) but they went under because the battery lasted like 30 minutes. plus, they were simple, fun to play games. nintendo focuses more on gameplay than fancy shit. all the playstation 3 is is a playstation 2 with a new paintjob. they're just re-inventing the wheel, and nintendo's already mass-producing toyotas, so to speak. or something.

for all of those who are wii-less... i have some news for you! if youre wanting to buy a wii for a reasonable price... and cant find it in stores, look no further.

amazon.com has nintendo wii's in stock. starting at like... $450

also, wii users, warioware: smooth moves is available for purchase. i just ordered mine off of amazon.com and it should arrive in early february. im not sure if there will be some in stores for long... they will probably sell out early. but if you arent aware of how badass warioware is going to be, then you should check out the videos on wii.com of people testing out this game.

yes, i am a nintendo nerd... and proud of it
