Do you have your Wii yet? At this point it seems like a gaming rite of passage to scour department stores and eBay to find the Nintendo juggernaut. However, it seems as if the days of “you just missed ‘em” are over. On one of our wanderings to Wal-Mart, Reggie and I found a verifiable horde of Wiis. Have we finally reached the era when one can actually go to a store and buy something? I know there’s a recession and all, but what took so freaking long for Nintendo to finally mass produce its highly sought after product? Or does it just so happen that the everybody who would want a Wii has already found one, causing a stockpile in electronic departments like the one in the picture below? Do hardcore gamers even care? All I know is if you want a Wii, now’s your chance. Now, if only Wii Fit were so easy to find . . .

Yay! Wiis! What's that you say? There's only five good games to play on it? Damn.
UPDATE: I just went back to the very same Wal-Mart, and they’re still there. It’s been over a week. Wow!

I used to want a wii. Then I realized they already made all their good games for it and it seems like not another one is even being talked about being made. So I bought a tv instead.

Wii is my favorite game system because I am completely incapable of figuring out how to beat a game on my own. I know… sad right! But with the Wii I can play in any free time I have. It’s really easy to play with a group of people too. I am playing guitar hero right now. :)
