It's coming.....

This month, on November 19,  the Nintendo Wii will change the face of gaming as we know it! Anyone who is excited about it and would like to share your enthusiasm, feel free to post here! As the day of reckoning approaches, I will keep you up to date. I have already saved up for the system and reserved a game. Now all I have to do is survive the long wait.*sob* November 19 seems so far away....

Honestly, I hadn't known Nintendo had a new system coming out until I saw last week's South Park. Grin  Have been waiting on pins & needles for the PS3, though.

Only five more days 'til the Wiivolution! I might get the Wii version of The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess sometime after launch and give the GameCube version to my Dad. I am planning to get Trauma Center: Second Opinion during launch week as I have it reserved. Now, to hook it up to my TV without destroying my room in the process.......

Only three more days until launch! I went to Toys R' Us today and I saw that they are stocking up some Wii stuff including * drumroll * EXTRA WIIMOTES!!! I'm planning on going back on Sunday if it isn't crowded and getting the Wii, along with my game. If all goes well, by this time next week I will have my Wii up and running. Wish me luck!

The only thing standing between me and the Wii is a 24-hour block called a day. I am ready to *pop* from excitement. This is torture!! I'm trying to hang on.... ( bounces all over the room )

It is the morning of the 19th. It is the calm before the "Wii Storm." We will be leaving within the hour to get MoonCat's Wii unit and the game she has reserved. The next post you read will be from MoonCat......
And then none of us will see her for about three days....  Grin

I'm standing in for MoonCat. hehehehe  She has her Wii up and running and I'm really not sure if she will get back here this week or not.  Grin  Her father is in the habit of running new electronic gear -- like game consoles and computers -- continuously for two weeks since if there is going to be a mechanical failure in such a product, it will occur in that time, well within the "30 day return" policy most places have. MoonCat is off and running with the "burn in" of her Wii and I have promised him that I will do the same for the new Mac he will be getting in the next few months....

Mission control, we have Wii!!! I stood in the line with my Dad at the Greenwood Toys 'R' Us. The line was short, I had my money ready, it was less noisy and more organized than I imagined, the staff were very helpful, and I got extra change back! All and all, it was worth it. I created a Mii of my own and enjoyed my game time. My Dad brought a Classic Controller so he can play some Classic games on the Wii. I am very happy that all of my waiting has paid off.

Me, I'll be happy with a couple working PS2s, one for Doc downstairs, and one for Mog & me up here.  Grin

Well, she's had her Wii for over a month now and is STILL as happy as a hog in slop! (That's pretty happy for you non-farm types!!  Grin )

We are a Nintendo household. I put my foot down in the beginning and said "Settle on one system!" Otherwise my living room would be even more of a maze than it is...

I finally got my prize money from dailyrage.com, & I promised Mog we'd AT LEAST look into getting her a Wii.  I've heard that WalMart (ick) is still selling them for $250, but that the games are around $70 EACH.  That's gonna be the deal-breaker, I think.  Tongue
