The Wii (Update)
Well I really lucked out. Long story short - I got a Wii !
After basically giving up on trying to get a Wii, I woke up Sunday morning and received a message on MySpace from my good friend Matt V. He said that his mom had gotten three Wii’s and asked if I wanted to buy one. Naturally I said “YES!” and quickly went to the bank to withdraw some cash from my checking account and I was off to get my Wii at Matt’s house. After Matt’s house I went home, and set it up. Let me just say - The Wii totally OWNS the Playstation 3 - The Wii Sports game is so precise with the Wiimote that it actually makes your mind THINK that you actually have a bat in your hand. The technology that Nintendo has created is amazing. When I first got my Wii I did not have any games with it except Wii Sports which comes free with all Wiis so I was off again to get The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess. I called my dad and had him pick it up for me, and then the Wii got even better. Zelda is such an amazing game, the Wii just makes it 10x better. I played for three hours yesterday, and three hours today - I just can’t get enough ! If you are thinking of getting a Wii, I assure you it is well worth the money. I will update the post with some pictures / screens soon so stay tuned.
