I'd like a Wii, but I think I won't get one till next year...

Here's something interesting for you manual collectors:

"Nintendo: Each Virtual Console game downloaded will come with a digital instruction manual."

It also sucks that you can't use an analog stick for a nes game! I loved using the analog stick for nes games when I play GC animal crossing...

WOW!!!! There only looks 2-3 legit bids on that whole auction Grin

Ebay is a legal binding contract, if I sold one for 30k and they didn't pay I would sure there asses. They would either pay or file bankruptcy for being an ass. Still funny to watch though. I might have found once place that has some still. I am going early in the morning to test my luck.

The legal thingie is pretty much empty words imo. I never heard of anyone who sued and won (never heard of sued anyway hehe) because a guy didnt pay on Ebay. You cant exactly force the guy to pay, but you can get him to cover the expences lost around the sale. Wont be that much tho since Ebay refunds sales provision if payment isnt done.

All the high bids over $10k are fake imo. Also take a look at this:

http://cgi.ebay.com/Playstation-3-PS3-60GB-Free-Overnight-Shipping-Blu-ray_W0QQi...

Hehe, the winner got good feedback and theres even a near 200 feedback user on top there. So many people who ruin the PS3 sales for people. Was like this with 360 too.

The prices seems more stable now. Almost all ends under $1500 now. Still alot of very low feedback users that wins most of them tho, hard to say if its legit or not.

EDIT:

http://cgi.ebay.com/Sony-Playstation-3-PS3-60GB-Console-IN-HAND-w-9-GAMES_W0QQit...

Doesnt even break $2000 now even when 9 games are included.

EDIT 2:

Price are going down alot. I saw a 20gb model that ended at $802 and a 60gb model ending at $921. No suprise tho, not to sound "important", but i knew this was going to happend. Its just too many people who are trying to sell their consoles. But getting like the double for what you payed for it is still great

I waited in line at Walmart for about 13 hours to get it. They received 31 Wii's and the line was full before 2 pm. There isn't a Wii left anywhere in Knoxville, I had a friend driving all over the place to find one. The controls will BLOW you AWAY, they are 10x better than I expected. I have only played Wii Sports so far, which is fair at best. I have Red Steel and am going to get 3 more games to night, I will post more later after work.
