I got my Wii also! Smiley  It freaking rules!  So far I played the hell out of Wii Sports and now I am playing Zelda TP.  Those are the only games I got so far but I'll be getting Metal Slug Anthology soon too.   Smiley  Nintendo wins!!

I got mine too.  Awesome system.

NGD - Any luck with the WiFi?  I'm having serious issues getting connected.

I did notice that the Nintendo.com website keeps going off and on.

I connected right through my linksys pretty easily.  I haven't actually dowloaded any games, just updated the system.  I hooked up the little Mii character, and there is a plaza where if you enable "travel" other local characters can come by and chat it up or something. 

The system is awesome so far, I've only tapped into Wii sports bowling using the character I created, but that was really fun - I played like 5 games and did some of the training. 

I spent all night at walmart in a tent and was number 17 and 18(w/ my girl) out of 30 who got vouchers/systems.  I had to head over to target to pick up an extra controller and nunchuk, and zelda of course. 

I've got another Wii system bundle that we were going to put up on ebay to cover some of the cost that I couldn't really afford.  BIN for 599.99 sound fair?  bidding is only starting at 299.99 as well.  PM me if you are interested as the auction hasn't started yet (its scheduled to start at 7PM EST.

Seems that Nintendo so far have much more serious problems than PS3 have.

http://www.n-europe.com/news.php?nid=9793

Sad that Nintendo also have problems with the launch, but on the other hand i think this is a wakeup call to the fanboys who laughed and said "Sony sux!" when PS3 had the PSX/PS2 compability problem. Nintendo also didnt make TG16 game to launch for VC and Opera isnt ready, same with the Internet Channel (maybe it requires Opera tho). Wii is a new and more advance console so its bigger chances for problems to accur, same with PS3 and 360 too.

EDIT: Another problem, some Wiis wont take the disc. Movie :\

I'll get a Wii eventualy, but not on launch (not out yet here). I'm waiting for some nice RPG to get out, and to testplay it with my boyfriend. Perhaps for my birthday (march).
PS3? No way I'm geting that, even if that means saying byebye to Final Fantasy.

That's insane.

But on the other hand... If you got lots of money, why care?
People buy cars for $300000. They loose more value than 2500 every heartbeat. Wink
