And i am proud of it. It owns.

I got zelda, rayman and excite truck. I only got excite truck because there was a special where if you got 3 games you got a $20 gift card. I wanted redsteel but they sold out, so im going to exchange excitetruck for it later.


god i am tired.

I wonder how the Zelda is. I remember the last Zelda was pretty gay and had some uber retarded graphics. I don't remember which console it was.

I've had a Wii on pre-order months ago for my hubby's christmas present. I got an email yesterday from the store saying that they can only honour pre-orders from customers who ordered even earlier than i did.

Great. :mad:

12 hours...

I got Rayman, Wii Sports, a Classic Controller, and a point card.

Plus I sold my spot in line, made some extra cash. I already preordered last month...so this was going to be my second Wii anyway.

You mean Wind Waker on the GameCube? I thought it was a fantastic game...the graphics were quite sweet. It reminded me of a living cartoon.

Rayman is all good and whatnot, but I'm ecstatic about this Zelda. If you haven't gotten it already put it as your next game to buy. For me, the next one is RedSteel. whyyaaa!

10 minutes....Zelda and Trauma Center. So far so good. The fishing in Zelda blows donkey cock though.

I am jealous. I will buy one whenever there are enough of them so they're sitting at the store. I'm too busy to have one now anyway. That's what I keep telling myself.

I happened to go to a couple of Best Buy stores today for some other things I need and was sad to see the empty wii shelves. So I bought the new ipod shuffle to make myself feel better. It's a horrible waste of money but it's so darn cute. :o Now, I just have to figure out what to put on it. It should be fun for my plane ride tomorrow. :)

I would love to know what it's like when they let people in to buy them. Is it orderly? Can the person who's first in line buy one of all the games or do they make everyone choose just a couple?

I'm dying to hear more about the games themselves and what it's like to use the remote.

Damn, that sucks. That's like airlines that sell more tickets than they have seats on a plane, because they expect some people to cancel.

If you complain enough to the manager, you might end up with a free game when you eventually get your wii. Just keep pushing and don't give in, but remember to take it out on the manager and not the person behind the desk.

ok, at least you dig ocarina, but first you diss the beach boys, and now this? you're sliding down Cool Mountain pretty fast, diana.

Hey, I didn't play it I just judged it off the graphics. Which I still say are pretty damn gay. And so are the Beach Boys. :cool:

But Link to the Past was pretty sweet, I'm currently re-playing it. Majora's Mask sucked kinda too. I mean, it was *okay*, but it was no Ocarina.
