I AM TRYING TO BUY ONE ONLINE AND CAN'T!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Sorry for the yelling, but I am pissed off, every reputable store I have gone to is sold out. I know I am "late" in the game, but dammit.... I have the money now, and I want one.

Any advice?

PS. Please don't tell me to drive 25 miles from my house in horrific traffic, I want to order it to be delivered, to my porch.

Yes, it did! I bought K Lego Indiana Jones. He'd already completed Lego Star Wars and he enjoyed them both.

Yikes. Fuck that. I just want the basic stuff and Wii fit.

My boyfriend got me a Wii for my birthday last year and I looove it.  But I win the games so easily [I'm a gamer, I will admit] and I tire easily that I have to go back to my 360 and enjoy the harder ones.

The ones to play is definitely:  Mario & Sonic at the Olympics, Wii Sports, Super Smash Brothers Brawl [my favorite of that system!]

Love the Wii, but I wish I got more of a challenge from it.  I really can't wait for Animal Crossing, I love that damn game.  I pwn it hardcore.

Goodness, am I 5 or what?

April, what games did you get with your Wii?

Depends what you're into. I really loved Zelda and it took me while to finish it, so good value for money.
The party games are fun too, Wii Play and Mario party.

Have any of you guys/gals got Wii fit yet? I'm wondering whether to buy it or not.

What games can you play on it, does it have skiing?

I could see me playing it for a week and then getting bored. Did you bother much with it when you first got it?

Yeh it has skiing, they are all little mini games.

I played it loads when I first got it but I did get bored of it. I can see myself getting back into it though! I am not sure If I would recomend it. I am actually thinking of selling mine.

Not sure if I posted this yet, but I beat my high score of 245 in bowling with a 248! Wooo!

Wii bowling is better after 3 beers FYI.

It's the same in real life too. Beer makes you bowl better.

The Wii is also dangerous, I smacked Alex [my boyfriend] in the head with a wii remote while playing Mario Party 8.
