When you're a kid and you want to Wii...
Sunday morning, still disappointed my part time job made me go in, I got up and drove over to the EBGames I had gotten my preorder at. After waiting in line for about an hour they informed the crowd that they had sold all the non-preorder units. The crowd thinned out and just a few of us were left. Some people ended up camping the evening before. I imagine most of those got what they wanted. I ended up talking to this guy who had bought a PS3 and he was discussing about what he’s enjoyed about the console so far. Apparently some people were jumping stores (mind you this is still around 9:20am) and most of them had run out. After aquiring my huge bag of Wii stuff I got home, unpacked and plugged it in, created a Mii with my nephew and had to leave to work. 7 aggravating hours later I went back home and tried this out for the first time. Played Wii sports most of the night. I glanced at Zelda and Red Steel but I’m keeping those for sometime this week.
The whole wireless thing is odd, but I enjoy it. I setup the Wii on my network and got DK off the Wii Store. I still can’t find Opera though.
Other than that, friday night James Bond (amazing), saturday day off, anime con... decent.
