Happy Days

I wa able to get a Wii today.  I told my wife I was going to go Wii hunting.  I figured this was the last week day of my Christmas vacation, and I should give it a shot.  I went to Target #1, and got a nunchuck, target #2 had Wii remotes, and the gamestop I went to said they were expecting about three in on a truck today.  I returned just in time to be the third in line.  As I was buying mine, the last the store had, at least two people came in and said that an employee promised him that the system would be held for them today.  I can't believe the hassle people (myself included) are going through to get these damn things. 

But I was lucky and now I'm in the process of updating and setting it up.  I can't wait to throw Zelda in and see how it plays.  I like the Wii-mote so far in the set up process, it feels pretty intuitive. 

To hell with my chores I'm playing with my Wii today. 

As an aside, not a single person who was buying the Wii today was under the age of 25.  My impression is that they were not for the kiddies either.  Very interesting.
