good evening y'all! so even though i had a bunch of work to deal with i did manage to get in a bit of game time with my new nintendo wii! i've literally been trying for weeks to get my hands on one...someone needs to step up the production of this amazing game system - they're not easy to come by! early this morning i lined up outside electronics boutique over on sunset & vine (near the sunday farmers' market on ivar) i was second in line and quickly others were behind me - i'm guessing the store only had about 15 systems to sell and were gone in a flash! i got really lucky to have snagged one! (i wasn't going to pay more than the $250 retail price...some were selling for double that over on ebay!)
i've always been a huge nintendo geek since the very first NES and i've had 'em all the way up to the 'gamecube' - plus there's good news for cubers - the wii is backwards compatible so you can play all of your old GC games and ditch the cube! of course i was super curious about how the 'remote' wireless controllers would handle themselves and i'll tell you it's like freakin' magic - so seamless & very impressive! the system came with wii sports where you can play tennis, bowl, box, and golf! the tennis is
so damn fun and the remote as a racquet is kick-ass - plus i really
enjoyed the boxing - popbytes actually worked up a sweat!
i also picked up the lastest legend of zelda installment (twilight princess) and i know i'll be spending lots of hours with mr. link running around hyrule & dungeons! the one thing i'm bummed about is the wii 'mario' game (super mario galaxy) won't be hitting stores until november! he's my favorite game character - mario rocks! i'm sure sony's new PS3 is great as well but the with a decent price tag mixed w/ the way fun controllers - nintendo is going to do quite well with their new wii! popbytes over & out for now...xxoo!
I keep telling myself I'm NOT going there and then you have to bring up Zelda.... I refused to stand in line or sleep in line (rather). I can do w/o this, right? I hate you.
