Wiiiiiiiii...

A predictable heading but I thought I'd mention that I finally got my hands on a new Nintendo Wii console! It's been a bit of a nightmare buying one in the UK because it's sold out everywhere, including the online stores; as soon as any new stock arrives it's sold within hours if not minutes! In the end I ordered one through Gamestation's online store and using the Wii Pre-Order website; I still have my Comet pre-order and the damned discounted vouchers I planned to use... :S

On the subject of playing the machine itself, it's a lot of fun although there are far too many short and simple games available at the moment. There aren't many titles that you can sink your teeth into aside from The Legend of Zelda (7+ hours in at the moment). Scarily the mushroom in particular appears find the boxing game in Wii Sports very satisfying...
