Wow, when I first saw the ad and saw it said "on select video game software" I assumed it was going to be a list of really old games or games no one wants to play (or both), but they have new, top of the line games on the list including the recent releases Bioshock and Metroid Prime 3

Ooh . . . don't tell Chad that.  That's the only thing that has held him back.  He's gonna be there first thing in the morning to get himself a Wii.

Every year.


And every year it is right when I have no darn money to make use of it. :(


You'd think that after years of this promo, I would have started saving for it, but no... By this time next year I will have forgotten all over again, and will be just as broke RIGHT when the darn thing runs again.

Dammit I wish that deal worked for preorders.  I can't think of 3 Wii games I want right now LOL.

Heh.  I used that money to buy a Tempest.  Better use of the funds.

hey . . . I didn't know they had released a Big Brain game for Wii.  I've never had a DS, but those Brain games look really cool.  Is the Wii version any good?

I played big brain academy for the first time yesterday. I started around 6:00 pm and stopped playing at midnight. That game is highly addictive, especially with a second player. I definitely recommend it.

I'd love to get in on this, and I've never played MP3 or Paper Mario, and surely I could find some other game that would be worthwhile (maybe the Brain one), but I can't do it.  I'm totally poor these days and it would be one thing if I had any time, but I haven't played a videogame in months.  It's tragic.  If I could even find four or five hours to play on the weekends . . . but generally I don't have this time, and if I do I've got to give it to my neglected wife and daughter.

I miss being a gamer . . .  :'(

Sell your Wii and get a DS so you can play between breaks in classes. ;D

He should let his neglected wife play with his Wii for him.
