A couple of weeks ago, we bought the highly-rated Wii console from Nintendo. I was surprised to find it in stock at our local GameStop store. For anyone who doesn’t know, the Wii console have been selling out consistently at Target and Walmart. It is almost impossible to buy the Wii console online without paying a premium price.
What we think
Hands down, it is the most enjoyable, affordable gaming console we have ever owned. Even when you are not playing, you’re having fun watching people swing that remote around. Both Sammy and Sophie want their own remotes.
Sammy’s favorite games are boxing (WiiSports) and Charge! (WiiPlay). He still needs to improve his hand-eye coordination, but it’s getting better. He’ll be knocking out his old man in no time.
I just preordered Mario Party 8. It is said to be the “Must Have” for the Wii. Hopefully it lives up to the hype when it is released at the end of this month. We only have two games now but we’re on the lookout for more family friendly games.
Got any Mii’s?
We have a few celebrity Mii’s that we’ve been trading with our Wii buddies.
Here’s what we have so far:
- Hiro from Heroes
- Jack Black
- Paris
- WackoJacko (MJ)
Here’s our Wii number: 0285 3714 9875 3987. If you have a Wii and want us to add you, post your number in the comments below.
