hah! The shots keep comin'! Right in the mouth, even!! I don't think this is legit, tho. Seems... stupid for a company that's around to make money won't accept money for things. (But, just in case, I best get a stack o' stuff ready!) 'kay. I just called GameStop. The conversation went as such: [me:] Hi, I just wanted to check on something. I had heard on the internet that GameStop is going to start taking Wii preorders tomorrow. Is that true? [guy:] That is very not true. [me:] A'ight, thanks.

Yeah, EB up hur has indicated that they'll not be taking pre-orders for the Wii or the P$3 "after the whole 360 mess". Why line up? Get the Wii games you want, and play the PS2/DS/GCN ones you have but haven't cracked open yet until the rush dies off. Besides, my 360 buddy says he wishes he'd have waited a bit now that the new 360s sound less like a blackhawk helicopter now that they have a different processer that runs cooler.

Yeah, I know. Just sayin'. I think I'll end up chilling on a Wii 'till after they come out with a bunch of system colors.
I'm annoyed that I can't preorder a PS3, though. Not cuz I want one, but, cuz I want to be able to fill my coffers and perhaps buy that harem I've always wanted.

I'm with Jon on this one - I want a Wii. Backwards compatability and packaged in Wii Sports make it a sexy, sexy offer, plus just twenty bucks to get the throwback controller? Yeah, boy. Plus, I can't wait to see what sorts of stuff comes up on the Virtual Console. ^_____________^

*Basks in glory*Good day today. Acquired one piece of interesting information while acquiring something else. Geese just got himself a Black DS ^_______________^ While at that gamestop and engaged in my purchase of extreme power fun, i inquired as to the status of Wii preorders. The friendly clerk told me that its very possible they will start NEXT WEEK. When i looked perplexed and told him i thought Wii preorders weren't happening, he told me that they will be happening!

My girlfriend bought a light blue special edition Nintendo DS - the old school one. Then the aforementioned mortal combat engaged when the Gamestop monkey attempted to sell us a DS Lite, at $30 more.
He refused to accept the adamant reason why she wanted THAT DS: "It kinda looks like Al, from Fullmetal Alchemist."
Goddamn, I love my girlfriend.

I have a really nice ceramic white one! I'd seriously shank a muthafucka for a pink one, and I'd lock myself in a prison shower with nothing but a mop, a bucket of sand, and SLEEPY GOOSE for an ORANGE DS Lite! Black and Pink? Pffffttt. Get some REAL COLOURS! Like ORANGE, or BURNT UMBER!

Oh. Interesting bit about Twilight Princess... Apparently, the game is going to be reversed on the Wii. As in... well... read.
So, it's really gonna be like a different game. Kinda neat.
