Yeah I love my PS2 play it a ton in the winter..i dont go out much i used t snowboard alittle but i get sick so much in the winter, that video games are one of the few things i can do..

Yea, I got it awhile back and have to drop the rest of the cash on it this Friday which won't be too fun ... but making about 110% profit on it will be.
I'd really love to play it, but I'm waiting until like April or whatever - I mean the games I want to play now will still be new to me then (and cheaper ... well not the games, the system that is).
* I have to drop players I found out to accept it, I'll get to it later this afternoon whilst at work.

yeah MOD chips usually change that but of course the mod chip wont be out for a while and even then the 1st gen mod chips usually suck....
what games are the people getting one getting?

Here's a pretty good article that just came out on the WII.
Looks like too much work to play games to be honest, haha.

i got to play one last weekend, i had to let the store people hold my driver's license. i played the sports games. it's pretty intuitive, and def. a lot different than anything i've ever played before. go for it if you got the scratch. i'm holding out, as i just picked up gears of war for 360 and man is that game fucking cool.

I'll be inline for one, bright and early.
My wife and I always throw a big New Years party and I think some drunk Wii action would be a fun mix to the activities.

some WII hockey would be cool, youd have like different motions for like slap shots and wrist shots and you could fake shots that would be pretty rad.
those mario tennis games are always great it be cool it that came out soon.

I've been in meetings (and still am) the past few hours, so that's why I haven't been posting as much, haha.
Is there any possiblity of the WII being sold out?

i heard there gonna be alot like 5 million and i think which i might be wrong that the PS3 and 360 only shipped a million so yes if those numbers are correct...but no if im wrong...i dont know if im gonna line up on sunday i'll proll stroll in the early afternoon and see what i can do i live in a relatively smaller town so it might work...

4 million wii at launch world-wide, i think 1 million are ear marked for the us.
ps3 is launching with about 400,000 units supposedly.

It will still be hard to get one, no doubt. But I am betting on getting one at Walmart since they have such buying power and they open earlier than everyone else buy an hour or two on Sundays.
I better get mine, because going into a Walmart for no reason would make me feel very dirty...
*must scrub clean... stench of failure won't come off!

I don't think I'd shop at Wal-Mart even if it was the last place on earth.
