    Just a friendly little reminder that the Nintendo Wii comes out TOMORROW. So, who's gonna get and who's gonna wait out till Christmas?

    Unfortunately, I have to wait till Christmas to get my Wii. :( 

    (Mods, if this is spamming, please lock the thread, I'm sorry)

    I'll be picking mine up exactly 12 hours and 50 minutes from now :D 

    Got the call from the store that it's all set to pick up at midnight.

    I'm not sure when I will be picking it up.... I have enough for the Wii system, but not for a game to go with it.

    Anyone know if Wii Zelda can be played normally with the controller?
    I plan on searching for alot of rupees and I might be tired of moving my hand around after whacking that 1,000th blade of grass.
    Still the Wii's going to be a blast and can't wait to pick one up.

    Congrats too everyone that has it preordered and paid for already.

    as soon as it opens may not be good enough. my target said they've been getting tons of calls and expect a line similar to that of the ps3; which sort of surprises me.

    if my cousin was able to just walk into Circuit City during the middle of the day and snag a 60gb PS3, i should be able to snag a Wii (seeing there will be more Wiis than PS3s at their launch)

    seeing i got me a reserved Zelda in Oregon, i might be picking up another game down here (either tony Hawk or Red Steel)
