I think the remote is an awesome idea. I didn't like the idea that the DS used a stylus, now I love the fact that it does. I'm sure the remote will take some getting used to, but I'm sure we will enjoy it regardless.

I was in your boat with the DS stylus. I thought it was going to be extremely gimmicky, but it turned out to create some amazing games. I think the DS proves that Nintendo probably knows what they are doing when they make a gamble as big as revolutionizing the way we play games.

I've already got the preorder set for Zelda and Red Steel... and the console comes with Wii Sports, of course. 

The bundle is nice.  I can't say that I've seen a bundle at launch since the SNES.  They always seem to come later and cost more.

I know some of the launch titles were delayed until January 2007, but there's enough good ones to hold over until then.  That and I've got a mile-long list of past games I need to finish.

Then why add a Wii to the long list?

Super late posts FTW!

My Wii is seated confortably next to my Dreamcast and NES.  I beat Red Steel a couple days ago, and am currently working on the VC Legend of Zelda (one of the few I still need to find the original cart).  Anyways, thats one (of two) games in less than two weeks.  I'm usually slow about these things.  At least I've been making progress.

Would anyone be bold enough to say that Wii Sports can truly be beaten.  Even if its only achieving the "*pro" status for each of the five sports.

YES...I will preorder a Wii and PS3 as soon as possible....I didn't think I'd have the money for a 360, so I didn't preorder, but I did have the money and I got one not too far after release .... January 6, 2006.....


well, i said this way back in June....but, i didn't preorder either....i did end up with a Wii on launch day however, without camping....as for the PS3, i would have bought one, but i am saving up for an engagment ring instead....and ive just about hit my goal, but then who knows when ill have enough for the ps3....
