Never got the hang I guess
I have a feeling you would be really surprised. Can you swing a bat or a golf club? If you can you can play these games. It's really amazing.

And some dude tried to rob some folks that were waitin in line. I think just to wait until after Christmas and they will be cheaper(more than likely) and people wont be acting all crazy...
It's all about passion for me. I have played video games since I've been 5. I've never been into sports or anything like that, so that's why I wait. I often explain it like this; if your favorite sports team of all time was going to a championship game would you sleep outside for tickets? Most of the time they say yes; it's the same kind of thrill.


As for the cost of the systems, the PS3 is $600.00 USD. Thatâ€[emoji]8482[/emoji]s for one system and one controller. Today, I bought a system, a controller, two games, some batteries, and a can of shaving cream for 503.03 USD. Oh, and the Nintendo comes with a game too. The PS3 doesn't.

There's a slight learning curve for people who have played with regular controllers, but I caught on quickly. Wii Sports (the game that comes with the system) is a basic tutorial of how the controllers can be used. You can play bowling, golf, tennis, baseball, and boxing. It's weird being able to swing the controller like a sword.

In all honesty, this is a really fun system so far.
I think we'll be getting one for Christmas.
I haven't bought a Nintendo system since the N64 came out.
I'm more of a classic game fan.

Then this is the system for you! The Wii comes with WiFi where you can go online download classic games, and save them to a memory card. That is where the majority of my excitement is coming from. I can't wait to play Duck Hunt.

Yet another reason why I love Nintendo and why I want a Wii.
It's the perfect system.
