I Got a Wii

Well I finally got my hands on a Nintendo Wii today. I called few stores yesterday and found that Toys R Us was expecting a shipment today so I made my way over to my local store first thing. Lucky for me they had about 35 to 40 in stock and I was one of the first 10 people into the store, so it wasn't a hassle at all. It is nice that the system is only $250 and that it includes Wii Sports, but what I didn't realize until today was that for each extra Wiimote you also have to buy the extra Nunchuck. The two combine are around $60 which is pricey for a game controller, especially when the only game on the Wii Sports disc that uses the Nunchuck is the Boxing game. I did suck it up and buy an extra one of each so that my wife can play too, but if I wanted to buy two more so that I had four total, I would have spent more than the system alone costs. Anyway, I guess I should just be happy I have a Wii finally, and maybe also that I don't have two more people to play with us on a regular basis.
