perryowenwright and i camped out for 12 hours at our local target to get one. totally and completely worth the wait. it's AMAZING. we got two and an extra controller for each.

wii sports blows my MIND it's so good, and i picked up the super monkey ball game and of course, zelda.

I would like to thank you and Joe for making our Wii joy possible! You guys officially rock. Plus the stolen-car mission with the extra controllers was awesome.
