A Wii update

[strdup]

Jen and I are currently taking turns leapfrogging each other's progress in Zelda: Twilight Princess. She got to the wolf part first, but I am currently in the lead :)

Good things about the wii:

1. quiet and small
2. the controllers are cool
3. gamecube compatibility
4. guitar hero 3 is coming soon
5. it got Jen into games, so it definitely has a broader appeal

Oh, I'm glad to see you enthused about console gaming! The lack of a real internet installment is kind of annoying (especially when Xbox Live is sooo nice). If you look into chipping it, there is a pretty decent scene- I wonder if someone isn't already getting Linux up ons. I'm in the middle of chipping mine- tiiiny soldering points. I am with you on the GH3 action- can't wait for that, or the new Smash Bros. Check out Super Paper Mario and RE4 (if you haven't played its other iterations before).

A sassy buy pretty spot-on video of the top ten GCN games.

I have 4 or 5 GameCube games I don't really play anymore- I could ship them up.

Damn, I need to call you for real.
