Official 'I got a Wii' thread

:)

Well im happy that i managed to get one and everything went ok. Me and my friend are just having fun mailing each other n watching that awsome blue light glow!! :D

Also it gave me a reason to turn my routers wireless on which i haven't used before :) so just got all that set up properly today with security and stuff and my Wii is now on Connect24 :)

Oh i can't wait to see what kinda online stuff comes out!

Long Live Nintendo!
 
Got mine on Friday, Zelda, Monkey Ball and wii play.

Wii sports is amazing! Boxing is by the far the best workout I've had in ages no thanks to my girlfriend. Bowling feels natural so does tennis. Baseball sucks...I'm English. Golf I can't do for ****!

Wii Play...hmm good for some two player action! But I find it limited should have games that you can unlock, or are there? Duck hunt clone is by far the best as well as tanks.

Monkey ball you've impressed me again Sega with 50 mini games most of them being fantastic, don't know about you Nintendo people but it's taken time for me to pick up a sega game on a Nintendo machine having been there during the cold war. (Nineties rival Nintendo/Sega) F - Zero on the game cube being the first.

Zelda saved the best till last...you've done me proud Nintendo! This is the true sequal to Orcarina. (Majora was great don't get me wrong) Controls feel natural, it's all good!

Anybody recommend any others they've played?
 
i got mine wed night/ thurs morning. i was 3rd in line and then the shop decided to move the line and then i ended up being the 11th person to get it with zelda a classic controller as well as 2000 points that i can't use yet as i can't connect it.
 
Connect through your Nintendo Wi fi connector, if you got one for your DS...if you got a DS. Err and a PC...ok I'm going...

we got a wii

Our W-M had 9 units this past wed. They didn't had out tickets until 8am that morning. I got there at about 330am and I was the first in line and the only one in line until about 5am. The 9th in line didn't get there until about 630 or 7am, The W-M about 17 miles up the road got about the same # of units but that line started at around 4pm tues afternoon.
I predict that more will be easily available after the 17th - just in time for Christmas.

I feel like I went through hell to get my Wii. On Black Friday (Nov 24), my sisters and I went to Gamestop at 12:30 in the morning. We were the first people in line. I was planning on buying two Wiis: one for me and my sister. About 3:30 some more people show up, get out of their car and sit down on some steps about 8 feet from the door. There was a Circuit City nearby that was opening up at 5 am (gamestop opened at 7). I told my sisters to stay by the front of the door while I headed over there. It was 4 in the morning by this time. Half an hour later, my sisters call me to tell me that the people on the steps are harrasing them, claiming they cut in line. I told my sisters to ignore them and just stay where they were. Long story short (too late), Circuit City didn't have any Wii's. I get back to Gamestop and those jerks are still harrasing my sisters. My sisters are 15 and 17, but these people had to be in their 30's. The store manager shows up around 6 am, and by then there are about 20 people in line. At 6:30 the manager comes out saying that he received calls that we were cutting in line. I explained to him that the people were harrassing us, but he would hear none of it. After "polling" everyone inline about whether we cut, he kicked us out of line because he listened to the loudest jerks next to us. Ironically, my sisters and I took our video camera to record the silliness of our endovour, but the manager also wanted nothing to do with it. Basically my sisters and I got screwed. The ugliness of greed.
I did finally get mine and my sister's Wii last Sunday (Dec 3) at Circuit City with no problems this time. It took long than it should have, but at least I got it. I guess what really bothered me about the episode was how ugly the people were. It was so bad that both my sisters were bawling when we left the store. In retrospect, I should have called the cops, but I didn't expect it to get that bad.
That's my story. I hope everyone else had a much more pleasant experience.
