Hmmm.

I have capital bonds to spend and was going to spend them in HMV in Glasgow this weekend (visiting my niece). I was going to buy a hard drive and gold live account for the 360 but if they have any Wiis left, I may be tempted - I quite fancy one.

haha!
in truth neither are for me
i was merely a pawn so the bf could get his hands on a 2nd machine - i just got to go along for the wait! (only one allowed per person y'see)
all that means is that i can play his, but just not have the cost involved with owning my own
(oh and i think his idea is that number 2 will help pay for number 1...)

Doesn't look like Paul's is being delivered until after the weekend.

Ever seen a grown man sulk?

Mine is being delivered today but I won't be in, so I guess they'll take it away again.

Edit: Aw, look at his excited chubby face! http://www.collegehumor.com/video:1726714

I especially like the original Super Mario Bros. end of level music as he holds it aloft.

Bah, kinda wish I was getting one now, I love the rush of getting a new console. I'll wait until nearer Easter though when there will be more games out and I may be able to afford one by then.

Nice one
I've somehow never pre-ordered a console or got one on launch day, feels like something I should do one day Then again I really couldn't afford it this year after buying the 360.

right, now you all have got them and had a play...I have a question.
does it play like on the TV adverts? I know next to nothing about this console
I mean, is the square handheld controller thing that good? What about accuracy?

I think I want one, if it IS that good. guess it can wait till after christmas
