Originally I was planning on having a full write-up of getting my Nintendo Wii today. But after taking all the photos and setting it up… I couldn’t stop playing it. Once it was hooked up, it was all about the Wii. Didn’t even watch the new episodes of Ramsay’s Kitchen Nightmares or Dom Joly’s Happy Hour. It really is just that damn good folks!

I’m hooked on Wii Sports Baseball, and Wii Sports Golf is great but really gets me excited about what Tiger Woods will be like on the system. So far, there is no Opera Web Channel, News or Weather Channels up and the Wii Store has a limited amount of games released. The nifty thing is that there is a power button on the remote, so I don’t have to wander over and turn the thing on every time I want to play or finish up.

Now your probably saying “Hey Mike”, and I’m saying “Hey whoever you are”. Then you’d say “Hey Mike, when are you going post your damn report on the system”. I’d reply “No need to be so rude fucko”. The full report/unboxing/various pictures will be up tomorrow night when I have some time to sit down and write properly. Unless I play the Wii all night, in which case you’d get nothing…

To tide you over, here is a picture of the Wii box sitting on my bed (note the cool bedspread). Interestedly enough, while I was taking the pictures my sister wandered in asking why it wasn’t set up yet. I explained that I was taking photos of it. She asked me why and I said it was for my blog, to which she ripped into me about for having a blog. Then I told her it was on MySpace. Her reaction - gold.

Full report tomorrow.
