yeah I queued up last night and was the 13th person to get there hands on one at Gamestation.

Not had a chance to play it yet, damn brother being asleep in the sitting room.

Great time, there were over 100+ there and we even had a female Luigi in very short jeans. What made it even better was that I knew the Girl and spent ages talking to her.

You could do the same with a ps3 controller, or a xbox, which would have made more damage...

Stop saying silly things Demon

Thats my point, if they had the same movment as Nintendo has. it would be just as "dangerous" for tv's and such, as it would be with the Wii, it's a great way to play games, and if the silly americans don't have a good grip on their controller, it's their fault, nothing wrong with wii, being crap etc, thats sounds more like a "fanboy" statment

Zelda !!WOW!!

Wii sports is great lots of fun multiplayer.

Monkey ball, single player is good, but of the 50 mini games I think 4 maybe good.
