  Wiiiii!

  It took three stores, but I found a Wii on Saturday two days ago and I'm so far quite happy with the purchase. I've only got Tiger Woods '08 but I'm hoping to have Metroid and Zelda by Saturday, courtesy of gamefly. I've managed to hold off on getting any virtual console games but I'm guessing it won't take long for that to change (despite owning more than a dozen TG16 games and knowing where to go to get emulated software...). Actraiser is looking pretty sweet right about now.

  On Joining the Club

  An unexpected, unwelcome visitor came knocking at my door two nights ago, known to most as the red lights of death. While my 360 has froze while playing each of the hundred plus games I've sampled, I'd always clung to the notion that since my console wasn't manufactured for launch that I'd escaped this depressing predicament. I've been looking forward to spending the upcoming holiday weekend immersed in the best release to date of this year, Bioshock. Now I'm sitting here drowning my sorrows in booze, wondering if I can find (and afford) a Wii.

  What's an achievement addict to do?
