And No One Cares.

The Nintendo Wii came out today, and it seemed no one even felt like mentioning it at all. The same WalMart that only had 10 PS3s has about 61 Nintendo Wiis. Nintendo thought it to be wiser just to get out as many systems as possible unlike Sony who wanted people to be shot at and hurt to get a console to sell it on E-bay. (P.S. the price dropped dramatically because everyone was doing that) At only $250 dollars, the Wii seems like something the average gamer would want to get. The new Zelda game looks to become a big hit (I want to find someone who has it in this building) and Nintendo seems to finally be getting back in the game. I also read up on Wii points over the weekend because I had no idea what they were. I guess it goes something like this (correct me if I'm wrong):

When you buy an accessory, game etc. from Nintendo, it comes with Wii points. Those points, which you can also purchase for a penny a piece,let you download cool things such as NES, SNES, Sega, and N64 games each with it's own price. I haven't really figured out what the prices of them are, but I know many people who want to play some old school games on the Wii. FINALLY, Nintendo has something cool to offer that the masses want. The price is only $250, so its not really a kick in the wallet either. Way to go, Nintendo. It seems like you're on track to getting some of that lost money from the Gamecube venture.
