OMGWIIBBQ!

OK, after waiting this long, I don't think I will barbecue it, but still...

Thanks to this site, I got notified the minute Amazon got some more Wiis in stock and had the order placed immediately. Now I just have to wait for it to turn up...

Which games are you intending to get (apart from Wii Sports)?

Now you just need to find a cinema screen to hook it up to!

Indeed, that would be rather nifty!

I've ordered the Zelda game with it (especially as Amazon had just dropped the price by another five quid). I was going to get Wii Play as well (mainly for the extra Wiimote), but alas that had gone out of stock again.

Of the other current releases, Rayman Raving Rabbids and WarioWare look to have an appropriate level of silliness.

Multiple Wiimotes would, obviously, be desirous...

Incidentally, the power consumption stats for the Wii vs XBox vs PS3 are impressive.

That is a striking difference. I'm not surprised that the X360 and PS3 are up there with a PC, but for the Wii to be that much lower is quite an achievement.

NO NO NO! IT'S MINE! MY OWN! MY PRECIOUSSSSSS!

Of course, that would mean that I now have a quest to try and find a copy of Wii Play by the weekend to enable two-player gaming...

Ve shall haff to see, but it would slightly defeat the point of it if I only had one controller :-(

I expect there's a "no barbecue" clause in the Japanese Wii safety manual.

...and if there isn't yet, no doubt there will be in the next revision.
