The time has come, my friends. Thanks to the generosity of a friend and colleague, and the permission of my wonderful, loving wife, the Wii is finally here! I haven't had so much fun with a gaming system. Granted, since the original NES I haven't owned another system, but have played the PS2 and 360 of friends and family.
Stephanie and I have enjoyed bowling from the included Wii Sports (bowling, tennis, golf, boxing, and baseball). Chris and I have enjoyed approximately three hours of Excite Truck -- a game which wii both agree completely rocks. Needless to say, races can become quite competitive as, unlike similar racing games, the goal is not solely to cross the finish line first, but to earns "stars" by performing stunts, air (flying by jumping), drifts, and even "artistic crashing". He with the most stars is the winner.
