Wii

I got a Nintendo Wii on Sunday.  I wasn’t planning on getting one anymore, but I spotted one at Target so I got it.  I also bought Super Smash Bros. Brawl, and got Super Mario Kart for half off at Circuit City.

Jamie doesn’t like these two games that much, but she really loves playing Wii Tennis.  Last night I also played Mario Kart against my sister, her husband, and her friend, through the Internet.  Pretty amazing to see how far video game tech has progressed.

My only complain so far has to do with the Nintendo WFC (Internet gaming).  Why the heck do they have to make it so tedious to simply play with another person.  To play against my sister, not only did I have to provide her with a numeric id (around 10-12 digits), but she had to provide me with hers, too.  And to make it just a little bit more difficult, we had to do this for each different game we played online.  There’s a way to add her to my contact list so I can send her messages, but I don’t believe you can use this ID to find each other in each of the games.
