Mine is on it's way for tomorrow I guess. Awesome, now I don't have to keep hooking up my laptop to my TV and I can watch tons of stuff.

Is this so Wiis can stream Netflix like the 360 and PS3?

Not all of us are cool enough to have Xboxes or PS3's.  :(

Us simple Wii folk simply wait for our platform to have enough games besides Tiger Woods Golf and Mario titles to be awesome. Then we upgrade to the next Nintendo thing.

I think it might be time for me to finally break down and get one of the other platforms though. Although I don't do that much gaming anymore, except for racing sims.

I didn't think the Wii processor could even handle movies.  I used to like the Wii a lot, but got tired of every game having outdated graphics and needing me to wave my hands to do every single task.  The new Mario game rocks though.

so I've heard. I bought it for my wife a couple weeks ago and she really likes it.

i haven't tried it yet. I was never all that good at 2-D, left-to-right style games.  Actually, I'm not very good at 3-D first person games either, come to think of it.

My wife isn't too into video games but she really likes it as well.  Its a lot of fun playing together and I think would be a blast if we were able to get four people playing at once.
