Play Internet Games On Your Wii

If you've got a Nintendo Wii and the Internet Channel on there than you have to head on over to www.wiicade.com to play some free little flash games. I have to admit, for the most part these are small simple games but I have definitely wasted some serious time here! They just added a new game called Deal or no Deal...yes it's the game show. I keep taking the deal at around the 200 thousand dollar offer. I just can't seem to wrap my head around risking all that money even though it's just for fun. Call me crazy.

Check it out. The best things in life are always Frii.

Have Wii Gone Overboard?


Get a load of this stash seen at CES 2008. I guess there's going to be no shortage of Wii Accessories coming to a living room near you! That's of course, if we can actually get our hands on them in the stores. My guess is that there will be a shortage causing good people to pay unruly amounts of money on Ebay or the black market.


I'm glad I have two guns already...mind you...I am looking for a few more...but I can wait...for awhile anyway. Check out Cnet's article.

IGN: Best Of 2007

IGN.com is a website I visit often. I read reviews for games I would like to purchase for our Nintendo Wii. It's better than shelling out 60 bucks for a dud. I have yet to purchase a game that got a good review on their site and been disappointed.



Check out their "Best of 2007" in all kinds of categories which range from games, movies, gear and even comics. This is definitely worth a look!

DDR: The Best Medicine


We played Dance Dance Revolution on the Wii last night. We were both laughing so hard we had tears rolling down our faces! This game provides such a humbling experience for those of us that are not totally coordinated or in a great dance mode. I was enjoying myself watching Red burn up the dance floor to the song Disco Inferno. She looked like she had been drinking all night...her steps so clumsy. It totally made me laugh and then she started laughing and well...I'm surprised she made it through the song.


This game is a blast to play and you actually work up a bit of a sweat. Not bad for a video game! We only have one dance pad right now but you can hook up to four so you and your friends can battle it out together. Now that would be a great party!

Now That's Alot Of Wii's!


When the Amazon.com website had Nintendo Wii's in stock this holiday season they sold at an astonishing rate of 17 units per second!!! That's just insane. Well over a year since it's launch the Nintendo Wii is still hard to come by. Once a store gets a shipment in they are usually snatched up within hours by a few lucky retailers. When we got ours we carted it all over the place to show friends and family. Every last person we displayed this little marvel to is now a proud owner of one also! I think Red and I should have purchased Wii stocks when it first came out.

Nintendo Wii Light Sword


Ok, this made me do a double take tonight. I was just flipping through the Zellers flyer and came across what's basically a Star Wars Lightsaber! I had to check it out online of course and sure enough there it was in all it's glory. Although it's definitely got a "coolness" factor I don't think I'll be investing in one anytime soon. Zellers is asking $34.99 not including the Wii remote or the multitude of batteries required to power up the LED. Nah, I'll wait until they launch a Star Wars game that will actually work well with this little gizmo.


May the force be with you.
