Desperate for a Wii

I have just been sent home from work for being ill. Everyone is scared of catching a cold close to Christmas. Suits me fine. I can go sit in comfort, supping tea and watch some movies.

What I really want though is my Nintendo Wii. I have one on pre-order with PC World but missed out on the launch day allocation. So now, like thousands of others, I am left wondering if I will get mine before Christmas. I have to be honest and say I think it highly unlikely. It is truly frustrating that console manufacturers don't produce enough gear to satisfy demand.

As it happens, this weekend Jon managed to blag someone's unclaimed pre-order from Game in Wellingborough on Sunday. We played all the Wii Sports and I can tell you now that the Nintendo Wii is the best console ever. It may not have the HD graphics of the Xbox and PS3, but it makes up for it in sheer fun and enjoyability. It's the end of chubby arse, lazy gaming. We are in the Wii-zone now.
