We got a Wii.
Well, the family connections paid off this week, and we were able to obtain a Wii. A good use of my christmas money, even though I didn't quite make it last the whole year this year.

I like the fact that when we play, everybody kinda gets involved, at least, that's the case with the couple of games that came with it, Wii Play and

Wii Sports. I know there are other "hard core gamer" type games that are available for it, but I'm not sure those would go over well with Caleb and/or Melissa, so I may wait to try'em out/rent'em etc.

The only thing I wish is that it were slightly more hackable, i.e. if Nintendo would open up the platform a bit more. I'd _love_ to hack up some WiiWare, but I don't think they'll make that available ever, which is kinda sad. Think of the cool things that would flourish if they did!
