Me? I'm going for Super Monkey Ball! (You can't beat a bitta monkey ball!) and maybe some Red Steel & Wii Play action! It's gonna be great (And probabily bloody tiring for me arms! Must... play... one more... level! Arm... about to... snap!)

I really want one, but I was too late to get one preordered for launch, plsu I have to pay for a new 360, Gargh!
I am considering buying one though, just need to see some more games I'd want to play first, that could draw me away from the Evil Xbox ^_^

I've not got a pre-order on mine, unfortunately. Or any money. Maybe after christmas.
Priorities for me at the moment are:
1. Christmas
2. New HDTV
3. Maybe a Wii.
So on the 8th of december, I'll just have to make do with the PSU update. Oh well. =]
Anyone know the deal with WiiConnect?

As far as i know WiiConnect is basically an online service where you can play against friends, view certain info through WiiChannels (Such as news and weather and stuff - Which will never be used by anyone nor updated by Nintendo Europe lol), recieve updates for the console and access the Virtual Console downloads, etc.!

I want to get one. I'll probably go for Red Steel, that sounds pretty damned awesome in my book.

I really don't have any interest in the new systems... I find the 360 terrible, the PS3's a waste of money and will cause Sony another financial drop... and the Revolution (I hate the real name so much that I never say it), is not only retarded, but it botched up everything I could've wanted in a new system. The only good thing I can say about it is Nintendo did a MUCH better job marketing the thing than its competitors, and I've fairly certain the console is as sturdy as any other Nintendo product... Nintendo's a company you can feel confident about buying first edition products from because they get it right the first time. If anything they release pointless remakes of their devices just to add another feature or two. (GBA, GBA SP, GBA Micro)
So yeah... COMPLETELY not interested in the future of gaming so far.

I'm not really planning to get a Wii because:
1. It's not out in the Philippines.
and
2. Even if it were, I'm still broke.
Still, I could ask my aunt in America to buy it for me as a Christmas gift...hehehe.

Either way, I'm not getting one anytime soon.

Subscription based? If it's free, I might get a Wii. Just because in the long run it'll be cheaper than buying games for my Snes. *not interested in new games at all*
