:(

There is "The Source" (now pretty much the same as Circuit City except that the people who deal with stocking video games are complete morons) that nobody goes to right near my house, but it happens to be just about the worst one out of an already poorly done (see brackets) store.
They miraculously stock Wiis and have a solid game selection (their DS selection has actually not changed whatsoever since launch and I have a strong suspicion they don't even order new copies of anything), except for the single location near me.

BLAST!

Oh well, I'll keep an eye on those shipments. Everyone knows when the first shipment is available, but from that point forth it is a battle of wits.


Happier thoughts:

Regardless though, I gotta say I love having the nunchuk & remote as seperate devices, no having to keep my hands cramped into a claw-like position like the DualShock-style controllers no more.
It's interesting that people are liking that scheme now. Earlier, there was a lot of uncertainty about the 1-handed controller thing.

Do any of you know what they've done about DS->Wii connectivity?
I would have liked to see the DS acting as a controller for consoles like Genesis (possible via a download play thing and Wifi), but there has been nothing mentioned about such possibility (or any Wii->DS stuff) in ages!
I'm hoping they add it with a software update, because it would be a big shame if it didn't happen.
There is a lot of potential here for such a thing, so they'd better not waste it like they did with the GC and GBA. (Where the GBA occasionally did pointless little things in particular games, in such a pitifully useless way that nobody seemed to care enough to spend $25 on another link cable).

What with all the fuss about Zelda, I'm not hearing much about Wii-specific titles (developed from start to finish for the Wii, graphics, gameplay and all!) aside from Wii Sports.
Has anyone tried Rayman Raving Rabbids? It looks pretty nice, it has good reviews, and it appears to be pretty fun. The IGN people say it's hilarious, in fact.
