Nintendo Love

This article is a must read.  It documents the activities of a current blogger's Nintendo Club in 1988.  It is this kind of pure-hearted devotion that video games can spawn.  A bit scary, but mostly endearing.

I got a Wii!

So, I got a Wii today.  I purchased the system with one, and only one, game in mind: Smash Bros Brawl.  Is is weird of me to drop $500 for the almost sole purpose of playing one game?  Maybe, but this game is the culmination of a childhood of Nintendo obsession.  Besides, what else am I going to do with that money?  Go out on nice dinners?  Take trips to exotic places?  Revamp my wardrobe?  Please, none of those come close to the visceral glory of Smash Bros Brawl... I guess.
