climhazzard85: Your SNES looks nothing like mine! Sorry to sound a bit thick, but is that an American one then?

I've only just noticed, I got Wii Sports in a proper dvd box, when I've seen some pictures of the same game, just not in a proper box.

There are tons of threads around here, a lot of people had pre orders, a good few (including myself) went out launch day, and some are just plain ol' lucky ;)

The only source you'll ever need: http://www.amazon.com/gp/discussion...8&cdForum=Fx1D5FVR0TDJZT9&cdAnchor=B0009VXBAQ

Believe me... that forum will help you so much. Keep an eye on the sighting threads. The latest word is this Sunday is another campout day, so that may be your last best chance before the holidays. Depending on your area, you may want to arrive at least a few hours early. I waited in line for five hours (well worth it, trust me) and was number 15 out of 30 (supposedly).

Best of luck to you! :)

Just wondering, is there any delay between the moment you do the moves with the Wiimote and the moment when the character in the game does the move you did?

I picked up a Wii on Tuesday and absolutely love it -- so much so, that it actually motivated me spend the weekend finishing up the "home theater" project I've been working on for the past 6 months or so. There's still a couple things left to do -- a couple more pieces of A/V equipment coming in this week, and some movie posters will be put up on the blank white wall, but... here's my new Wii setup. :) (I'll be putting the Wii in the equipment cabinet as soon as my wireless sensor bar comes in -- the cord on the normal one is too short.)

i really hope that screen wont break if the remote goes flying.

It's a front-projection system -- the "screen" is painted on the wall and I added a border, so it only cost $25 or so.

I did have a friend whack the projector the first time he played Tennis on Wii Sports :eek: but luckily it didn't get damaged. Now me make sure to play a bit closer to the screen -- making sure the projector isn't directly overhead ;)
