Where did you find it? I am desperately looking....

I totally lucked out, found them on Craigs list and it turned out they were being sold by another person whom works for my school district...so I just had to get them both...

I had looked on ebay, but prices were like 100-200 more. I checked with Circuit City and my store here by me doesn't expect to get anymore in till February..... Best of Luck in finding yours...

You can go to Nintendo's website and sign up to receive e-mails with the new wii-ware releases or just go to this link and browse.....

WiiWare at Nintendo :: Wii

It explains the Wii points and you just download the ones you want to your console.

What I like about the Wii is that it's a great system for all ages and has tons of good wholesome games. We are in our 50's and have friends over for bowling tournaments or whatever and everyone loves it. Our older kids in their 20's come over and play and so do my grandkids. Now don't laugh at me but I've found I bowl higher scores if I bowl sitting down.

So much for exercise.

I'm soooo excited! My brother called me last night and told me that walmart had just got a shipment in of the wii fits!! So of course I had him grab one for me too! lol Infact he grabbed the last 6 of them and is going to sell the rest on Ebay. Insane how much more they are selling for online! And yes, it was definately worth the wait! I love the balance games and the fitness aspect of it as well! Love it! So now that I have the balance board are there any fun games that use it? Someone already mentioned that you can sled with Raving Rabbids TV Party. Any other!?

Congrats on getting a fit! They are so much fun. The only ones I know of are the shaun white snowboarding and All Star cheer squad. I bet there are more though. I am going to ask at my gamestop next time I am in. My Son told me Mario Galaxy is super fun so thats the next game I am getting
