Nintendo is offering a free Wiimote Wrist Strap upgrade for everyone that bought the Wii before they started to ship them with better straps. You can order your own here. I ordered four a while back and they finally came in last week. You’ll have to see the pictures to believe how stronger the new ones are.

Here are a few pictures of our Miis on the Wii. Samuel has the best face.

“They come in randomly.”

That was the only answer we would get when we called stores like Target and Best Buy to ask when their next shipment of Wiis was coming in. We (Samuel, Roby and I) called Best Buy three times, and each time the guy would say “I don’t know.” I even tried talking in my Indian accent, but the dude hung up on me. Luckily, teh internets told me that Toys R’ Us and Circuit City would be getting a shipment on Sunday so we called them and they actually told us that they had Wiis! In the end, Roby and I decided to camp out in front of Circuit City because Toys R’ Us is a money making whore and only sells $500 “Wii Bundles” that came with crappy games.

To make a long story short: we camped out in Roby weather (freezing cold) for three hours, saw some white guy use his white guy power to make someone that had only been in the line for an hour give up her ticket to someone else who had probably only been in line for an hour, and most importantly, we got our Wii.
