Ah yes, Christmas.  My favorite time of year.  The whole season (we're Catholic, so we've made a season of it, which are the twelve days of Christmas).

Apart from stockings (we usually open our stockings on Dec. 6th, St. Nicholas' Day, but we didn't this year; most interesting thing I got in mine was a $10 Best Buy gift certificate), well, all my wrapped presents were Wii-related.

I got the Wii, a stand for it with storage, a 512 MB SD card, a grip thing for the Wiimote that I'm not planning on using, a classic controller, and... an extra Nunchuk?  Apparently when my dad was in line, some lady told him "You've got to get an extra Nunchuk!  It's important!"  so my dad, who didn't know, got an extra Nunchuk, though I've only got the Wiimote and Nunchuk that it came with.  Oh well, least that means that I'll have one around when I get another Wiimote.

No games yet, unfortunately (aside from Wii Sports, of course), but I'm getting Twilight Princess today.

I've got it linked to the Net, and while I haven't done anything with the Virtual Console yet (need some more money...), I've downloaded the free Opera browser, and it's actually quite serviceable.  I've also checked the weather (said it'd rain, didn't know it'd really rain quite THAT much...

Made a couple Miis, one of myself, and one weird guy that I intended to look Japanese.

I'm planning on letting my family members make their own Miis (my mom and sister love the Wii), but if they don't, I'll just make caricatures of them.

I've got to decide which I want:  The GC version of TP, or the Wii version!  My mom wants me to get the Wii version ("Why'd you get the Wii anyway, if you're gonna get the Gamecube version?"), but I'm still not sure.  Who knows.  I'll probably spend twenty minutes at Best Buy deciding.

This has been an update from Belegorm, Merry Christmas all.
