So yes, I am one of the fortunate who have a Nintendo Wii. And it's a great console, really it is, but the problem is that there just aren't a whole lot of games out there for it that I seem to be too interested in. I own games like Zelda: Twilight Princess, Red Steel, Spiderman Friend or Foe, Sonic and the Secret Rings, Rayman Raving Rabbids, Wii Play. And they're all great games, but the only one I've actually manage to play all the way through is the Spiderman game.

Why? I'm not sure. Like I said, all the games I listed above are fun and great to me (yes, even Red Steel), but I just can never get around to finishing any of them. Which is really my fault in the end. Well, that and the 360 with it's Assassins Creed and The Darkness and so on.

But I think maybe I should change that. For my birthday, I've got $75 worth of Gamestop gift cards. And I plan on using it to put towards two new Wii games. I just don't know which ones yet. Most of the ones on my list are Mario games, such as Super Mario Galaxy, Super Paper Mario, and Mario Party 8. But I also want Rayman Raving Rabbids 2, because those little insane rabbids are just so hilarious.

Maybe I put too much faith into blood and gore, nudity and sex and language and not enough into fun quality. I love cartoons and a video game is just like an interactive cartoon. Maybe I need to dig a little deeper and bring out the kid in me. The kid that owned an original NES and would play duck hunt and Super Mario Brothers all the time.

Ah well, who knows really. Just some thoughts as I go towards the holiday season.
