It is rather unusual for me to look forward to a weekend of nothingness. This weekend however I am rather looking forward to not having much going on. Instead of a normal weekend of balancing coaching three youth soccer teams with maintaining a relationship and enjoying time with friends and family, this weekend will be spent mostly relaxing.

Don't get me wrong there is plenty to do. Family dinner this evening, two games to coach, a KU basketball game, and I will probably check out Coraline in 3D as I have been excited to see that one for some time now.

For me that is a light weekend. That means that I should have several hours devoted to catching up with a few titles that need some attention. I recently added three games to my Wii collection. One is the before mentioned Coraline – the Game, Shaun White Snowboarding – the Target exclusive, and Rayman Raving Rabbid's TV Party.

Coraline – I bought under circumstances that I rarely do – after reading a negative review. Pretty much every thing I read is correct, yet I continue to play it. Mostly to get a sneak peak of the storyline I think. Probably not one of my finer purchases, but every once in a while it happens.

Shaun White and Rayman TV Party should be solid additions and utilize the Balance Board. If you read my last post you know that I am worried of the future of the Balance Board. My hope is these titles ease some of my concerns.

Regardless for the first time in a long time I should be able to put some time in on the old video game system. Probably a lot of time on the Wii, and knowing my personality a little time on the NES, or SNES as well. Hope everyone else has a relaxing weekend and can get a little video game time in.
