I didnt get any but the house I was at on Xmas got a Wii and they were playing Wii sports all afternoon and I was watching it and it was the dumbest thing Ive seen. I kept telling them Wii was for trendy people and I refuse to play games that dont use a traditional controller. I dont think they got what I was saying but I think someone did. Its a shame when 4 and 5 year olds wants Wiis I mean I'm an old school gamer and its a shame to see what Nintendo has turned into. Even the good ole NES wasnt as kiddie friendly as the Wii. I would have kicked you out of my house. The system has many great games, and there is nothing wrong with it. There is soemthing wrong with a person who can watch other people, supposedly people they care about, have fun, and then bitch and moan and ruin it for everyone.

Nintendo is just trying to corner the market by appealling to all consumers rather than a select few. I don't see anything wrong with trying to make money. Yeah I know but I like games where there's a point to them, you know like try to beat them. These games the only point to them was to get exercise.

many Wii games do. Wii sports was just a free game who's purpose was mainly to get people aquainted with the hardware.

Rather light on the game front this year but I did get Dragon Quest 4 and the new Castlevania for ds, and Mortal Kombat vs. DC Universe...
also 50 bucks that will probably go towards video games :-p

I will go on record and say Wii Sports Baseball is the only thing to have ever made me enjoy the sport of baseball.
Except Baseball Stars 2 which is also relatively fun.

OH! OH!
Tomorrow I'm going to my local GameStop and buying several PSP games with my money. Right now I have $270 on me. However, not all of that is going to PSP games for myself. I'm going to see how much money my youngest sister has as a result of the holidays, and I'll foot the remaining bill to buy her either a black or silver Ratchet & Clank: Size Matters bundle. And yes, there is a difference. Aside from the obvious one of the systems being different colors, the black PSP comes with a voucher for Everyday Shooter, while the silver comes with a voucher for Echochrome. Both bundles come with a UMD copy of National Treasure 2, a 1GB memory stick, charger, battery, and of course a copy of Ratchet & Clank: Size Matters.
I promised my sister I'd get her a PSP at some point, and the Ratchet & Clank series is one of her most favorite platform series.
As for me, not only will I get some games, but some needed items, such as a carrying case and a secondary memory stick. Thinking of the 2GB memory stick as it is only $20.
