BORING CHRISTMAS PRESENT LIST ENTRY #1: A Nintendo Wii

Not to have. To sell in the new year on eBay for twice the RRP to people who've fallen for the whole thing and believe that it is good in some way. Right now, poor parents are buying second-hand £179 Wiis for £250 on eBay. It's the most staggeringly odd situation.

The problem will come on Christmas morning. Feigning excitement will be easy thanks to years of practise over jumpers and CDs we didn't even ask for - managing to keep the thing sealed and in its box to protect its resale value will be the hard part.

Nintendo Wii for eBay

Sorry to go ruining the Christmas spirit, but it's all about getting back more in value that you spend on others. Wii's still the number one cash generator. A couple of these to sell is the dream. Any additional games would be a welcome bonus.

The Wii can be had EVERYWHERE in Denmark. No shortage whatsoever here.

Mario Galaxy has got the nicest blue skies I've seen for years. Be ashamed, Zorg.

Considering this site is built on the belief that games should return to the days of blue skies and collecting things, I don't understand the contempt for the Wii. Sega fans and Nintendo fans should combine forces and rise up against the evil Nazi tyrannies of Microsoft and Sony to take back in the industry in the name of jumping on the heads of things and having adventures on magical hills.

Mario is shit. If you play Mario you're shit. Wii is also shit. Dunno why everyone has such a problem working this out.

Anonymous is clearly a dick. I'm 28 years old and spent over 10 hours yesterday playing Mario Galaxay and not only is it good, its down right IMPRESSIVE!

Everyone who says the Wii sucks is a douche. Plain and simple.

I feel sorry for all the kids getting Wiis for Christmas. I haven't played mine since February, and that was half an hour of Sonic and Streets of Rage.

Buy the little nippers a Mega Drive II for Christmas, you'll save at least £280.

Wii sucks. Why not just get your Gamecube out again if you've got that much of a hardon for shit Mario games?

Boo, just because there's been nothing to play on it in PAL regions (except excite truck) for nearly a year. Boo to you. Yay to Super Mario Galaxy. Yay to the Gusty Gardens Galaxy for creating a sonic-esque garden of eden.

Ooh ooh...White Wii Wii!!!

This reminds me of that interview with the makers of South Park where they complain that Family Guy is shit because it's 'just a series of gags'...

"Mario Galaxy has got the nicest blue skies I've seen for years. Be ashamed, Zorg."You obviously haven't seen the skies in Tiger Woods 08 on the PS3 then. Can't play the fecking thing online as it loses the net connection 4 holes in all the time but the sky is nice. That and the big tittied lady golfers.

You post on an article where people are beating on Wiis and then, as if it wasn't some kind of perverted, heinous crime, ADMIT to playing a golf game? Those skies/tits have to be top quality to make up for the fact you've just bought a walk in the park simulator. However, tits you say?

i got 4 wiis, too.

if people wanna spend stupid money on them just to stop their kids knifing them in their sleep (they do things like that nowadays), then i feel it's my duty to provide them with the means to a peaceful night's rest.

that and i don't want four deaths on my conscience, thanks.
