We just got one. I was excited to find out I could download the original Super Mario Bros. and Zelda. That was enough for me to buy the thing.

Looks like it's gonna be fun.

If you are really tryna be a cheepskate use craigslist!

Try getting a PS3 or an Xbox 360 Elite...that will set you back close to 500 bux

A few quick tips on the 3 major game systems out right now

For anyone considering a Game system

go to www.ign.com or www.gamespot.com

If you want a media system to play Blu Rays and the sky is the limit, get a PS3

If you want a system that has more exclusives and first titles, 360.

Xbox 360, because of the new update can now stream movies from netflix, furthermore even if you missed Heroes episodes, you can stream them thru the Xbox 360 in HD for FREE

Wii is more of a kid and family friendly system and as stated earlier, you can download and play older Nintendo titles on the system.

Want to save some money? Buy rechargable batteries for your controllers since they are all wireless now.

If you want to play online with your Xbox, it costs a monthly fee or you can buy a whole year for 50 bucks.


if you have any questions or concerns, and you still can't figure out what you need to get someone for Thursday, drop me a line.

Occasionally slickdeals.net or some other deal websites will have it for cheaper. The husband got his yearly xBox live subscription for around $20 last year off of slickdeals.

I want a Wii but can't justify the cost this year due to the second kid. Maybe next year.
