Miis in my Wii

If you haven't guessed from my Top Ten post, my replacement Nintendo Wii arrived this week, exactly on time just like Nintendo promised. I'm so glad that Nintendo customer service was efficient and took care of me, especially after I camped out for them! My new Wii is working great, and I'm really impressed with it! The whole concept of the Mii (little cartoon people you can create that represent yourself in the games) was strange to me when I read about it, but it quickly becomes one of the coolest features, especially since you can share your Miis with your friends. So, besides my WEBmikey Mii, I have my pals Chris and Barron, plus their families, wandering around in my Wii, which means when I play baseball, they are on my team, or when I play bowling, they are sitting in the background chatting and cheering for me. It's so amazing! (I also made Miis of Sayumi and Reina from Morning Musume, so they show up at the bowling alley sometimes, too.) The Wiimote continues to amaze me, especially after experiencing all the different ways it can be used while playing WarioWare Smooth Moves. I have a feeling the Wii is definitely going to force me to manage my time better!

My Wii wasn't the only good news this week! After years of trips to Reno, Vegas, and their local casino, my parents finally scored a big win! Every time they go to Riverwind Casino, they enter a daily drawing that increases over time, since you have to be present to win. This week, they picked Dad's name, so he won a significant four-figure cash prize! Mom and Dad were so excited, and I'm excited for them!
