I wasn't fond of the Wii cases at first, but these pictures are looking nice.

Okay, so where did you get these? Gamestop told me on the phone today that every game had a street date of the 19th (which isn't true obviously since people have theirs already)

Yup, got them at my Gamestop. No street date as far as I know. Even my wiimotes and nunchucks are supposed to be there tomorrow or Friday!

I picked up a couple of games today as well. The only games that have to wait for the street date are ones from Nintendo and all Nintendo accesories.

[geneshifter]

By the way, I do believe I heard that Nintendo's games have a street date. No Zelda until Nov 19 at the midnight launch according to the manager at this Gamestop.

[geneshifter]

LOL, you beat me to it by a few seconds. Which games did you get?

I picked up Red Steel and Rayman. Now they sit on my coffee table taunting me.
This is the most excited I have been for a video game related release in a long time. Really since I was a kid. It is kind of refreshing.

i feel the same way. Nintendo has the most exciting of the 3 consoles right now.

Rayman does look good and I may get it, too. Can't spend too much more, though :D

Head exploding....have any pics of the steering wheel? (from GT Pro Series)

[jajaja]

Must be torture to have the games and not the console hehe. Cool to see the pics :)

[jajaja]

Oh, btw, i see you mention PS3 in the topic. Did u get any PS3 games too?

[JPeeples]

The Wii casing (especially the big "WII" text over the art) doesn't bug me as much in those shots as it does when I just see see the cover art - the white border caused by the cases makes it look good, and the GT game's cover looks perfect for the Wii casing color scheme.

I'm in DFW, too. Which Best Buy did you hit? I wouldn't mind going ahead and getting the 3 copies of Zelda I need.

[DocRamon]

hurst, next to the northeast mall.

it was around 1pm today. a few other people were looking at wii stuff, but nobody was buying except me. and the guy at the register acted like he'd never seen the stuff before, so... i don't think many people are snapping this stuff up since the console isn't out yet. it'd be a great chance to go grab whatever you can.

Thanks for the tip! I only have 1 reserved at gamestop but I need 2 more for my nieces and nephew's Wii's. I'll head down there first thing in the morning.

Swwweeeet :D

Thanks for getting an old video gamer stoked about this launched! Nintendo Baby :D

Haha, I know what you mean. Saturday night can't come soon enough for me. I still have a class to teach Friday but I just cannot concentrate right now. @_@ x_x
