    The novelty factor is exactly why Santa has got me a Wii for Christmas. I am fed up of First Person Shooters and Racing games. So the Wii will be ace :)

    The Wii is definitely the best choice for a family to play together.

    (Not for those wanting to sit alone in a dark room at 3am playing shooting 'games' .)
    Everything will be alright in the end so, if it’s not yet alright, it means it’s not yet the end
