Morning: My Gpa helped me reserve a Wii at GameStop because I had to go to school.

It cost $50 to preorder (my hard earned money of course). I was number eleven out of twelve people to preorder! Four people camped out! Sheesh. People nowadays.

After School: I went to GameStop to preorder a few games and sell. I sold Dino Masters for $5…

Which helped me preorder The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess which cost a minimim of $5.

I preordered Vice City Stories which also cost me $5.

And I bought Banjo-Kazooie: Grunty's Revenge used for $10. I was planning to buy it at Amazon (which cost $15) a few weeks back but I didn't have the money at that time.

I was thinking of buying Kameo: Element's of Power, RockStar presents Table Tennis, or Ridge Racer 6 for my Xbox 360. Kameo was number one of the three but they had it at new at $50! Kameo used was about $30 but I don't trust used game discs at GameStop. I thought Kameo was a Platinum Hit…

Total Spent: $65.00 plus tax and whatever.

I had a chance to talk to the guys at the counter. I asked one person if the Wii came with both controllers attatchments and he responded, "yeah it comes with the nunchuck and the Wii-mote." He said Wii-mote! hahahaha. That's cool how the interent world is getting into the real world now I guess…. or is it?

I also asked them if the PS3 preorders were sold out and he said yeah. Heh. So much for all those Wii60 fanboys saying the Playstation 3 won't sell.

I asked another guy about how the PlayStation 3's will be sold online for like $1,500. He said they might go up to $2,500 online. He preordered two PlayStaion 3's and three Wii's. *cough*rich*cough*

He said he might sell his PlayStation 3 but definetly not his Wii's. One's going to him, one to his his girlfriend, and one to a very good friend of his. Look's like Nintendo won over friends and family this year.

My sister even bought a pink DS Lite a few days ago! Nintendo seems to be going along the right path.

And that's all I'm gonna tell you.

Oh look. Time to play BK: Grunty's Revenge. Later.
