I'm Mike, I'm here, and I love media. Games, music, movies, doesn't matter, love anything that I can turn on with a switch (that includes my wife). I'm a total electronics whore, love my huge TV, and I own most of the game consoles known to man. I work in a call center, it's not glorious, but it pays well, and they pay for school. I'm attending SLCC and Weber State University, I currently have my associates degree and am working towards my bachelors in Computer Science.

Finding a Wii...
So I went on a Wii hunt Thursday afternoon. Went to 4 Walmarts, 1 Best Buy, 1 Game Crazy, 2 Kmarts. No Wii's. Reports say 3 million of these things have shipped, apparently they haven't sent enough to the Salt Lake City area. I did find 1 copy of Zelda:Twilight Princess out of all those stores, so I decided to buy it, who knows when another one of those will come in. Rumor has it there will be a big shipment coming in on New Years Eve/Day around midnight at Walmart, so I'll be going by Monday morning to see if I can get one. It got me thinking about how dumb the game industry is. In no other industry does a product like this sell out so quickly, they really need to have some sort of government mandate stating that they need to ship a certain quanity of items to a store to help cut down on people being disappointed. There are still so many people out there that want a Wii, but don't want to have to wait in line for 8 hours to 10 days just to get one. Insane.
