Gotta try this!

If only I knew someone with a Wii…

I finally succumbed and got Guitar Hero yesterday.

 I was worried that it would cut into Dylan’s (already tiny) desire to practice his real guitar. But when his friend came over, and they only had one Guitar Hero Les Paul Controller, Dylan graciously let his friend have it and grabbed his real guitar. So his repertoire now includes Paint It Black and School’s Out!.

Oh. And Guitar Hero is the first WII game that I have actually enjoyed playing…at least until Rock Band comes out.

And it was kinda cool seeing my son go down to Georgia to get himself a shining fiddle made of gold.

Aaron is complaining that Nintendo has renamed their forthcoming Revolution to Wii (pronouced “we”). All my game playing buddies are bewailing the same thing.

I asked my son and all his 5th grade buddies and they said :

• “weeeee!”
• “Coool!”
• “Cowabunga”
• “Can we get one the first day it comes out ?”

Guess which market Nintendo is selling to ?

I keep telling Dylan that as soon as he gets to middle school, he’ll start growing hair under his arms, liking girls and wanting an XBox 360.
