Wiikend Wrap Up January 29th - February 4th

Saturday, February 3rd, 2007

Wow what a week I kind of went post crazy this week, now how can that be a bad thing. Anyway I’m having another Wii party this weekend; I just seem to be a party magnet lately. I think it’s due to the fact that Wiis are still scarce in the GTA (Greater Toronto Area) and my friends are living vicariously through me. Not that I’m complaining the Wii seems to be the best thing to happen to my social life since I was able to go out to bars. I know I promised some pictures from the last party but that didn’t work so I’ll try and get some goodness from this one, anyway on to the wrap up.

Wiikend Wrap Up January 22nd-28th

Saturday, January 27th, 2007

Another crazy week at Wii Rally has come and gone. A disappointing VC Monday, a Nintendo Six flags partnership and a controversial digg story were all party of this week’s action on Wii Rally.

Quite a few users on digg figured that I should have mentioned that Mario Kart 64 was available only in Europe in my headline but I think that would have made for a ridiculously long headline. Apparently people on digg only read the first six words of a story and then judge it. Meah what ever floats your boat diggers.

Anyway here are the stories for this week.

Monday
Wii Wish

Tuesday
Virtual Console Letdown
Fun meets Fun at Six Flags

Wednesday

Thursday

My mission this weekend to finally finish Zelda: Twilight Princess I think I have two dungeons to go, than I get to go back and try and 100% this epic adventure. How far have you gotten? If you’re unsure you can check out the Twilight Princess Progress Calculator. I’m about 42% complete.

Wiikend Wrap Up January 15th - 21st

Sunday, January 21st, 2007

It’s time again for the Wii Rally Wiikend Wrap Up. Some crazy news this week, we got some follow up information in the Wii Contest Fatality case…… a sad sad state of affairs. BB from 1pStart has posted the actual audio from the “Morning Raveâ€? radio show on 107.9 ‘the end”. Head on over and take a listen, it may sway your opinion or reinforce it.

It’s kind of a big weekend for Wii Rally. I am hosting my first “Wii Party” to mark the release for the latest party game “Wario Ware: Smooth Moves” A couple of my friends are coming by to try it out and see if the game is more fun in a large group. Look for all the details on the “Wii Party” including pictures coming next week.
