When I have the time to do so, I will. I'd rather be bashin' zombies right now.

But Daddy, I want one now!

Seriously, the new Zelda looks to be awesome. I've seen E3 video of what they're doing with WarioWare (a highly underrated GC game). The whole Wiimote thing with the nunchucks looks just plain fun. Maybe it will cause me to move out of my chair once in a while. It's not exactly exercise, but it's as close as I'm gonna be getting.

For the first time, the Wii will probably be the only next gen system I will own. Hell, it's the only one I can afford. I think Nintendo (despite the naysayers) are doing the right thing here. If they deliver on the games and make it more than just a gimmick, I believe they will come back strong.

I doubted the ds but bought one when the ds lite was released (cause of new smb) It is the first handheld I have owned since the original gameboy way way back, and I play it more than ANY of the systems hooked to my tv.

I'm actually more excited about the ps2 still having a strong list of games coming out this fall.

Thus far, I haven't been impressed enough by the 360, wii or ps3 to consider buying any of the three.

I agree w/ grind a bit on this one. Even though I'll probably buy a wii next year (after the holiday season), I still sit back and look at all the games I've never finished. The "next gen" graphics I'm seeing are not worth the price tag to me. I remember a day when playing games were about fun and not about having the next best greatest thing.
