Well Christmas has come and gone. I hope everyone had a good Holiday and of course has a great New Years too! I've been having a great Holiday spending time with my Family and Friends while enjoying my time off. Really, the only serious time I get off all year since I don't have to go back to work until Jan 4th!

Anyway, here are all the goodies I picked up for Christmas. Mainly I got a Wii and some accessories and games to go with it. I know some of you are going to ask why I didn't get a PS3 instead so I put some information in the video. Buying a PS3 makes little sense for me and I've been having more fun with the New Super Mario Bros. then I've had playing video games in a long time!

My awesome Girlfriend surprised me with a boxed copy of Maniac Mansion, one of my favorite games of all time! She also got me a copy of Mega Man 2 but it didn't show up in time! She also got me Vol. 2 of the Videogames Hardware Handbook from Retro Gamer. If you're a collector or fan of the retro game consoles you must get yourself these two books. Finally She got me a $100 Gift Card for Best Buy witch I used to buy more games and an extra Wii motion plus controller!

I can't wait to play more New Super Mario Bros! If you're a fan of Super Mario Bros 3 on the NES and Super Mario World on the SNES and you haven't played this yet... do it now! The game is a perfect blend of SMB3, SMW and some new moves and power-ups too. Everything from the gameplay and retro inspired music will put a big smile on any classic Mario fans face! It really is the most "Mario" feeling game I can remember since 64.

Enjoy your Holiday if You still have time off like me and have a great New Years!

  • Hey Jake,

    How long have you been collecting, because you have a lotta hardware I'd kill for, what are your recommendations for finding that stuff?

  • @rejectofsoul24 Been collecting for about 4 years and a lot of this stuff is from local thrift stores, pawn shops and local classified ads.

  • @MN12BIRD Say, Jake, do you have Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess for Wii? It's a great game. I personally think it's one of the best Wii games out there; truly a grand addition to the LoZ series. I don't know about you, but I recommend that you get it as soon as possible if you do not have it. :)

  • @zomgcontraishard Yeah when it came out I rented a Wii and Twilight Princess and got like 4 hours into it.

  • Are you going to hack your wii with any homebrew stuff or emulators?

  • @cjv84us Hmm... I might look into later. It does have an 8GB SDHC card in there now that's not really doing anything!

  • I bought myself a Wii 2 days ago and I love it, I bought SMB Wii and Sonic Colors, the system came with Mariokart Wii, too bad I'm shit at the games I have, but I love SMB Wii.  The plush Koopa looks like Grubby from Teddy Ruxpin.

  • nintendoooo awesommm

  • Have you gotten the new goldeneye game for wii?

  • (its actually 5 dollars you save on the wii remote...:) not 6

  • What A Load Of Crap. Mario & Sonic Suck. Why Not Go Watch LeapFrog's A Tad Of Christmas Cheer? Please?

  • @zomgcontraishard so true...., in twilight princess you can't change the hand. I love the wii but i hate the controller. >:(

  • @pokestory1 Oh, god, yes! It's amazing. You can use both hands, as the Gamecube controller are for both type of hands, The Nintendo Wii is rather flawed that way. But I thought that Twilight Princess could change the right-handed setting? :|

  • @zomgcontraishard have you tried the GameCube version? the Wii version is virtually unplayable because i am left handed, and it is reversed.

  • MN12BIRD has a girlfriend FTW!!!!!

  • @MN12BIRD I played the game for 3 hours before Link was even in his trademark green clothes. It takes so long before the world is completely open for you to explore.
