It definitely has a high learning curve but once you master it, you can be dead on accurate. I love them.

do you hold your arm out or do you hold it close to you. holding it close seems more comfortable but less accurate.

What a fun system!

My husband's coworker purchased one, and I spent Thanksgiving with four software engineers trying to pass Rayman. We played from 3pm until 2am and beat the entire game in one (very long) sitting.

I hope my husband will get me one of my own for Christmas! (honey, if you're reading this - hint, hint )

I hold it close and use the zoom feature.

If I feel like going commando, I hold it in a cross formation. nunchuck on the left, wiimote on the right .. on top fo the left sorta like holding a pistol

Yeah I either prop my forearm up on my knee and shoot that way. or have my hand turned almost sideways (the character in game looks so gangsta holdin his gun dat way) If you're having alot of problems go buy lithium batteries, they're lighter for your puny arms.

If anyone is looking for a Wii, someone that works at Target told me that they will have some on Sunday. It will be on the Sunday Target ad. At the store he works at they already got delivered but won't sell them till Sunday.

is this only in the LI area or the entire tri-state?

I can't confirm Tri-State, right now only Long Island, specifically Nassau and Suffolk.

Yeah they are. Unfortunately a lot of people just took all of them, didn't load them with any money, and tried to sell them on eBay. Scum. :thumbsdown:

Target was giving the Wii Giftcard with $20 bucks in it.. if you purchased 3 games on launch day.
I got one that way ^^. If use the balance, i'm gonna tell them to return that to me so i can keep it.

FINALLY!!! Only took 50 hours, but I beat Zelda. The ending is awesome, and the fight with Ganon is hard as balls.

Well I still need to get 15 heart peices, and I have to find 20 golden bugs. So that will probably put another 20 hours on there for the projected 70 hours of play. I need to get the new armor too.

I have a feeling i won't bother with the bugs. I have 3 up through right after the 2nd dungeon. But I think I missed a heart piece.. argh. heh

I'm still trying to find one of these. Are there confirmation that target/toysrus/walmart will have these tommorrow? I've called them all and they claim they have none and have no clue when they will get more.

Walmart here said they would have more the 6th. I couldn't get any info from the other target or toysrus
