Looks like you're building up your Wii and DS systems. They have fun and unique titles that aren't found elsewhere due to their method of playing.

I'm mostly aiming at building up my Wii/DS shmup collections for now. Although I must say Alice In Wonderland has a surprisingly fun co-op mode.

I haven;t heard much about the Wii version, but the DS version got surprising amounts of praise when it came out.

the Wii and DS versions appear very different at least visually. Not sure how the DS version plays. But my wife had specifically asked for the Wii version. It seems pretty good to me.

In that case, get Nanostray BY ANY MEANS NECESSARY. You can't even talk about DS shmups without talking about Nanostray.

I got an ipod touch fourth gen, which I'm having a lot of fun with. The person who got it for me couldn't decide between that or the Wii, but I'm happy since I never had an actual ipod before, just a cheap mp3 player by another brand that did nothing besides playing music

Also got a portable hard drive and a portable retractable mouse. Those were the best items I think. I got other assorted things too like cookies, wallet, headset, towels, etc. I got money and a gift card or two so I may pick up a game or two with those(like Dead Rising 2)

Got the new XBox controller, as well as some more gift certificates to Gamestop, Amazon, and PlayNTrade - $165 bucks worth!

What's everybody's general opinion on the new 360 controller? I've used it two days now and really don't notice too much of a difference with either swivel-setting on the d-pad..

I know its past christmas but I finally bought me the Black Wii!

I went to FYE to get it.

I really wanted the red mario wii but it looks like they are out in my area. but when you have gift cards, it really doesnt matter!

I had some gift cards saved up for some months now, buying things and trading in, getting store credit.

I Paid about $90 for it! and the gift cards came from trade-ins of things that I bought at some fleamarkets.

I also got some games from Toys'r us they have a "buy one get one half off sale"

I ended up getting The munchables and Tornado Outbreak for Wii, and I paid $15 bucks for both of them!

I am a happy camper!

I got an Ipod touch 4th gen for Christmas too :mrgreen: . I'm in love with the thing. I've already spent like $25 on Apps cause a lot of games are on sale at the moment. Many for $1. :oops:
