My first......

Yesterday I bought my first game console...ever. I have never been much of a "gamer" or anything, never had a game console growing up, except the Atari 2600 back in the early 80's.

So recently, meaning the last year or so, I have been wanting a game console. But I couldn't decide which one to get. The PS3 had all this hype, the xbox 360 had good games and graphics, and no one really thought the wii would stay around. Well I have finally come to my conclusion. I have decided to go with the Nintendo Wii, for a couple of reasons.
1) Family Appeal - I have a wife and 2 young kids(2 & 4 almost). The Wii looked like it could be used by the entire family
2) Commercials - the commercials for the Wii make it look more fun for the family and make the device look fun to play
3) Price - it is the cheapest of the 3
4) Games - it looks to have more games available
5) Play - it looks like there is more to playing a game than mashing some buttons

So those are my top 5 reasons I decided to go with the Wii. The console should arrive this week, I hope, it was being sent from Illinois this morning. I will give you a review once I get it and start playing.
