I’m converting to Calvinism because God has obviously predestined me for salvation.
Some of you might know that today is the launch day of Wii in Europe and of course I had to get one. Living in little Sweden, I didn’t think the demand would be that great and I figured most people would either be at work or school anyway so I thought it would be safe to go to the shopping center an hour before they opened.
When I arrived there were already roughly 40 people outside the store. I’m bad at estimating sizes of crowds, so there might have been less. The only way for me to count somewhat accurately is to mow them down with a lawnmower and then look at the kill count.
It might not sound like a lot, but I knew the store would only get 22 copies of Wii. I knew because work there during the summers. The strange thing was that store with a line was my Plan B store. My Plan A store was the other electronic store next door, which unbeknownst to many is owned by the same corporate. I knew they would get 11 copies and they open an hour before the other. What’s weird was that the queue outside this store consisted of a total of zero people even though it would open its doors one hour before the store with a gathering outside. Was my information wrong? Had the shipments to this store been withdrawn? Clueless I waited outside the queueless store.
Thirty minutes later the store manager came out. He went to the other line and told the people they would have 22 copies of Wii where in the store they were waiting at and 11 at the one I was at. Ten lucky persons ran over to my side and at 10am I walked out with a Wii, Zelda and an extra Wiimote while the persons outside the bigger store still had to wait one more hour.
When I got out of the store a guy from some school paper told me that some suckers on the other side had been waiting outside for two days. I waited an hour and got the console an hour before them. While they were waiting these two days I probably downloaded porn.
There is no doubt about it, I’ve found favor with the Lord.
P.S. where is the ethernet port, Nintendo? You cheap bastards have to think on other cheap bastards who haven’t bought a new router since the dawn of time free porn.

I rolled on the floor laughing when I read that. Wii~~ for pr0n!!
I lost the favor of the Lord a long time ago and now I’m going to chill out with Lucifer in Judecca itself after I die. That’s why I’ll wait until a modchip for the Wii(and the PS3).
I feel your pain on the ethernet port. I gotta buy some kinda wireless dongle now, just so I can get my VC on.
Wireless makes perfect sense for the Wii.
The fewer gastly cables that stick out of it, the better!
Me and a friend went to a midnight launch event in neighbouring Norway.
Wii (ZOMG! ROFL) bought the same bundle as you.
Can anyone deny the awesomeness of WiiSports?
[…] Why does God love the Norse so much, but utterly hates us Romanians (in general, and me in particular)? I never asked for a PS2, or a Xbox 360, and not even one of those manly, pink DS handhelds. All I ever wanted this Christmas was to play with my Wii all day long. Well, that and an imouto-chan, but I figured I’d be reasonable and just stick to the console. […]
For your reputation’s sake I hope to god that you downloaded loli porn!
No ethernet port, at the moment. They have one in the makes, but you’re better off just having a router or the dongle. But right now, internetz isn’t essential.
All it lets you do is send messages and Miis to other people, along with the capability to share porn with your Wii Friends (uploaded via SD card).
If you do go online, I demand a Wii Friend Code.
And I also demand you send a lot of porn.
As for my Wii adventures, 3 hour wait at a hopeless store. Another 3 at a store, where I scored the 4th last one. No extra controllers ( D: ) but, 4 games (pre-ordered, didn’t make the Wii pre-orders).
I lucked out. The store got like, 32 more units than they anticipated. (52 in total.)
Oh, I suppose I was a bit vague.
Nintendo has a wired ethernet “kit” in the works, to be released sometime after New Years, IIRC.
*gasp*
So… how’s Zelda?
*goes back to Zelda*
30 hours in! make way for linky!
