I made him when the Mii channel had a contest for an angry boss. There must not have been enough Spiderman fans voting that day.

Well I've sent back the most beautiful Mii I've made so far - that being myself. :lol:

I also submitted a blonde, fat LemMii for consideration in the 80's Rock Star competition. :mabs:

We never added the Everybody Votes Channel. It seemed kinda... eh.

I picked up Spider-Man: Friend or Foe on clearance for $19.98 at Target yesterday in Vegas. Once I get home, I'll let you fools know how it is.

And I'll add Mr Black Reason to my friends.

it's alright, but better for kiddies. if you enjoyed batman: rise of sun tzu, you'll probably get a kick out of this one. i haven't had the opportunity to play it much, but my wife's cousin's kid enjoyed the hell out of it.

I meant to stop buying games. Really, I did.

The TRU just southwest of me is apparently going out of business, and had all their games for 40% off. Well, all their remaining games. The only Wii game left that I saw and had any interest in was Ninja Reflex, a collection of mini-games, which I always thought looked cool but not worth the $30 normal price.

Sadly, they didn't have Speed Racer left. Other TRU's have marked it down to $29.99 already. Were it $18, I would've jizzed my pants right there in the store.

Speaking of Speed Racer and the TRU that's closing, if mabs stops by here, I picked up a sweet little trinket there for practically nothing and am going to drop it in the mail with the Mabu-Con package....

'Kay, JJ, I've added you to my friends list.

You need to get Wii Fit and Mario Kart Wii.

I've got my sights set on MarioKart, as soon as my SW sales make me another few bucks I'll have it and 2 steering wheels. :bats:

Skip buying a second steering wheel at first. See how you like the controls using the nunchuk. Trust me. I could've saved $10 by not getting a second wheel.

Okay, copy that. I DO need a 2nd chuk and a classic controller yet so I'll save on the 2nd wheel for awhile.

Oh, and get WiiPlay for your next controller. It's a few dollars more than the controller by itself.

Also, if TRU in Canada runs the same sort of sales they do here, they often have "Buy 1, Get 1 Half Off" sales. You can get WiiPlay half off, whereas the trick doesn't work on a controller by itself.

That's a good deal. I did get Wii Play for my 2nd controller, I just never ponied up for a second 'chuk to go with it. :wink:

I have Rayman & Meet the Robinsons for the kids as well - they're pretty brutal (but the Rayman cracks me up, I must admit).

Damn, I'm starting to accumulate games faster than I can devote time to playing them... I have to stop, even when I see killer deals.

We had a $5 off coupon from TRU good today only, so we stopped by to pick up Speed Racer ($29.99). Mrs A really wanted that game, no lie. While there, I saw Zack & Wiki was down to $9.98, and everything I've heard about it says it's reminiscent of the old Sierra adventure games, so I couldn't pass that up.
