    Baaaaaa... baaaaaa...

    Hmm there isn't a sheep smiley...

    The Ipod shuffle, what a waste of space that is, save some money buy a decent MP3 player with more useful functions and a good pair of earphones.

    I have the 2 generation ipod shuffle, and it's good for exactly what I got it for. It's tiny, holds a decent 1 gig of music, and was cheap at $75.

    I don't need an 800 gig ipod with video and color display. I know everything I put on my shuffle, so I don't need a list organized out for me or anything.

    I'm not an apple nut, it's the only apple thing I even own, but it is a pretty good mp3 player, but the earphone are shit. I've already gone through two pairs.

    Here's a business update on Nintendo. In short: Sales more than doubled compared to last year. The same goes for the share price.

    No s*** sherlock...

    It's not like the Gamecube was selling in huge numbers last year, nor that there is a new Pokemon game (why bother with Zelda when Pokemon outsells the little imp several times over) that has become the biggest selling DS game to date in Japan and only lags behind Nintendogs and Super Mario Bros in sales in the rest of the world and thats only due to the fact that it hasn't been released in Euroland.

    From the Q&A of the financial report (http://www.nintendo.co.jp/ir/en/library/events/070427qa/02.html)

    "When I received a report from the U.S. that they sold 1 million Pokémon Diamond & Pearl already, I asked them, "why did you sell only 10,000 Brain Age last week, when Europe sold through 30,000?" "
    (also see http://www.irwebcasting.com/070427/15/c05ccf3e9c/win/main14.htm)

    Insert clever answer here>

    Yes we've gone from having 2 titles in the 2005 US sales chart to a massive 4....

    Yes look the PS3 has more better selling titles then the Wii and one of those was er Wii Play...

    Excuses, excuses. You can find a Wii if you look hard enough. A friend wanted a Wii and got one the same day... and this was in Luton.

    that's why the "casual" gamers have them. The same people who wanted tickle me elmos know how to get nintendo wii's. It's not hard to call a shop and ask when they'll get a shipment in. It's better than walking into a store and seeing none and shrugging it off.

    Not 'til after Christmas sir.


    Despite the fact that most gamestores get 3-12 weekly and places like Best Buy get 25-50 a week.

    And yet we still asked 20+ times a day, "Do you guys have Wiis?"
