The Secret Ingredient is silicon

So Christmas has begun early - as it often does in my house, for some reason. Starr got me the Wii I have been waffling about since its introduction: I wanted one, but couldn't really justify one (which makes it an awesome gift, if you think about it).

As I mentioned on Twitter, she also picked up the Iron Chef America game, which I found surprisingly entertaining, and potentially Repetitive Stress Injury-inducing. I think it'll go over well when we have friends over, as it's fairly easy to pick up and a round plays fast. Plus it's got the voice acting talents of the Chairman, Alton Brown, and Masaharu Morimoto, so you can't go wrong.

Now that I have this new console, a quick poll for purposes of future wishlisting: what games on the Wii are the most awesome and should really be in our library?

LEGO Star Wars, if you like LEGO and Star Wars

I've got to check out the Iron Chef one, I'm bored with Cooking Mama.

Basically, all first-party (Nintendo) titles are good, and everything else is mediocre to crap, with a few exceptions. The Wii is just too popular while being too different, so every software house is rushing to put out anything they can, and the quality has suffered.

:laughing: I'm strange in that I rather like my DDR game for the Wii, mostly for when I remember to exercise...:D
