Taking the pi… Wii

This is just a short, little note in regards to my Wii preorder. A good few weeks back I preordered a Wii and was actually getting quite excited about owning this little thing. I hadn’t really thought about which games I was going to get, but of course the new …

I’ve started, so I’ll finish…
