Ah, the day is approaching. In less than a week, we will be privileged to experience the mastery in video game art, known as the Wii U. But the Wii U was announced a long, long time ago. When you first heard about it, you were suspicious as to how it would work. But in the past couple months, you learned more about it, and you were excited. But then you realized, it wasn't out it. You had to wait. And finally after many days of brutal torture, it's out. But what I want to know is what did you do to kill time while waiting for the Wii U? Did you feed your addiction by watching many YouTube videos of the Wii U? Did you play games you haven't played in a while? Did you seek out online Nintendo haters, just so you could verbally beat some sense into them? Or something else.

i tried to catch up on those underrated Wii games or ones i never played. but yes its that time for a new console to grace my living room. i cant lie though im not as excited about Wii U now as i once was. it just feel like something is missing from the launch. i dont have the same feeling i had with Wii, Gamecube, and N64. but totally looking forward to the games launching 2013 and beyond.

I've been ignoring it. It has worked quite a bit. But since we're in the final week, I don't think ignoring will help anymore. :(

I was once known here as KillerMario, but since I really like Banjo-Kazooie, I changed my display name to show them my respect :)

Played a few games, until I bought this magical little thing called.. GUILD WARS 2.. I played like 20 hours in the first two days somehow and it flew by so quickly, I am amazed that I played that long..

I am still playing it and loving it more than any other MMO and possible game I've played, Wii U might not be pre-ordered now, I might just get it around Christmas due to lack of money, but we'll see.

I'll be going to school. While I'll be posting and chatting on the forums. I'll also be working through Paper Mario Sticker Star ( World 3 right now). On Saturday I'm going to Shadocon. Then I'm lining up for the midnight launch at around 5PM. So yeah, I've got stuff to do while waiting for Wii U.

I played The Last Story. I logged 25 hours in single-player mode and I'm guessing I also played the online for 25 hours, making it 50 hours total.

Same!

I've been working here and there, watching Gordon Ramsay cooking shows and making papercraft Kamen Riders (randomness). Saturday I had a craving to play Mario Sunshine so I played a bit but I had no clue on earth where I had to go, then the transformer blew up down the street and my whole block lost power for 2 hours. Saturday night and Sunday I finished my epic Wii U montage then tonight until Sunday morning it's Black Ops 2 time.

I almost sold my Vita to put towards the Wii U, but the "game collector" in me said to hold onto it.

Will probably spend all those days on YouTube. Luckily my school has got launch day off anyway :D
