Wii!

Anyone want to guess what just showed up at my front door? And anyone want to guess what I'm going to be doing this upcoming, rainy weekend?

Is Nintendo's Wii more than just a repackaged, litho-shrunk Gamecube with a 'think different' controller? What, if any, impediment will I discern in its lack of high-res graphics capability and other de-features compared to the not-necessarily-more-expensive Xbox 360? Will its built-in web browser adequately compensate for these shortcomings? And will my body, and my monitor, survive the experience?

Check back next week for my thoughts and, until then, leave your suggestions in the Comments section. Have a good weekend, y'all….
