Mine is preordered, so I better get a black one. $40 is more than I though the wand would be, so will only get one additional one at purchase, unless the $250 price includes 2 already. <]=) __________________ I be a hearty pirate that plunders many waffles.

That title alone is only reason why I want to get the Sony PS3. Guess I can proably rent the system but if Nintendo had MGS4 for the wii, no way I would get the PS3. Great price, I believe they been sticking with that price for default price for all their home console systems.

I would rent a system if it costs $600 without games, and wanted to try it out. But NOooOO black at release. THAT REALY FARKING SUCKS!!! I didn't buy a gamecube until it was available in black. DAMMIT!!! F*CK!!! <]=) __________________ I be a hearty pirate that plunders many waffles. The Dread Pirate Monkey Gizmo has scurvy! :) Nintendo DS and Wii, me gaming machines of choice.

Ahhh the classics, make me all jittery thinking of that ^.^ I do hope they can get Square Enix to come on board with their Virtual Console and release FF6 and Chrono Trigger With all the games on the Wii, wouldn't have time for any other system except when your away from the Wii then you have the DS to keep you occupied Nintendo will own all ^.^
