I won a Wii off eBay. I truly didn't even intend to, because I've bid on them quite a bit before but I never went over $300 bucks because I don't want to pay that much.

I just randomly bid on one, and when I saw I had new email I assumed it was an OUTBID NOTICE LOL. But nope, I won it miraculously. It should be here by Wednesday, naturally that's the only day this week I have school due to holidays and all. OH CRUEL FATE. For the record, I didn't pay much over what it retails for, and the shipping cost would be about the same as the sales tax, so I'm content.

Anyway, I'm looking forward to it. It's kind of sad that what inspired me to bid was the fact that [livejournal.com profile] krile and I were playing the various Mario Party games on Valentine's Day (yes, I'm so romantic) and I suddenly realized OH CRAP IF WE DON'T GET A WII SOON WE COULD MISS OUT ON MARIO PARTY 8! (even though it doesn't come out for months) That series is so obviously pumping out halfassed sequels for an easy profit every time but it's some of the most hilarious gameplay I've ever had. With the Wiimote it'll be beyond fun.

Now I'll finally be able to put that copy of Twilight Princess for Wii we have to use.

This begins my perfect plan for console domination (TM) wherein Krile and I stockpile PS2 RPGs for our horrible, destructive addiction to them. Meanwhile, we have a Wii for innovative next-gen crazyness, and that will play what remaining Gamecube games we pick up as well. And portables are of course a factor to reckon with, with both our DSs and PSP serving up portable RPGs and stylus touching action. All of this will sustain us until the PS3 significantly drops in price and comes out with better games besides the obvious FF and MGS sequels.

Yes, I've thought this all out far too intricately.

This is why I love "Buy it Now". In fact I usually use it instead of trying to bid on things whenever possible, because it's just not worth the hassle to save a few bucks. After being outbid by last-second auction snipers enough times, it wears on you.
