Nintendo Wii Fanboy

For us Americans, today is a day for football, food, and freedom. Younger Americans need not worry about school for the rest of the week and older Americans need not worry about work. We're free to pass out on the recliner with a plate of food on our lap during the last ticks of the first game. It's a wonderful day and we give thanks for being able to have it every year.

We here at Wii Fanboy would just like to wish all of you a Happy Thanksgiving. Now that the Wii has finally launched, how many of you plan on spending the day with a drumstick in one hand and a Wiimote in the other? Plan on showing the family what the system is all about? Or will you take the time this day affords for a break from all things gaming?

From the entire Wii Fanboy staff, we hope you have a fun and safe holiday. Thanks for reading!

It's the first time we get to ask you guys now that the Wii has released, so, what are you playing?

For many Americans, today feels a lot like Friday and, as far as our employers and government are concerned, it might as well be. With tomorrow being the day we celebrate Thanksgiving by stuffing our faces (more than usual) with turkey, cranberry sauce, stuffing, and various delicious types of pie, we felt we'd ask what you're playing a little early. For all of our non-American readers whose country's past does not include Pilgrims and Native Americans coming together in peace, well ... be sure to rub your next exclusive holiday in our faces.

So what will it be? A little multiplayer Wii Sports with the family? Is your family interested in seeing what this Wii is all about, or is your obsession with gaming like some kind of contagious virus to them, forcing you to play Red Steel alone in the basement?
