Happy Second Birthday, Wii!

Just wanted to make a quick note: Today marks the second anniversary of the launch of the Wii, and to give a brief nod of appreciation, I said a few words here. And I planned to say many more words here, but it's gotten late and I wasted too much time making an Avatar...

Dear Nintendo…

Dear Nintendo, I am enjoying Mario Kart Wii, and would like to know when I might be able to purchase the full version. Sincerely, --LBD "Nytetrayn" Seriously, there is NO WAY I'm ever going to get all of these unlockables. That saves for this game and Super Smash...
