I tried it but gave up after a few hours - it just didn't have that Mario 'magic'.

i thought the bonus levels did. too bad the rest of the game didn't.

I liked SMS a lot, especially the platforming in the dock-area using the fludd. Good stuff that.

The main thing I didn't like about SMS were all the shines collected by gathering the blue coins. I think I got almost all the shines apart from those that needed blue coin collection. I got all 120 stars in SM64, I didn't feel like doing that in SMS...

I enjoyed it, but it was too small. I kept expecting to go on to the next island. but that's all there was. the FLUDD was great though. they should do it in 2D sometime... >D

Really pleased to hear the SMG controls are spot on. And hurray to proper music! Zelda TP really suffered in the music department.
<-- Did I mention how much i've been looking forward to this game?

I hope Nintendo have a secret warehouse full of Wii this Christmas, as i think demand is going to be rather high...

I hope so too, has anyone heard if Nintendo are likely to be able to meet the demand or are bringing in any large shipments?

Best place to buy a Wii online right now seems to be Germany (Amazon.de).

Is that cool graph on vgchartz still there? I can't seem to find it.

I was going to check out the current state of play.

Is the Wii still outselling the OX360 and that other one?

Here it is. Looks like the Halo 3 factor didn't dent the Wii's lead at all much.
And yes, the PS3 still limps along in 3rd.
