In the rest of this entry are the pictures from when I got my shiny new [Wii](http://wii.nintendo.com)
back in December. I didn’t post the pictures at the time due to my laptop
explosion. Warning: only geeks will care.
For the rest of you: the Wii is great fun, and I wish I had some more
time to play it. It’s a large part of the reason that I haven’t
been posting to the blog as much lately. And the Zelda game is just
fantastic fun.

I got back from EB Games about 12:30am.

This is what I bought. Clockwise from top left: extra nunchuck controller, classic controller, Wii Play controller pack, Zelda: Twilight Princess game, Rayman: Raving Rabbids game, the “free” bag that came with the pre-order.

Opening the box, there are two trays inside.

The top tray contains Wii Sports and the controllers. Note the included batteries – bless all companies that include the batteries in the box.

The bottom tray contains the actual Wii unit, the stand, the sensor bar and the power supply.
![Wii 6](http://www.exasperatedcalculator.com/wp-content/uploads/2007/01/wii_6.jpg)
The sensor bar, used to work out where the controller is relative to the TV. Pretty small – bit over a hand length.

The stand, so the Wii can be displayed proudly for all to see.

The Wii unit next to the stand.

All plugged in and ready to go.
