Good luck finding the gold Wiimote WaveLink. Yikes, the Ganondorf worshipping resellers are already out in full force selling them for jacked up prices. Anything released by Nintendo in "Limited Editions" should just be insta-purchase. Oh well, I just bought the standard version for $40.00.
To blessed to be stressed.
80's music makes me feel fabulous.

@Ryno: You can always check places like Gamestop later on for the gold wiimote alone. I bought the standard version of GoldenEye cause that was all I could afford at the time but really wanted the gold CCpro. A few months later I went to a used game store in my area and they had a few gold CCpros for sale used without the game so I snagged one than.
Now the Gold CCpro just looks rockin attached to the gold Zelda Wiimote.

Thanks for the idea. I will check for it periodically since I am sure I am not going to start the game up for awhile anyway. If I find one I will be able to fully geek out Skyward Sword style. I am sure my wife will be totally turned on by her 30 year old husband swinging a gold Wiimote around the living room pretending its a sword in some fantasy hylian/elven-like land! Haha...

I give up, finding the Golden Wii remote Skyward Sword Limited Edition bundle is like finding a strand of He-Man's hair in Kingdom GreySkull. Besides i can't wait anymore, I have to play it this month during Christmas WinterWonder land(Even though there's no snow in sight yet.lol) December. Same deal with Super Mario 3D Land following Kibyr's Return to Dreamland which I'll be firing up tomorrow.
But ya, the Skyward Limited Edition Bundle is going for $160 plus shipping on Amazon and eBay. eek! I've got to watch my money this month, yet a good Chuck E Cheese Chunk of me is tempted, but at the same time i could buy the standard copy now, or wait close to 2 weeks until i get payed and pay almost twice as much for the bundle on Amazon. Ahhh, what's a Wavester' to do!?
I know! Eat Ginger Bread Sugar Cookie Pop Tarts and Watch The He-man & She-ra and Peewee's Playhouse Christmas Special that's what. lol
You have quite a late of new games there on the scheduled curriculum of Fast Time's at Wavster High. Where's Waldo Retro? As long as you are watching Pee Wee, He-man and She-Ra though I can't complain since you are still getting some history. Those Ginger Bread Sugar Cookie Pop Tarts sure look delish.

The last retro goodness WaveTrain that i experienced as of latey' would of had to of been Ghosts 'n Goblins and Donkey Kong 94' which was one of the best GB games I've ever played. Which remindes me i completely forgot to bust out a little mini review. I need to get on that faster than a dripping hot early 90's 'Saved by the Boner' Kelly Kapowski.
And where's Waldo Retro? I don't know, but i was laughing over that one.lol...Man I need to find a way to shimmy in a smaller CRT without taking too much room. Playing the retro goodness is a must, I've got all of these classics and they're just sitting there looking Alucard-awesome yet unplayed because i can't stand playing them on my LCD.
Anyways RynoIcarus have you gotten around to check out Castlevania ReBirth yet? if not you must As it's a fresh Retro throwback with killer Genesis-like Chiptunes, Simon's Fire whip is in full force and you can control your jump in mid air SCIV-style and it boasts one of the best traditional Castlevania Drac' battles in Castlevania history. It's a 'short' yet sweet and Arcadey' time in TransleFunkia. I like it just as much as the original, if not more. SCIV(especially), III and Rondo are still the top 3 for me though.
A Kelly Kapowski background should definitely be a "Wii purchase" option. Haha! I have not got around to Castlevania Rebirth. I know you say its Secret of the Ooze awesome sauce but I don't know. Here's the thing, do I spend my limited gaming time on new retro style titles or do I play the actual classic retro gamea instead? What is a future intergalaitc bounty hunter to do? But Wave The Dream Master hasn't let me down so I should seriously consider it. Dont know when, but sometime.

Lol totally dude. I am sure that the Gold Wiimote will be available in used stores in a matter of time. I also bought another wheel for Mario Kart Wii that way a few years ago as well. I had one that came with MKW but I didnt want to have to buy the cheap wannabe off brand wheel and didnt want to have to buy another copy of MKW just for the wheel. I waited a few months and sure enough a wheel popped up all by itself for 5 bucks at Gamecrazy (god I miss that place).
Oh and nothing is hotter to a woman married to a video gamer than one who swings in gold Wiimote around thinking hes Link. lol at least thats how it should be

SNK Arcade Classics - 20 bucks brand new at a local game store. Saved me a lot of money from the Virtual Console downloads. This Christmas, Santa better deliver Data East Arcade Classics and House of Dead Overkill or else there will be hell to pay.

I've thought about getting this. But, man, where is Ikari Warriors arcade? Don't' know how you have an SNK Arcade Classics title without Ikari Warriors!
I've never played the Saturn original. I've been told its awesome but I would have to play it myself before I develop an opinion.
But the game itself is annoying. I hate the music, the boss battles are tedious and the overall storyline is uninteresting, and dull. The gameplay doesn't grab you like other games do. Even Sonic does a better job at that.
Oh and btw, hows Kirby Return to Dreamland? Is it as good as I'm hoping it is? xD
I thought I might catalog my collection for Wii. Unfortunately not in a complete chronological order since I had a Wii from launch.
#1 Wii Sports (Bundled) #2 Wii Play #3 Super Monkey Ball: Banana Blitz (poor control scheme led to hand soreness, did not play much, should have sold it) #4 Need for Speed: Carbon #5 Rockstar Table Tennis #6 Excite Truck (Second hand gift) #7 Legend of Zelda TP (Gift, just could not get into it, started playing again after several years, currently at Fire Temple, will finish one day) .....Gathered Dust...... #8 Tenchu (Second Hand Gift from Wife, god bless her but she has no idea with games, never played it) #9 Far Cry (Ditto) #10 Little King's Story (A gem, shame it did not do well, glad its legacy continues with the upcoming Vita game) #11 Muramasa The Demon Blade (Another gem) #12 Trival Pursuit (Gift from Wife, played once with friends) ....Gathered Dust.....
To be continued...
(Never traded games, mostly bought new, willing to wait long for discount which makes me a 'typical' Nintendo customer)
