For those of you video game fanatics who have been avoiding the treadmill while awaiting the arrival of the Wii Fit to come to the U.S., will wait no more.

Nintendo has announced that the new Wii Fit will arrive into U.S. store May 19th and will be priced at $89.99. And for those of you in New York City area, the first 1,000 customers who pre-order Wii Fit with a $5 deposit at the Nintendo World store in Rockefellar Plaza, will get a limited edition Wii Fit with a reproduced Shigeru Miyamoto on it. Wow. I’m speechless. (Please note the sarcasm)

For those of you not familiar with Wii Fit, it comes with 40 yoga, aerobics, strength training and balance activities. 

For more information on the Wii Fit, go to www.WiiFit.com.

Right now at Toys R Us, they are having a great deal where when you buy one Nintendo Wii game at full price, you get another for $20 off. And they aren’t just on the crappy games either.

For instance you can get:

Super Smash Brothers Brawl - click here

The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess - click here

It looks like the 40 GB Playstation 3 will now be available in a ceramic white color soon after papers were filed with the FCC to release the gaming console in that color in North America.

The PS3 has already been available in white in Japan since November, so it’s nothing new to our counterparts overseas, but for those of you in the US, you now have something new to look forward to.

Except for the price. The really steep price. That’s not going to change.

But at least it’ll be white!

But it’s the reactions from all three of the kids that is priceless. Note to self: when swinging the Nintendo Wii Bat, grip tightly.

It looks like Nintendo wasn’t the first to come out with the motion controller it has for its Nintendo Wii. If this video holds true to its date, former Midway employee Patrick Goschy and others may have been the first. Goschy and possibly some other unnamed parties may file a suit against Nintendo for patent violation. As shown in this video, Goschy has clearly come up with a similar controller to that of the Wii, but only this one is used for the old school Dreamcast.

This is all a rumor for now, so treat it as that. The news was first reported from a local Fox news source.

Combining the two games is pure genius.

Watch it and see.

As everyone knows, the Nintendo Wii is in hot demand and nearly impossible to find for the holidays. But if you’re willing to shell out the cash and wait an extra month to get one, then your moment has come.

GameStop is offering a one day promotion on and only on December 21st called the Wii Certificate Program, that allows you to walk in the store and pay for your Wii and get a certificate in a customized DVD case that states you can come back January 25th and pick up your new Nintendo console.

At this point this seems to be the best deal out there, so if you’ve got the $250 bucks, I’d suggest you suck it up and go down there first thing in the morning and reserve your Wii. The hard part will be trying to convince little Timmy that Christmas doesn’t come until January 25th and not in December.

So this Nintendo Controller Backpack would be a fun gift to someone who is into vintage items or anyone else who was a fan of the console from the 80s. Heck, it’s fun for any kid too!

It looks like another Nintendo Wii fanatic is at it again.

First there was the Wii bat. Then last week we saw the Wii riding horse controller. But now, this person has taken it to the next level by building a Wii zapper out of Legos.

And by the looks of it, it appears to be fully functional.

I wonder what they will come up with next.
