I actually got mine as a gift on Friday, February 16, 2007. So never bought it for myself. Might buy it for myself or continue the tradition for Wii U.
I forget. I think it's been about 4 years, so about 2008.
And I didn't buy it, my mom got me it as an early birthday gift around mid-fall, and TEASED ME FOR WEEKS so I couldn't play it until my bday! Do you know how miserable I was for that period of time?
Well nonetheless, it's my favorite game system ever and I love it very much!
Summer of 2007, blimey so long ago.
I got a Wii with remote add-ons (like a baseball bat and a steering wheel), Wii Sports, Super Monkey Ball Banana Blitz and Mario Party 8.
I got mine the very first February after the Wii had been released. I was suppose to get it in January, but Game Crazy accidently kicked me of off their wishlist.
