was the blue light on the wii disc port? just curious?

No, it wasn't on. There were plenty of other lights though, blues and whites everywhere:

update on the images:

Turns out i have 80 images and it's going to take a very long time. I guess i'll do it in phases. I'll start with pictures of interest first and post them up. Then i'll post others asap. After they're all up, i'll stick them in a gallery.

Also: Sry about the image quality. I though they looked pretty good on the screen of my camera but when i viewed them on my computer, it's not all that great. They're not horrible (as you can see above) but still not that pretty.

Wow, what a line. I hope they aren't that long when they finally come to the local GameStops.
Thanks again for sharing, sounds like you had a lot of fun.

Where in Manhattan did they open it? I work there so it should be an easy sub ride. I would love to stop by and try out the damn Wii.

only 32 days for me in the UK! Wont it be amazing when we will be able to play this non-stop on launch day? I dont think ill be able to come on here after the 19th, listening to everyone with their wii's... And i have my mock exams starting three days after launch... Ah, well... Im sure failing wont be that bad.

Sure, if by "stop by" you mean "make a day out of waiting in line to play it for maybe 15 minutes"

Omfg... the freaking long line. You can see the door a little further down with the window walls


A very tall man and another vew of the line:


My first glimps of a real life Wii box at their display window


My glimpse of inside the store: more lines Lucky bastards though


The door inside. So close!!!


The line to Zelda and other games. It starts on the bottom of the stairs and takes forever


Wii sports Tennis!


Wii sports warning sign lol!


Some wierd guy playing Wii boxing. Jk jk, it's me.


My Nintendo Wii guide who supported me throughout the boxing match lol. btw, of course all Wii units were manned


This lucky dude won the raffle. See the nintendo guy with the mic holding the gift bag?


A better view of the Wii in ll it's glory


A great picture of the Wii sports menu


After you pick the sport, you get to pick your Mii


After you pick your Mii, you confirm it


Left Handed Folks, even Nintendo is thinking of you Here's the menu where you get to choose which hand you use


Because the Wii thinks it's the same person playing the Wii for 5 hours: at least they have safety first


Some Wii Baseball!! THe versus screen;


Some Zelda for ya


A closer look of zelda:


Another look of Zelda. Again, sry for the quality. If you made the image smaller, it looks better


A look at the line to Zelda+other games. The one closest is zelda and in the very back to the left are 3 other games (Rayman, monkeyball, excitetruck). on the right (off screen) is dbz


I think you all know who this is.....


The Wii shirt on the left and NES on the right


Some more zelda


The zelda+other games line. This is a little further up the line from the last pic
