I can't remember when I first heard about the Wii... It think it was on digg, then I saw the nintendo site about the Wii and it was like "coming soon" and all that.

Me too, was a little worried when they changed the name to wii but it left the door open for lots of lame jokes, I'll never forget my boss' face when I explained my arm injury - 'I hurt my arm playing with my wii'

I believe it was around three years ago when I first heard of the revolution, then when the hype wore off and I heard nothing more, one day at Toys R Us I saw a Revolution pre order slip for $50 down. I went home and re-read the latest, and how it was now called Wii, and immediately went back the next morning to get my preorder. I got one of the last five in the pile, and they started out with around 40 I found out on launch day when I picked mine up.
