$40 dollars a year is no big deal. That's $3.33 a month. The AC in my house cost me at least 10 times that amount.

I owned all three of the last systems and I'll probably own all three of these too.

Very true. I'm sure it will get a lot more use than that. I guess I'll have to cut back on that AC then.

$40 dollars a year really isn't anything at all. I may play it less than 2 hours a day in the end, but $40 dollars a year is pathetic.

$40 a year isn't that much. Most people don't play games two hours every day. I have had my Wii since launch and have only played it about 35-40 hours.
