Ok, I'll admit that I am not that much of a gamer. My leet gaming skills probably peeked with Doom II. As soon as games started requiring a mouse and the keyboard, most everyone passed me by.

I still buy a few games and play them, especially first person shooters such as FEAR, Half Life 2 and Doom 3. My preference is to play in single player mode. When I go into multi-player mode I can never win. It seems that I always rank in the middle of those playing. I'm not the worst, but then again I am not the best.

When I heard about the Nintendo Wii I got very excited. Nintendo is known for their easier, more cerebral games. I was also excited about the wireless controllers. Looking at the videos of the controllers in action, it was amazing to see people swinging the controller when playing tennis or punching with the controllers when boxing.

Since the PS3 was coming out I didn't think the demand for the Wii would be that great, so I didn't pre-order or anything. Now, a month away from Christmas, I am a Wii hunting.

Lowestdeal.com says they have them in stock, but I cannot believe that. Anyone else know where to find them?
