Glad Wii Sports is doing free sports for 48 hours.

I'm pretty sure I want Baseball after watching the Treehouse demonstration, and I'll definitely try giving Golf and Boxing a go.

And of course Shovel Knight shall be mine

Looking forward to trying out boxing, that was my favorite of the original Wii Sports. Baseball was definitely the worst, though. Of course, I didn't see much of how either has changed, so maybe I'll be surprised.

Bah! So disappointed with Chibi Robo. Everything could be so awesome! It has the looks, the sound, the cleaning, a cool concept and above all Chibi-frickin'-Robo, but the photography is so damn hit-and-miss. First item is just a fucking circle -- it could be anything! So I snapped a picture of a DVD next to me, which worked, but it was really supposed to be a pin. How am I supposed to figure that out from such a basic shape as a circle? But hey, at least it worked, unlike the second item. It's clearly an electric wall socket, but the ones I have don't match that specific shape, so they won't be accepted.

I really want to buy the full game because Chibi-Robo, but if the damn thing expects me to break into someone else's house just so I can get a picture of the right item in the right format, well that's not gonna fly.

I cheated and Googled the correct wall socket thing.

@VofEscaflowne
I was tempted to do that, but decided not to out of principle.

Is there a lot of those weirdly specific items in the full game? Do I have to hunt down a Yorkshire terrier and crumple up a tube of toothpaste just right to please the damn camera?

@r_hjort

Actually you need to hunt down tube of toothpaste and crumple up a Yorkshire terrier just right.

@Guillaume
Well, that's only a marginal difference, but at least I won't have to ruin my toothpaste tube...

EDIT: I have to say, I really dig that music playing by the Chibi PC though. Wish someone had ripped the song and uploaded it somewhere.
