Time off from work means Craigslist time

Since I have off from work for almost two weeks, I’ve been cleaning out my basement, garage, and storage up in my bedroom area. Now my living room is full of items I been meaning to sell. Most of the stuff is or has been listed on Craigslist. Some items like my baseball card  and stamp collection from the mid to late 80s will be taken to local shops to see what I can get for them. This is all monies that will be dumped into a hopefully iEverything upgrade spending spree by the end of the year. So far an old 27″ TV and a DVD player went immediately.

The other items I posted is/are disc golf bag and discs, Hoegaarden beer light, Becks beer light, Budweiser holiday steins, 23″ electric fireplace, Xbox 360 games, Wii games, printer and scanner, and a weed wacker.

I also have some autographed LP posters of Bad Company and some other bands around here somewhere.

Interested in anything let me know.

Who says Wii owners don’t buy games?

You just got to love all these articles from half-ass analysts, haters, and ‘talk out their ass’ asses. Everyone is quick to claim that the Wii is soon to die. The Wii is just a fad. It’s domino marketing sells will soon dwindle and all the Wiis will collect dust. Wii owners are only interested in Wii Sports and Wii Play and the possible first party title. Their is no way that attache rate of the Wii will match Xbox or PS3.

Below is just units sold according to nextGenWars.

This only shows total hardware. The attache rate for the Wii is nearing 5 games owned per console with the PS3 nipping at its heels. The Xbox360 has a total of 7 games per unit. Those numbers are close if you factor in the 360 was out a whole year before the Wii.

What games do I own? Do I help the attache rate? I sure as shit do.

First party – Wii Sports, Wii Play, Links Crossbow, Super Mario Galaxy, Super Smash Bros.
Third party –  Rayman Raving Rabbids, Excitruck, Geometry Wars, Ghost Squad, Resident Evil 4
Numerous Virtual Console Games
Coming Soon – Mario Kart (Sunday), House of the Dead 2 & 3, and Mercury Meltdown (these 3 are just definites that I will have within the month)

My Upcoming Birthday

It is almost time to get one year older. This year is my 2nd anniversary of my 29th birthday. Or, otherwise known as my 31st birthday…ugh. It is about a month away and I decided to post my wants for my birthday. (Not like my family knows of this site or even know that Qwikstreet is my online moniker.) Maybe some rich online viewer wants to buy me something on my Amazon wishlist.

This year I want:

PDGA Membership (or gift certificate towards it)
Gamestop Gift Certificate (so I can buy Super Smash Brothers Brawl which comes out on my birthday)
Wii  Zapper, Wii Points Card, Nyko Wii Charging Station, or Nyko Perfect Shot Gun
Bottle of Bombay Gin
