For those interested, today's Amazon DOTD is the Nyko wireless sensor bar for $8.99. http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/B000LFJNG6
The reviews look pretty good, but I probably still have no use for a wireless bar.

Edit: Oh wait, maybe it's just a confusing website. They have a link to an "elite" bundle underneath the regular version. The elite bundle, which can no longer be ordered, says it contains everything the regular version does, plus the gig bag, keychain and a guitar faceplate. There is some text underneath the regular version which mentions the extra bonus items. So, I guess: Nevermind.

Pre-Order Promotional Items Include:
(1) Guitar Hero Dual Gig Bag
(1) Guitar Hero Key Chain
(1) Guitar Hero Designer 2" Wide Guitar Strap**
The $10 more expensive elite bundles included that, plus a t-shirt and an extra "custom" guitar faceplate. The elite bundles are sold out.

Does anyone think that this is going to be the best pre-order out there?

Well I went ahead and ordered it. I see that it is 10$ cheaper at another site. But I really wanted that bag.

Found a Wii at Target on Saturday. They had two left. I nearly jumped out of my shoes looking for someone to open the glass doors.
Now here's the bad part. It's sitting in the closet as a "Christmas gift" from Santa for the kids.
This will be the longest 2 1/2 months ever.
Wonder if i should tell my wife I need to crack open the box to setup the wireless connection

The wait will be easier once you realize there isn't anything great to play on it. Of coarse when brawl comes out that will probably change. That game looks hot like paris hilton would say.

^ Just be honest and tell her the internal flux capacitor needs a 60-day warm-up period of low to moderate use so that it won't short out when it does receive high loads.

Off the top of my head:
Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess
Metroid Prime 3: Corruption
Resident Evil 4: Wii Edition
Super Paper Mario
Mario Stikers: Charged
WarioWare Smooth Moves
And coming very soon:
Smash Bros. Brawl
Super Mario Galaxy
I'd put this list up against any console's first year...ANY console...EVER.
