Wii Wii Wii

It's pretty amazing how temptations or verbal advertisements work so well. It's almost like a craze. Then again, we are talking about Singapore kiasu-ness.

Well, just a couple of days back, Maxsoft organized a mini roadshow for the Nintendo Wii at Funan Digitalife Mall. The location is between Gamescore and G3. Booths were up and as usual the cute gals were there too.

This is essentially a good thing. The event will bring more awareness to the public about the Wii rather than some impression of a gaming console that might cost you a television due to an impulsive act of throwing the Wiimote at it.

But what really transcends these days were amazing. I got keen people who were looking forward to get a Wii for Christmas or other reasons and I got bystanders looking. The thought of "What's this next thing to get after McDonald's Hello Kitty plushies?" might have crossed their minds. And so, they blindly bought it and some games while I do get people who need an extra push on their backs. Total number of Wii sold on the event: 122.

I met up with Kane at Funan and I asked about someone. Apparently, he still remains the same. Which also explains a lot of things. Life goes on and everyone do have their own life to care about. I also met up with Thomas there too...really such a coincidence. Maybe the guy up there wants me to know everything's back to normal.

The holidays are ending and Huxley is becoming a bit emotional now. Well, they will be having their O levels next year. Fun's over and hell breaks loose. But then, it's a parcel of life. ^^
