Awesome.

Orange Monkeys.
I think Bandit stole your thunder with the NES Wii skin; I'm waiting with bated breath for pics of that.
baited = worm on a hook
bated = breath.
Typo, fixed.
I'm trying to pick this up but the Kingston rebate form says a shipping confirmation email is not valid as a receipt, yet it doesn't say what should be used.
Also, you have to send in the UPC codes to get the rebate yet the site says the item will be "in stock soon" and the rebate is invalid 30 days after the purchase date. What's the ETA with the budget shipping for those of you that have already ordered it?
P.S. Monkey Ball Banana Blitz is $39.99 at Toys R Us next week
:o Warning! Urgent Wii Remote strap recall commencing! :o
"HANS GREIMEL, Associated Press Writer 1 hour, 24 minutes ago TOKYO - Nintendo said Friday it will replace 3.2 million straps for its popular Wii computer game controllers after the Japanese gamemaker received a rash of reports that the device flew out of the hands of enthusiastic players"
"Nintendo will offer customers to exchange the old straps, which have a 0.6 millimeter (0.024 inch) diameter, for a beefed up strap that has a diameter of 1 millimeter (0.04 inch), company spokesman Yasuhiro Minagawa said. The worldwide recall is expected to cost the company several million dollars."
"People tended to get a bit excited, especially while playing Wii sports and in some cases the control would come loose from their hands," Minagawa said. "The new strap will be almost twice as thick."

It appears you can request up to four replacements. :sneak: Straps will ship the week of 12/21.
THe invoice receipt that you get when you receive the package. That is what you make a copy of and send.
Budget shipping takes 7-10 days. There were times where I received items in 3 days. Its all due to location of warehouse from where they are sending products. Even though it says IN STOCK SOON, it should be in stock or else there would be no google checkout. Usually if the item is not availalbe, google checkout is grayed out and not clickable.
