I have never been much of a gamer. I know that sounds crazy but it is true. Growing up I was content to spend time with books than games. It was also not a very popular thing where I grew up. So imagine my surprise when Arpan comes back from pre school one day and says
" Achan - I want XBox".
I asked him what will he do with it and he goes all proud - "I will play with it. "
What a difference from when I was a kid. I dont think I even saw a TV when I was 4.
A week later he changed his mind and wanted a WII. I guess kids are allowed to change their mind every day.
Since I did not know too much about WII, I walked in to the nearest Best Buy and told the guy I needed a WII. He looked at me like I was crazy and said so do hundreds of others. I was glad I did not go and complain to the manager about the rude salesman. He would have thought I was not from this planet.
Researching the WII has helped me understand the attitude of the salesman. Arpan was all upset when we walked out of there without the WII. I had to promise that I will buy him one tomorrow.
I think my night will be spent on this.
Bye Bye - I have a WII to find.

Did you get one? :) Bet that might be a wait...my colleague here got one right when it came out...but I think he ordered it and had a long wait..Arpan and WII, wow, I still consider him a baby..The times have changed indeed, I was into books and pretend-play myself! As for telly, I must've been seven or eight! btw, you just got added on to my family and friends list. Hope you wont mind :) Greetings to Sunita and Arpan.
I did - I had to get it in the gray market - and true to his natuer he got bored with it in 2 days. I think he liked the thought of it more than actually playing with it.
