I thought this was going to be a K-mart special!

It is too bad that virtual console support for Wii / Wii U / 3DS was abandoned by N. I would have liked to have eventually downloaded more games to my 3DS.

@BLUEVOODU it was a note from Nintendo about how I can transfer all the Wii stuff to the Wii U. Must have been automated in some way. LOL
Hope I can do something to make it happen again.
Something really weird. I was able to go to the e-shop and download an app, skyward sword. It was the only thing on there. Something about saving your data.

LOL that's pretty crazy. Did the eshop still have the old eshop song?  And when you logged in, there was nothing else? Only the skyward sword?  Honestly, I'm a bit shocked that was still listed on there. I thought they shut it down ... down.

Nooooooooooooooooooooooooo (Darth Vader no)  sorry man... that's a bit of a bummer. 

It probably an announcement from forever ago that they shut something off lol. The weather app was cool... you could see the weather around the globe.

Did you find what it was?

@BLUEVOODU lost it! We had some bad storms move through the area this past week and lost power for several hours. When everything went back up, no blue light. Sad.....................I guess I can go in and see what it was now.

How do you pay with your palm?
I know that Aldi was testing a new way at one of their stores. But it was the store cameras adding up things you placed in your basket. When you got to checkout everything was paid for and it sent the receipt to your phone. You had to be pre setup to shop.

Man... I am pumped to see this movie. I probably have to wait until next weekend at this point.  It looks so good. 

I didn't think we had movie times that early.  But I'll be... we have a 930a showing in IMAX.  What in the world...?

Considering they used Trinity... I had higher hopes for the series.  The cookie Jedi was cool... and they really did kill off a significant number of Jedi in the series.

I didn't look at the negative comments, but my guess is that some of the negative comments revolve around the portrayal of the Jedi. 

Spoiler: ShowHide

I couldn't figure out why Sol killed their mother.  Unless he thought she was attacking or something... just not what Jedi do. I mean, they did start messing with their padewan's mind... but didn't "hurt" him.
