Sweet! Your mission is to turn pro in every Wii Sport.

I'm good at Wii Sports. It's just weird to play the other games like Super Smash Brothers, Call of Duty 3, etc.

Tiger Woods is great! I shot 55 under in one 4 round tournament. Tiger can't keep up to me.

Here is a tip. You can shake the controller while pushing down on the left-right-up-down pad to get backspin. You can also spin the ball sideways doing the same thing. This comes in handy when you hit it a little off target. You can spin the ball right next to the hole.

I have made it into my 3rd season on Tour and have come in 1st place in all but one tournament.

If only my real game was that good!!

Yes, but it doesn't do it always. It often means you have an update available. Have you connected it to the internet yet?

If you have connected it what is your Wii...I want to call it code? You can send me your Mii once you build it and we can play online assuming we have some of the same games.

Yeah, I connected it. I downloaded the updates. But than when I created a new character, it sent me a message saying to download a update. Well I did and it said I already had it so I deleted the message. I can't sleep at night with any lights and it's pretty bright so that's going to be annoying having to unplug it if it ends up all of the time. I'm not sure what my code is for my Wii, I'll figure it out tomorrow and let you know. What games do you have?

Edit: I had a message. I looked at it and deleted it. No more light.

Go into your mailbox and "read" everything that's in there. If you have done that and you have all the updates the light (in theory) should go out.

Register the serial with xbox.com and it will tell you. I didnt even need my proof of purchase when I sent mine in and they replaced it. XBOX is pretty good with that. Do it ASAP though.

Go into the Wiiconnect 24 options. If you have that on so that it is connected all of the time the slot light stays on all of the time by default. There is an option to turn the light off.

As my golf coach used to say, practice make permanent. It does not make you perfect. I have every option upgraded (driving accuracy, luck, putting, chipping, power, etc.). My long drive is 382!

Just for fun, I decided to take a picture of my entertainment system. I'm pretty happy with the way it looks because I'm set it all up and bought everything pictured. I'm pretty proud of it, I think it's a pretty clean install.
  • 55" Samsung HDTV 1080p.
  • Panasonic SAHT930 Surround Sound System.
  • Direct TV Receiver.
  • Wii + Cooling Stand + Charger Station + 2 Wii Wheels + 2 Wii Nunchucks.
  • Glass Entertainment Stand + Custom Box. I had to build the box so that the TV was at a good angle for viewing in bed. It was way too short without it.
