Ever since my boyfriend bought Mario Kart for the Wii, I’ve been obsessed with Super Mario characters. As a result, I’ve been looking for a way to tie in vinyl toys to my current obsession. I found this great post on The Girl Gamer: Best of the Videogame Custom Toys Part 1. My favorite toy is the Toad custom munny by ekoala. It’s really cute, and it just needs the baby stroller from Mario Kart. You can see more of ekoala’s custom vinyl on his Flickr account or his website KodyKoala.com. I wish I had artistic skills. Someone really needs to make a Donkey Kong Munny.
I’m not really a gamer; I only dabble with video games on occasion. I suck at Mario Kart, but it’s fun. You know you’re playing too much when you hear Mariok Kart sound effects when you’re driving on the freeway. I need those flying mushrooms when I’m stuck in traffic. I think GameCyte needs to write an article on MarioKart strategies for newbies like me. My next major purchase will be the Wii. I need to practice so my boyfriend doesn’t annihilate me all the time.
By the way, believe the hype about the Wii Fit. I hate exercise, but I think the Wii Fit is great.

Dayum. Wii Fit is tight, huh? Is somebody secretly on Nintendo’s payroll? Way to shill the Wii. Kidding. I wish they had a Bowser Munny so I can take out my Mario Kart frustrations and torture it.

Shooot, I wish I was on Nintendo’s payroll. Maybe they’ll send me a Wii as a thank you gift. wishful thinking…

i’m still pissed about not getting that last wii at toys r us. bastards.
now i’m wondering if i should just wait until they come out with the next gen wii…
i dunno. i kind of hate them right now. hehe. i swear they’re artificially increasing demand by withholding wiis. although, what’s the point of that? they’re not making any money by doing that. but whatever.
uhm. can you tell i’m annoyed? hehe.
