It is mid-April and we are a few weeks away from the release of some much-anticipated titles.

Mario Kart is due out April 29 while Wii Fit will be available in early May. Also WiiWare launches in early May as well. It’s exciting that these titles that I have been waiting on are so close to being released. It also makes me realize that I need to save my money to buy it all. Of course soon we will have our economic stimulus money. What better way to stimulate the economy than spend the money on video games.

I bought Mario Kart 64 for the virtual console since I was really anxious to play Mario Kart again. It’s fun but will be wonderful to play the Wii version.

An exciting few months are coming for casual gamers.
