Use the tools of your trade: scissors, clippers, spray can, and more in this humorous, first-of-its-kind "first-person-groomer" game. Bonsai Barber features a colorful cast of 12 intriguing customers, including a temperamental shallot starlet (don't call her an onion), an oddball strawberry boffin, a cactus cowboy, a daredevil carrot, and a suave banana with top-secret clearance. Each day, five customers arrive to test your stylistic skill. If the customer requests a specific style, you'll plow that furrow, or you can rely on your expertise to pick from more than 30 popular fashions. Or, why not turn over a new leaf? Be creative and see how they react. They're a demanding bunch, so if you miss an appointment, you'll hear about it-on your Wii Message Board. If you do a good job, you may receive a gift or even a postcard from an exotic destination as your happy customers travel to distant lands and show off their exquisite coifs.

[Edit: Check our Black Friday Post for the latest info on all the Black Friday deals]
Black Friday:
The term "Black Friday" originated in Philadelphia in reference to the heavy traffic on that day. More recently, merchants and the media have used it instead to refer to the beginning of the period in which retailers are in the black (i.e., turning a profit).
This might actually be the first Black Friday where the Nintendo Wii might actually be in decent stock... After taking a close look at our Black Friday Summary list, we thought we would analyze some of the better Wii gaming deals out there this year.
Apparently Sam's Club is the place to pick up a deal on a Ninteno Wii bundle. Sources point to a $425 price tag which comes with the following goodies:
- Wii Console w/ Wii Play
- 3 Wii Remotes & Nunchuks
- Mario Super Sluggers
- King of Clubs Mini Golf
While you are at Sam's Club, make sure to pick up Wii Fit for $78.84 as well.
If you are hunting for cheap Wii games, here is a list of all the $10 Wii game deals:
- Game Party - (Best Buy, Circuit City)
- Bowling Pinbusters (Best Buy)
- Disney Princess Enchanted Journey (Best Buy)
- AMF Bowling Pinbusters (Best Buy)
- Wonder World Amusement Park (Best Buy)
- Fantastic Four: Rise of the Silver Surfer (Circuit City)
- Super Monkey Ball: Banana Blitz (Circuit City)
- Ninja Reflex (Circuit City)
Finally, here are some gems that you may want to consider:
- Okami - $19.99 (Circuit City)
- Guitar Hero III Bundle - $54.99 (Sears (Doorbuster))
- Gigaware Charge Station - $19.99 (Radio Shack)
- Deca Sports - $15 (Target)
- Boom Blox - $20 (Target)
- Guitar Hero Aerosmith + Guitar Hero III - $50 (Walmart)
Not exactly spectacular deals from the retailers thus far... The good thing ist that you can pretty well guarantee that both Amazon and Buy.com (details coming soon) will have some amazing deals to complement the traditional retailer's offerings.

Good Luck & Happy Black Friday!

A couple of WiiWare and Virtual Console releases are now available!
We highly recommend the Virtual Console release of the Genesis classic, Forgotten Worlds...
In Summary:
- WiiWare:
- Strong Bad Episode 4: Dangeresque 3 (Telltale Games, 1 player, 1,000 Wii Points)
- Target Toss Pro: Bags (Incredible Technologies, 1-16 players, 700 Wii Points)
- VirtualConsole:
- SPACE INVADERS: The Original Game (Super NES™, 1-2 players, 800 Wii Points)
- FORGOTTEN WORLDS (SEGA GENESIS, 1-2 players, 800 Wii Points)
Full Details:
WiiWare™
Strong Bad Episode 4: Dangeresque 3 (Telltale Games, 1 player, Rated E10+ for Everyone 10 and Older – Alcohol and Tobacco Reference, Crude Humor, Mild Cartoon Violence, 1,000 Wii Points): Move over, generically buff action heroes. Strong Bad is here to show you how it's done in his hand-crafted cinematic masterpiece, Dangeresque 3: The Criminal Projective. You play Dangeresque, a dirty cop in pursuit of a little action and several big sacks of cash. Can our hero stay alive long enough to defeat his arch-nemesis, save the world and get the girl? Looks like he's gonna have to jump.
Target Toss Pro: Bags (Incredible Technologies, 1-16 players, Rated E for Everyone, 700 Wii Points): Target Toss Pro: Bags is a new video game based on beanbag toss, the nation's hottest backyard and tailgate sensation. Bags – or Cornhole, as it's called in some parts of the country – originated in the Midwest in the 1960s and has since become a staple at outdoor social events from coast to coast. Similar to horseshoes, Bags is a deceptively simple yet extremely competitive game where players try to toss beanbags into a hole in a slightly raised platform or "box" for points. Whether at a tailgate party or a summer barbecue, the game has become a social focal point, and the unmistakable thud of bags hitting the box is now a universal party soundtrack.
Virtual Console™
SPACE INVADERS: The Original Game (Super NES™, 1-2 players, Rated E for Everyone, 800 Wii Points): Experience one of gaming's iconic franchises in this perfect rendition of the arcade classic. Take aim at the field of invaders relentlessly marching toward you. Move quickly but carefully, using the barriers for protection as you avoid missiles fired by the aliens and try to destroy all of them before they reach the bottom of the screen. Further enhance the nostalgia by choosing from several modes that simulate different versions of the arcade game (such as upright cabinet or black-and-white). Or if you want to prove your superior skills to a friend, try the new VS mode and see who can stop the alien menace the quickest. All in all, it's pure gaming at its best, now with no quarters required.
FORGOTTEN WORLDS (SEGA GENESIS, 1-2 players, Rated E for Everyone – Fantasy Violence, 800 Wii Points): FORGOTTEN WORLDS is a one- or two-player side-scrolling shooter made by CAPCOM. It was one of the first games to incorporate 360-degree aiming and shooting. This SEGA GENESIS version provides the same impact and intensity of the classic arcade game. In the 29th century, without warning, warships broke through the sky, loaded with fiendish aliens. They rained down fire, bombs, missiles and napalm, leaving the land barren and inhospitable. Humanity was enslaved and Earth became known as the Forgotten World. In a hidden place, a group of brave humans raised two male children in secret. They brought up the young men as warriors, training them for battle. The two warriors emerged as armed machines of might, strength and super power – the Nameless Ones. Fight the hateful invaders as the powerful Nameless Ones. Collect Zenny to upgrade your weapons and satellite, and free the planet.

A couple of Wiiware releases and a Sega Genesis classic make up the Wii Shop channel releases for the week of October 27, 2008.
In summary:
-
Wi Ware
-
Strong Bad Episode 3: Baddest of the Bands (Telltale Games, 1 player, 1,000 Wii Points)
-
Art Style: ROTOHEX™ (Nintendo, 1-2 players, 600 Wii Points)
-
Virtual Console
Full Details:
WiiWare
Strong Bad Episode 3: Baddest of the Bands (Telltale Games, 1 player, Rated E10+ for Everyone 10 and Older - Alcohol Reference, Crude Humor, Mild Cartoon Violence, Mild Suggestive Themes, 1,000 Wii Points): Rock and roll! Hurting for cash, Strong Bad sets out to dominate the “Battle Royale of the Bands.” Can he rule the stage and win the big prize? Or will he be drowned out by the competition? Find out in this high-voltage episode.
Art Style: ROTOHEX™ (Nintendo, 1-2 players, Rated E for Everyone, 600 Wii Points): Use colored triangular panels to create a vibrant mosaic of stained glass in Art Style: ROTOHEX. As triangles fall from the top of the screen, rotate them to group six panels of the same color and create a matching hexagon, or HEX. Once the HEX has been formed, it will disappear, allowing the existing panels to shift and more panels to fill the playing field. A clear-cut goal and two different styles of intuitive controls allow you to focus solely on the game play-which is vital, as the playing field will be full of panels before you know it. With multiple modes (unlock more as you progress further in SOLO mode), special item panels at your disposal, and the ability to play cooperatively or competitively with a friend, there will always be another HEX to create.
Virtual Console
Earthworm Jim (Sega Genesis, 1 player, Rated E for Everyone - Animated Violence, 800 Wii Points): Jim was an ordinary earthworm who did very earthworm-like things, such as flee from crows and eat dirt. One day, during an outer space fight, a suit drops to Earth and falls around Jim. It mutates him into a large and intelligent (at least by earthworm standards) superhero. Play as Jim in this Sega Genesis classic. When Jim learns of the evil plans of Psy-Crow and Queen Slug-for-a-Butt, he decides to rescue Princess What's-Her-Name. Run, gun, swing on hooks by your head and launch cows at the interesting characters you meet along the way, such as Major Mucus, Chuck and Fifi, Evil the Cat, and Bob the Killer Goldfish.
