Yes, Zelda: Twilight Princess is a game.
You need it only once, so it is good enough if you know somebody who
owns this DVD.
On the other hand. Zelda is fun, so buying it is not such a waste of money.
On the other hand I guess, that buying a cheap DVD player is less time
consuming, cheaper and more user friendly than
Zelda -> Twilight Hack -> Home brew -> DVD Player SW

Hmm I never heard about official download sites for the Wii.
If it were legal, than it is very probably not based on home brew.
If it were illegal, than you shouldn't even have to pay for the download.

So, a 20% decline in sales for the PS3 from November of 2007 to November of
2008 is "holding its own"?
I am hoping that when KZII and GOWIII cone out, that PS3 sales will rise
again, along with a price drop. But, if their sales range the same after
those releases, then something may really be wrong.
