• Pushing aside the glass door,
    I waltzed into the game store.

    Looking around with an eager smirk,
    I walked towards the store clerk.

    Said he as looked at me,
    "What be it that you seek to see?"

    Puzzled by his awkward phrase,
    I stared back blindly, in a daze.

    Yet all too soon, I exited soundly
    And proffered my yearning, very proudly.

    "A new Nintendo Wii;
    Be what I seek to see!"

    Said I, much too awkwardly,
    Feeling rather foolishly.

    "A Wii? Why not a 360?"
    The nosy clerk asked mockingly.

    My resolution did not yield
    One Wii's fate, I knew, was sealed.

    Thus, I needed a reply
    In which, to show a reason why-

    Why, I would choose Nintendo's Wii
    O'er a measly 360.

    Said I, in voice so steady
    That I knew my Wii was ready.

    "I prefer less graphics
    In exchange for gripping classics.

    With Metroid, Smash and Zelda
    Wii will surely be the alpha.

    360's much too technical
    Wii strikes me as being personal.

    The clerk was clearly shocked
    At what I had so cruelly mocked

    "Since you hate the 360
    I doubt you'd like the PS3."

    Looking at him disdainfully,
    I yelled this out, defending Wii:

    "I will not put my loyalty
    In any system but the Wii!"

    The clerk stared in perplexity
    Thinking, I'd lost my sanity

    Eventually, he shook his head
    Forgetting what, I had just said

    "What color of Wii
    Would you like to see?"

    Again, he was talking in riddles to me
    But this didn't matter: I was getting a Wii!

    Therefore, I responded to his question,
    And gave him my full undivided attention.

    "Platinum," said I,
    In a voice full of pride

    "I'll be right back, just wait and see!"
    The clerk promised resolutely.

    And speedily before my eyes
    He disappeared, to grab my prize.

    Returning back, he handed me
    A silvery new Nintendo Wii.

    Hastily, I grabbed some games
    Too excited to read their names

    My hands trembling uncontrollably,
    I laid out my hard-earned Wii-money,

    Impatiently, I waited for my recepit
    Eager to try out my new Nintendo treat.

    "Bring this proof of purchase to me,
    If you would like me to reimburse your Wii."

    The clerk declared, degradingly
    Wishing I had bought a PS3.

    With indignation, I supplied,
    Why my reimbursement would be denied.

    "I will not reconsider my Wii
    Or trade it in for a PS3!
