NINTENDO'S EXPECTED CHRISTMAS GIFT

As analysts scramble to put the retail sales numbers of America in order, they've already concluded that overall it was a terrible performance. Three products stood out as the most popular this season: Nintendo Co.'s Wii, Amazon's electronic book reader Kindle and the unisex sheepskin apparel Ugg boots, reports The Los Angeles Times.

Once it becomes clear to consumers that an item is popular and might become scarce; they flock to it. "If people think it's going to be rare and in short supply, they're more apt to make it more of a priority," said Dan Butler, vice president at the National Retail Federation.

The Wii is cited as the big hit because it appeals to everyone in the family, and readily accessible to any level of gamer. The Wii and DS combined sales figures are set to break the 2008 record of most systems sold in a year.

While the big three outshined the popular teen novel "Twilight," Amazon.com reported they sold enough copies of the book to top Mount Everest eight times.

There is a group mentality to buying the same or similar product, but also in the retailers themselves. They often contrive sold-out status to lure customers back with the promise of "more product" in just a few days.

While these facts are illuminating, analysts are already sure this shopping season was the poorest in decades.

"One or two items don't make a season," said Marshal Cohen, of NPD Group, a research firm often cited in Nintendo related sales news.

Who wants to play a game where you defend Bush from flying boots? Or hurl the same ugly shoe at him again and again with no visible effects? We all want a chance to dig in the boot and more importantly we want to do major damage with an extensive range of footwear!

Champagne for the Ladies producer Holly Owen says �??The game is based on two basic yet fundamental principles- you can never have enough shoes in your wardrobe and you can never have enough blood in your games.�??

I Love Biscuits senior programmer Michael Bubnick cheekily adds, "The thing about our game is that it manages to educate and entertain. I believe education should have equal billing next to entertainment. Where else can you learn about shoes from around the world? Besides a website devoted to teaching you about shoes from around the world, I mean."

But seriously, why should Iraq have all the fun? Now people the world over can Give Bush the Boot ! Give Bush the Boot allows players to choose from a collection more extensive than Imelda Marcos�??s. Whether it�??s fashionistas�?? Louboutins in Paris, astronauts�?? moon boots on the moon or ugg boots in Australia, take aim and fire! Don�??t just hit your mark, make your mark! Couture footwear isn�??t just over priced, fabulous looking and difficult to walk in- it�??s deadly too! Use it to inflict a bruise, break his nose or hit a major artery.

If your will is good, your arm strong and your aim accurate you will annihilate the half-wit president and hear the classic Wizard of Oz line, �??But what would you do with a brain if you had one?�??

Give Bush the Boot is the perfect source of light entertainment for those still whiling away the last few days in the office before taking a well earned festive break.
