If you haven't realized, I'm really looking forward to Nintendo's latest console. It looks like Toys R Us is too. According to their new list, the Nintendo Wii will be a must buy this holiday season. A Toys R Us rep lists the systems family appeal and availability as key reasons. Why didn't the PS3 make the list? "The PlayStation 3 is really geared to a savvy gaming enthusiast," said Kathleen Waugh, a spokeswoman for Toys "R" Us, of the decision to add the Wii to the list. "The Wii system appeals to young kids as well as adults".   Just in case you're interested here is the list.

The following is Toys "R" Us' "Fabulous 15" list of hot new toys for the 2006 holiday season:

* Blue Man Group Percussion Tubes from ToyQuest,
