'Tis the Shopping Season in Madison County Madison County Courier

Nintendo, Star Wars figures, scooters – two generations and counting. Those items disappeared quickly at the Oneida Wal-Mart on a recent afternoon, just as they would at retail stores across the country some 20 years ago.

But those who get a Nintendo Wii system this year have about as much chance as viewing a Super Mario Brothers prototype from the mid-1980s as they do an original mini-scooter with the handbrake and knobby tires. These days, the Ripstick wiggle board scooters are where it’s at.

The popular action figures are born from remakes of shows like the Transformers and G.I. Joe, nostalgic favorites for parents who unwrapped the same characters under their Christmas trees.

As always, electronics are hot sellers this year. The Oneida Wal-Mart store, easily the top retail destination in Madison County, had big-screen televisions ranging from under $100 to more than $1,000. There were Blu-Ray players for about $200 and GPS navigation devices starting at around $100. “Notebook” laptops, PCs mainly used for e-mail, web browsing and digital photo storage, could be found for under $300.

I wanna know so that I can find out where to buy them. We all know of chess, backgammon, checkers, monopoly, the game of life, battleship, ect. However there's a lot of games around the world that people have devised over the centuries that I think it'd be cool to learn about.


Mancala is a family of board games played around the world, sometimes called sowing games or count and capture games, which comes from the general gameplay.
