Wii

I have broken down and purchased a Wii....

It's SO worth it!

I don't care how fancy or good the graphics are on an XBox or Playstation 19, the Wii is FUN!

I brought it straight to my family's house where we stayed up until 2am playing tennis, baseball, bowling, golf and boxing. I am freaking sore. It's just sad. But we all were! It still didn't keep us from playing it again the next day.

I then brought it to Spurs and Napster's place where we did the same. We tried a few of the other games that I have purchased. Napster's specialty seems to be Monkey Ball.

I've been surprised with how accurate the system picks up movements with the wireless controller. Hell, it even picks up my bad curves when bowling!

I haven't had the opportunity to really sit down with it at home and play with all the in's and out's. However, two of the things I'm really looking forward to is the fact that it plays Gamecube games (which are pretty cheap, and fun) and that you can go online with this thing and buy old games such as Mario Brothers and Donkey Kong.

So, if anyone has been interested...it is well worth the $250! (go ahead and pick up the extra controllers and nunchucks if you see them....you'll need them!)

Now excuse me while I go beat the crap out of Spurs in boxing! ;-)

I was wondering what the limitation on games would be... you answered my question!

we played in the new year with Frank J. and SarahK. I didn't realize I needed a Wii until then. Now I want one.

We had Wii good time :) Thanks for coming to visit. Hopefully next time I will figure out how to hold that darn controller correctly.
