Since its launch last October(?), The Nintendo Wii has made fools out of Microsoft and Sony, outselling them both... I've seen Nintendo systems in the past, and they kinda sucked. I thought the Wii was selling because people couldn't afford $599 for a PS3 or $400 for an XBox 360... Nope. it's because it is playable by ANYONE. Our family played TOGETHER for 2 hours last night, and it is a great bonding tool, unlike other game systems where a kid closets himself for hours....I am amazed at how realistic the bowling is... At $4.50-$6.00 a game at the alley, I just might be done renting shoes....
$300... plus extra controllers...
We're taking it to a pool party today. The pool will be empty. Photo at left is of someone's Grandma playing... Get off yer butts people.. Time to Wii.
We've officially got a new gadget-related medical term on our hands people, coined by Dr. Julio Bonis, who woke up one morning and realized his Wii was causing him sports-injury like symptoms. Wiiitis is the name, learn it well. it has been canonized in a letter published by the New England Journal of Medicine, Unfortunately, the treatment may be worse than the disease for some: Bonis prescribed "ibuprofen for one week, as well as complete abstinence from playing Wii video games".
