Have you got a Wii

[bambinaUK]

So I bought a Nintendo Wii for the family for chirstmas and have just been playing Wii Sports for the last 2hrs. I don't think ive worked my arms out for so long in ages!!!

This is definitely NOT armchair video gaming!

I was just lucky, I logged on to Amazon and they had just 1 in stock.
My daughter laughted so much at my uselessness, she was nearly crying!!

I've also played the Wii...bowling and some pizza toss game. My arms were so sore after the pizza toss game. You really get a good workout!!

Be interesting to see what the Wii Fit is like when it finally hits the stores.

The WiiFit is flying off the shelves here in Japan. I bought my sister a Nintendo DS Lite for Christmas, and whilst waiting in the line for the till, almost everyone around me was waiting to pay for a Wii in one arm, and a WiiFit in the other arm.

The Japanese TV commercials for these WiiFit look like a lot of fun. I've seen a skiing game, and balance game, a walking on a tight-rope games, all sorts.

I haven't bought a Wii, but I'm thinking about it because it really looks like fun.

It would be great if they'd make the other popular dungeon crawl, sword-fight, zombie-kill type games, except with physical components like a treadmill and the hand controller. So to get to the next area, you actually need to walk/run, and to kill the dragon/zombie/drug dealer, you have to use your arms to manipulate your virtual sword.

Re: Have you got a Wii

Our family got a wii for Christmas too. I've only had a few chances to play, as my teenage nieces were here over Christmas week and the 12 year old was hogging guitar hero! lol! My 3 year old daughter loves Smooth Moves....she gets a kick out of shaving the guy's face and chasing the little guys away with the 'stinky stick'!

I played around a bit with Dance Dance Revolution and I'd say that's going to be a great workout and fun too! Guitar hero is a blast, but not so much of a workout. Boxing and tennis were the most physical for me so far. My sister in law was playing winter sports and crashed on the ski jump.....the visual was just so hilarious I almost peed my pants! Fun stuff!
