Don't the controllers vibrate? I wonder if Grandma uses it late at night, while the kids are sleeping... :-\

another retard fell for the wii massive advertising and gets ready to "enjoy" a "fun" christmas with the stupid thing.

The console is pure garbage and is made to sell games looking as bad as ps 1/2 games at a full price.

you could get better and a lot cheaper games for em on a ps 1 or 2, or even get them a portable console like the GB advance so they wouldnt sit in front of the tv screen for long anoying hours. It would cost you almost nothing and the result would be the same if not better.

people are just stupid and brainwashed. nintendo is doing a good job at stealing all these idiots their money for pure useless outdated and has been garbage.

Right, but the point of the WII is to force children to be active while playing.  The systems you talk about = fat kids.

my ass...it's not the point of it in the first place, they just added this with the wiifit crap propaganda. The main reason why you have to move your hands or arms to control the games is because it was suposed to be a "new way of interacting with a 21th century virtual environment"... Thats the bullcrap they sold to the sheeps in the first place about the revolutionary "wii".

Now it's a fitness accessory.

Yeah right.

Like moving your wrists and forearms is goin gto make you melt fat.


I wont even deal with the fact that most "experts" say that no quality third party developer made any decent game on the system and that most players have to feed themselves with the same old mario crap over and over.

He is really into portables, he has a DS, and psp.
I love the 360, it has the best games right now. Sony is blowing it with the ps3 imo.

My nephew plays the wii I bought him all the time, and he is much more active than when he sits in front of his ps3 staring at the screen.  Rockband forces him to play the drums and move for hours on end.  I'm not sure how you can claim the WII fit games don't force you to be 100 times more active than games on ps3 and xbox, but whatever floats your boat.

Lol he has that, he played it for 1 and half hours straight when he first got it.  He was burned out, lol. Anyway, he skinny and very active.

yeah it makes "very active" kids get even more hyper-active and annoying, screaming and moving and beating the shit out of each other in the end until you bitchslap em both and send em in their bedroom.

i haven't owned a ps2 or xbox in almost 5 years.  And I don't play any games online.

But I'm liking this Wii boxing thing.  it's a hell of a cardio workout.  Did it for 20 minutes and i'm soaked.  graphics are lame, but I don't care too much - I just did cardio when the eliptical sure looked boring.

Every fat bastard I know loves the Wii Tae Bo.

Fat Bastard: "Hey Tom, do you think Wii kickboxing is as good or better than Bowflex?"

Tom: "I really couldn't say."

I'm using the boxing as my cardio today again.

I tell ya, cardio sucks.  But the boxing is pretty intense.  Stickin and moving for 15 minutes is hard work.

I liked Wii boxing until I learned you could just barely flick your wrists and it does the same thing as throwing punches. Other than bowling I never play my Wii anymore.

I played 36 holes of Tiger Woods on the Wii and my elbow hurt the next day and I am super duper buff. Not sure if a 75 year old can play it safely.

;D

He'll probably hate it anyway but I'll tell him to build up to a full game.


Maybe I should have just bought him a carton of cigarettes. :-\

You really can't go wrong with cigarettes, especially if you are in his will.

I bought a wii for a 75 year old relative for Christmas.  He will probably never be able to golf again but he's in good enough shape to play wii golf.


Is there any type of game (handheld or otherwise) that someone w/Parkinson's and occasional dementia could handle?  I asked a target employee about that Nintendo D3  or whatever and he said that wouldn't be a good choice because 1) some games are reaction time games
2) others are brain exercise games where the dementia could be a problem....

but when he's lucid would the brain games be good?  Any thoughts please and thank you :)

video games and old people dont mix

No, last years. I just used one hand, not a good idea.
