Wiiiiiiiiiiiii

Wednesday, January 17th, 2007

Crikey, the Nintendo Wii is seriously fun. A co-worker had one upstairs and I spent a few minutes playing tennis. It took me a few minutes to stop worrying and just start swinging the controller like a real tennis racquet. The next thing I knew balls were going over the net, serves were being made and it was so natural. When you make contact with the ball the controller in your hand even rumbles giving you some real tactile feedback.

I then watched as two co-workers beat each other senseless in a game of boxing, all with two controllers and some deft moves.

XBox 360, Playstation 3, start running for your lives boys ’cause the Wii is what you aren’t; fun.
