Nintendo Wii Replaces PE

I finally broke down this week and added a Nintendo Wii to the Pytlovany compound family playroom. We already had a GameCube and PlayStation 2, but  after memorizing every episode of Sponge Bob Square Pants I knew it was time for something new.

Ironically, I’ve never been a “gamer” type computer geek.  I have been involved in the programming of many games but I have never been one to get lost for hours deeply involved in game play.  The new Wii was primarily just a new way to spoil our grand kids.

Well, it turns out I’m hooked. So far, all I have is the included Wii Sports pack but I’ve already ordered more games and additional controllers. The ability to physically involve yourself in the game play is unlike any other computer or console game play. 

I love the action.  When I woke up this morning I could feel muscles I haven’t used in years.  I’m confident the new Nintendo Wii will have the following impact on my life.  I’m either going to lose weight or I’m going to pull a muscle.  I do understand why Cindi didn’t want me to hook it up to the 50” plasma screen in the living room but she has to leave the house some day.
