corrosiverob:

sleeplessparadise:
we have been playing on our wii (which we bought just after last christmas) with my dad who is 67. Ten pin bowling wasn't so bad, golf we can do.......... baseball can't even hit the ball without it being a foul ball or being out :roll: Our daughter did the boxing an had us all cringing when she punched below the belt :lol: Tis great fun for all the family :D
strapping young lad:
there are only a few games which can be played online against each other...

battalion wars 2 which is coming out next year looks ace, as does fifa 08 but dont expect ace graphics!
ive got about 7 games at the moment, and have just ordered the wii zapper in anticipation for games such as medal of honor etc which are FPS games and need to point and shoot (red steel is similar but im still getting battered on it!)
Sharpshooter:
--- Quote from: "Smego" ---had a play tonight at the in laws, game play ok but got boring in the end, but the graphics are pathetic!!

When you say Pathetic. I assume your comparing it to the Xbox 360 or the PS3. What games have you seen on it. I have some of the other games like sonic and Call of Duty. The graphics are much better on those.
But remember that Nintendo have the edge when it comes to gaming. The Wii has always been under £200. The xbox and PS3 were bothe over £400, but due to poor sales, have come down dramatically.
The Wii has been sold out for two Crimbos in a row.
For fun i would allways choose the Wii. And yes i have all 3.

this is the same comment i get from colleagues in work but all of them own a ps3 or 360 and compare it which is pointless.
you can have the same argument when comparing the 360 and ps3 but the wii isnt after the same kind of market.
when investing in something like this which, to be honest, was more for the personal benefit rather than the family's then i had to justify the purchase to the missus, to which the ps3 and 360 were dismissed as the kids couldnt play on them (they are 3 and 2) however the eldest is good on golf and boxing and the youngest just throws punches everywhere but they both have a good time.
the argument over the 3 consoles has been dragged on for months now and there is no clear winner if indeed there needs to be one. i for one am chuffed to bits with the wii mainly because of the interaction, plus the fact you can get games like the lego star wars and you can get a light sabre attachment to your remote and play like a jedi, or a steering wheel attachment for the upcoming mario kart and drive it like you would in an arcade.
