We had HOURS of fun last night bowling on our Wii - our neighbors were here ( 55 and 62) who had never played a video game in their lives. By the end of the evening the wife won bowling w/a score of 171!
The funniest part of the evening was our neighbor and husband boxing! They were WORN OUT.
This is a unique system for sure .. very interactive, VERY easy to learn ... just plain FUN ..
That is not by accident. Nintendo is purposely courting the older generation and non-gamers in general with the Wii.
