So, my mom called me today to get help setting up a new Wii. I had hooked her up with my man Dusty over at our local GameStop. She’s been looking for a Nintendo Wii for weeks for the retirement community that she manages. Apparently this is one of the latest trends in gaming that seems to have escaped my attention. So, being the geek that I am, I Googled “Wii retirement homes.” It’s pretty amazing how Nintendo is working it’s way into this brand new market. I picked this article out because it is such a similar place to the one where my mom works.
Howdy! How’s the nesting going?
Well, I have witnessed this Wii thing for the older set. My pop-in-law is in his 60′s and can’t go a day without playing on the Wii. He has the 4×4 racer cars, and tennis… he loves bowling. My husband’s mom even plays. She never does that stuff! But she has her little character all setup, and they play bowling against each other.
Now if we could just get them into GH3!
I am not nesting! My wife is lazy, and I need underwear.
And food.
Sorry to hear about the underwear thing. My husband can relate.
Uh, your wife is pregnant, and hormonal.
Tread lightly, good man.
Viva la BURNOUT!
Dude — it’s really hard to sit in your living room, playing video games in your underwear, WHEN YOU NEED UNDERWEAR. Likewise, it’s very hard to “get your panties in a wad” over stuff…
Ah…Spoken like a true philosopher, David.
A while back there was something on the news about how good Wii was for the older set – yes OLDER THAN ME is what I’m talking about!!!
) Good for your mom wanting to do this and good for you helping her!
