Two weeks ago we bought, or rather invested in a Wii – the gaming machine that licenses adults to be childish. But. for all its simplicity, its really captured us - although we have, for all intensive purposes regressed to 8 year olds since having this machine in our living room. Having said that we have had the biggest amount of fun we’ve had in years and its brought out a competitive streak in the two of us which just makes us laugh.
We have just got the Summer Athletics game which is just madness and is affectively Nintendo’s answer to a game covering the Olympics. God only knows what anyone walking past our front room window must think if they look in when we’re playing on it. It doesn’t seem to matter if you’re expecting something to happen or not, but it takes you by surprise and then there’s a frantic movement needed to achieve the desired effect. I’m sure we’ll master it eventually but at the moment I would settle for knowing how to dive and enter the pool without looking like some sort of demented spider, and as for the tipple jump….. well, it doesn’t bear thinking about.
Well, I’m sure I’ll ache tomorrow……
