Our Nintendo Wii Has Taken a Vacation

We haven’t been using our Nintendo Wii lately. It was addicting when it was still new but with the Bible college classes I am teaching and our son’s home schooling starting it has become so hard to put it in the schedule.

The Nintendo Wii

You might ask why playing the Nintendo Wii is such a big deal. The reason is, it has become part of our exercise routine that it might even compete with the best diet pill available. We use the Wii Fit and the Wii Sports most of the time.

Skins for the Nintendo Wii

This very interactive video game is what makes it stand out against other video games. It may not have the great graphics and other stuff but it does not make a couch potato like all other video games. It can be addicting, too. But that’s what video games can do. It’s just up to the user to manage the time spent for these recreational tools. You should try the Nintendo Wii.

The 32" LCD is Perfect for the Wii

Our new Wii is just perfect for the wedding anniversary gift my wife and I got for ourselves last November. The size of the LCD screen is right for the size of our living room where our Wii is located. We are glad that we chose a 32” LCD over other sizes of TVs. If we got a smaller size it would be hard to enjoy the Wii with it. If we got a bigger-sized screen it would have been too big for our small living room.

32" is really great for watching videos on DVD, but for some people, using that size for just for watching HD videos is just too much. But one reason why we chose that size is for its Wii use. Using the TV for Wii Sports and Wii Fit, we just feel grateful that we bought it for us. We can play tennis or golf together and the LCD isn’t too small for us. Our son, who learned how to use the Wii remote in two days, is also enjoying his time with the Wii and the 32’ screen. He enjoys playing the Wii, but aside from that, he also enjoys watching the balance training exercises in the Wii Fit.

Our Wii Experience

This morning, I experienced my first work out using the Wii Fit. The Wii console was brought home by our in-laws when they returned from the United States. Wifey and I asked them to buy it for us. I was actually happy that my wife wanted the Wii too, knowing that she is not into gaming stuff like the play station or even PC gaming. She said that Wii is played differently than the other game entertainment systems because with the Wii, the whole body has to move. It is sort of an exercise with entertainment.

Last night, my brother-in-law and I did three rounds in boxing and three best-of-five matches iin tennis - all through the Wii Sports. When we both woke up this morning, we all felt the aches in our bodies because of the muscles that were worked while we played the Wii. We really are enjoying our Wii experience, so far!
