So much fun! My dad got WiiSport for my teenaged brother for Christmas, my parents and me play it more than he does! Not only do you feel a bit of a workout (with the tennis and boxing games) but it's fun because it's healthy competition between family members.
Fun Fun Fun! This is so much fun for the whole group! My husband and I work with you ages 12-18, and everyone always has a blast with the Wii. My family has fun with it, even the grandparents!
I have never been a huge fan of gaming systems (X-Box, etc), but the Wii is different because it is more interactive! You can still be social while being entertained.
We got the wii for our teens last year. It was fun for a while but then they went back to the x-box. My young nephews think its great. They have alot of energy and like jumping. Also lots of fun young kids games. I think it goes over better with young families.

We gave the Nintendo Wii to our boys last Christmas and I have to admit that I enjoy it just as much as they do. The price has dropped nicely, even within the last year. Now you can get it for just little over $200. It comes with a controller and nunchuck and with the game Wii Sports which includes 5 mini games. We had to buy an extra controller and nunchuck, you have to buy those seperate as well, so things can get pricey. You can also use classic controllers with the Wii, we use the ones for Nintendo Gamecube. I like the fact that you can also connect to the internet and download classic games such as Super Mario, Sonic, Punch Out, etc. using Wii points, that you also have to purchase seperately. But you can also download the weather channel and news channel for free. Another feature that I like is that you can put in your SD card and browse through your photos and play around with them.
Overall, we enjoy this system very much. It is more kid friendly than the other systems and can make you get up and move. It has a great selection of games!!!
This is the best gaming console! I got one right when they came out and I'm very satisfied with it. Plenty of cool games to play too.
Anybody can play the Wii! I love this game system because it allows for more natural movements than other game systems which only exercise the "thumbs". I love the work out games, such as tennis and golf (games that come with the unit, by the way) and the Wii Active Personal Trainer is also an easy way to get some exercise at any time.... I highly recommend this game system!
had it and sold it, just wasnt for me with the games i had, i think the kids really like it and the excersize parts are way cool, but it does get old after so long
Gotta love the Wii!!! It makes exercising fun, and that's not easy!! Nintendo keeps coming out with new accessories for it too, so it keeps your interest (for anyone with a short attention span!!) I've had my Wii for 2 1/2 years now and I still use it a few times a week. It's fun to invite your girlfriends over for a Wii boxing match every once in a while, too! We also break it out at family get-togethers because it provides alot of entertainment, but for the contestants and the audience!
I am not usually a big gamer but I truly love this one!
I was always trying to find the motivation to go to the gym to do a little cardiovascular to try to stay healthy and shed a few pounds but I have to admit that it never really happened. So I decided to try the wii fit. There is so many sports you can play and they really make you work. After only a few minutes I already started to get warmed-up and after 20 minutes I'm sweating like if I just went for a run. It's great! Its also a lot of fun so you are exercising without even realising it! It might sounds silly but my favorite game is the hoola hoop. It's great for your abdominals, obliques and core. The first time I tried the wii, I woke-up the next day and my whole body was sore all over.
I have even lost about 10 pounds since I started using wii fit.
I would definitely recommend this game system to everybody, there is so many games available that it will please kids and adults alike.
Great buy!
We got the wii in January and we love it!! Its great for family time and gets is up and moving with tennis, boxing, golf etc. For birthdays and christmas this year I bought new games for it. We even take it with us on vacation for when we have down time and want to play its so small it takes no room at all to pack up. Its a lot of money but most gaming systems are this price or even more. I think the wii is a great system and will be around for years!!
