We have one here too..we are both 49 and love it!!! I want to get the new snowboard game that you use the balance board with. It gets us up off the couch. We also like the golf and tennis.

. My kids really enjoy it , but we do too ( It's about the only time I enjoy golfing with my dh

) There are sooo many games , and as others have said you can download older games , and the wii fit is awesome ! You really can't get bored.

We got our boy's the Wii when it first came out and have loved it! My husband and I like to play the games and we just got a Wii Fit for them for Christmas, we opened our gifts today so that they could play with their stuff tonight sense we spend all day at my moms on Christmas, and WOW is that fun! I want to go get the Shawn White snowboarding game now!!

I don't have a Wii, but from what I've heard, I think it's probably one of the better FAMILY game systems. I've noticed that most of games for Xbox and Playstation and that are getting very explicit and violent, whereas Wii is more family friendly, which I like. (Yes I'm 21 and am concerned with things being family friendly and no I have no children lol) I get irritated and offended with my husbands games hearing all the explicit language that these games have. I think it's awful. Anyways, I think Wii is great! I played it once at Best Buy and I really want one... I want the Wii Fit so I can get back in shape.

My husband and I are both in our late 20's and we love the Wii. We actually played ours a couple of nights ago. The sports game that comes with it is really fun (i prefer the bowling one) and they also have other games that fit to adults. It is actually a game system perfect for the entire family. I asked for the wii fit for Christmas, so I am hoping I get it!!!

I do not allow my boy's to play the more violent games. My husband and I are both 36 and we have 4 boy's ages 15,14,12,and 11 so I still have to watch what the younger ones are exposed to

. We are pretty strict and we review the games before we decide if it is one to add to our collection. We have other gamming systems in our home too but I really like the Wii the best.

I got WII Fit for CHristmas...this will be fun!

I'm glad, because some of these games are AWFUL.

You will love the Wii! It is very fun, and any age can play it and have fun. We love playing Mario Kart and you can go online and place against people from all over the world, so its pretty interesting. We also have the Wii Fit and it is great! I love the hulahoop game! My bf always makes fun of me when I do it, but it is great exercise and you can tell its working just by how sore you are the next day! Have fun with it and enjoy!

luvfla · 12-26-2008, 08:02 AM

What is Mario cart??

Aerosnap1981 · 12-26-2008, 09:24 AM

Hi, we got the wii after last christmas and I am going to be 28 next month, and we had lots of fun playing golf and bowling. We also have carnival games, kinda cool, just like being at a carnival with the games they have. The racing games are awesome. We got super mario galaxy which was fun. I also like the shooting games! Merry Christmas to you guys, the wii will definately keep you occupied!

Aerosnap1981 · 12-26-2008, 09:26 AM

Has anyone tried outdoor adventure?

TammyJM · 12-26-2008, 10:03 AM

I am glad to read so many positive reviews of the Wii. My husband and I had talked about buying one...

My DD got hers on Christmas!
We ALL stayed up until about 1:30 this morning playing it!
My DH and I are NOT big gamers, but it was really fun!

We played all the Wii Sports games (tennis, bowling, golf, boxing, baseball, etc) and they were fun....Loved them all!!! Boxing...good arm workout!!

We also played an off-road racing game....big hit with DD and DH (since we have jeeps, etc).....

We also have (not played yet) the Wii Fit, guitar hero, another racing game (street, drag, etc), party games, paintball..and a few others...can't think of right now.

We have three Wii remotes, nunchuks and 2 guns. We might get some hand-held wheels for the racing games...but don't know yet.

It is really fun!!!
