Could we be any geekier?  Michael bought a Wii today and tricked me into playing tennis with him.  Now kids can get even fatter by playing virtual tennis instead of going outside and playing the real thing!

Duuuude…

That looks so cool!

Must be weird hitting tennis balls without any feedback (or do the controls find a way to deal with that?).

Plus, the split-screen thing was kinda’ cool.

There is force feedback from the controller and audio feedback from the controller and the console. It’s actually pretty realistic, except that you find yourself swinging TOO hard.

I used to play PONG when it first came out. As I recall, it wasn’t quite this physically demanding. Cool vidjo!

Everyone I know is getting one but I must resist. There are so many games I want to play on my DS that if I got a Wii in addition I’d fall off the face of the earth.
