Nintendo Wii - Thanksgiving Outing

Lately this has became a gaming blog... hahaha...

Anyway, my precious Wii got to do some traveling today. Erica's parents invited me to their family Thanksgiving gathering. Since I am trying to lure as many people as possible into the way of Wii, I decided to bring my Wii along.

We actually went to two separate gatherings - and in both occasions, the Wii did not disappoint me at all. Wii Sports proved to be enough for the day and I don't even have to bring out the real party game (Rayman). Within minutes of getting the system up and running, we were all bowling, golfing and boxing away. Dick and Tom dominated Bowling - it would be fun to pitch them against each other and see who will be the Bowling Champ. Though I did not win, the flip side is that my bowling score definitely improved, consistently breaking 100 mark now. Next goal - 150!

I also boxed a bit - I think Sandy did took a picture of me and Tom while we were fighting. I'll have to get my hands on that one so that I can post it up somewhere. Besides grown ups, the little ones also dished it out as well. Needless to say, they liked playing it (well, at least I think they do).

Since we were going to two different places, there was much time to play all the games extensively. I checked my records earlier and we played like an hour each at each place. Hopefully it'll be enough to convince them to buy a Wii~ =)

I am pretty sure my shoulders will be sore tomorrow with all the Wii Sports time I had today. Now only if Nintendo pays me to promote the Wii, that'll be perfect!

Konphused mentioned doing another Wii gathering this weekend, I'll see how that go (if happen, that'll be my 4th Wii "demo" this week...hohoho)


P.S. Phrases i said the most during the day?
- Press the "A" button
- Put the strap on
Wakakakakaka...
