Wii had a great time

Last night was my company’s holiday party but I opted to skip it and go to my parents’ instead for a game night. We tried Cranium WOW which was a bit disappointing (probably because I didn’t win).

But the most fun of all was playing on the Nintendo Wii my brother found for my parents this week. Wii bowling is definitely my favorite, although the little games on Wii Play are fun too. I like how the Wii remotes now have a removable silicone sleeve for better grip and cushioning. I also like how Nintendo provides them for free (even to people who purchased the Wii before these jackets became available) instead of trying to capitalize on them by forcing people to purchase them separately.

I want a Wii now!

  1. How do you get the jackets after the fact??

    I was given a WiiMote charger for Christmas that actually has new battery compartment covers because it needs to make contact with the charger leads. These new covers have rubber grip strips on them that are pretty cool. I’m sure the charger (and plugging the WiiMote into my GHIII guitar controller and the gun) will keep me from being able to effectively use the silicone jackets all the time, but I’d still like to have them.

  2. I’m not a video game person at all, and even I want a Wii! Scott tried to get me one for Christmas, but they were of course sold out.

    What’s up with a holiday party in late January? Were they purposefully trying to avoid Christmas? It might make booking and planning easier, but once New Years Eve is over, I do not want to attend any more parties until next December.
