I'm going to go home now and play some Wii Sports Resort Ping Pong.

Last night I actually scored four points against the Champion - Lucia.

Perhaps today will be the day to beat her. :)

BTW...in case you haven't guessed, Wii is my new obsession. DDO used to be my old one. :(

If there was a portable version you'd be able to Wii Wii Wii all the way home.

This probably belongs in off topic, but hey...

I sort of like the Wii, I've gone through phases of liking it a lot. Biggest problem is a lack of decent hardware specs and a trickle of good non-Nintendo-released games. A couple of third party games to check out:

Pinball Hall of Fame: The Williams Collection (trust me, it's great!)
Deadly Creatures
Sin and Punishment: Star Successor
Okami
and if you can handle impossibly-difficult old school games, check out the bit.trip series on Wii Ware.

Yeah, I should've posted this in Off-Topic. Sorry folks.

Anyway, thanks for the Pinball Hall of Fame suggestion. I'll definitely check it out!

As off topic as it is,

Thumbs up for mentioning Okami, It's really awesome and worth a shot =D

DDO for Wii sounds great, but after 30 mins on a Sorc, an angry downstairs neighbour pats you on the back and kindly asks you to replace the floor and his lamps that keeps falling down. Although it would be one hell of a workout.

Playing healer in a raid would be like watching someone train arms for crawl swimming for 30mins :)

Imagine how exhausted you'd be after Coal Chamber :D

Ooh, and don't forget Silent Hill: Shattered Memories... the most s***bricks game ever made... full of plot twists, a great selection of voice actors, and many elements from the theatrical arts (such as the use of a False Protagonist ) ... coupled with the BEST graphics ever seen on a Wii game, Plus the game also adapts to the player's psych profile, providing a unique experience each playthrough.

If I could play DDO on a wii I'd never have to go to the gym again...

And I may well end up in the best shap of my life.

Once we get home holodecks, gamer nerds will be the most athletic people on the planet. I've got a room all picked out for mine already.
