I have to say, I thought I could wait until the summer or next Fall to buy a Wii, but after playing it at a friend&#8217;s house last night, I&#8217;m really starting to get the itch! <\/p>\n<p>Adam bought me a Nintendo DS Lite for the holidays, so hopefully that will help me hold out for a while on the Wii. The DS Lite is really fun and a great tool for boring airplane rides or waiting in line. And for those of us who grew up with the first-gen nintendos and are used to the less complicated game controllers, this is a great blast from the past. They even have a lot of fun old games, like Super Mario Brothers and Tetris! I hear the Wii also plays lots of the classic games.<\/p>\n<p>For a long time I didn&#8217;t play much of anything videogame-wise. I found them too complicated and I could never control all of the different buttons on modern controllers. I&#8217;m glad to see that Nintendo is going back to its roots and are making games (and systems) that are simple, engaging and fun! I think they will find a good market for these in those of us in our 20&#8217;s and 30&#8217;s who may have stopped playing video games but pined for the classic NES.<br \/>\n<br clear=\"all\" \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Nintendo Wii: Meredith&#8217;s Mii Originally uploaded by SirStan.
