Wii, what??

Imagine two grown up guys, having just been at work all day and now ready for a quiet night in front of the telly. Imagine them not sitting still chilling out, but rather boxing like crazy with two white remotes in their hands. Ducking, hitting an upper-cut, round-punch, knock-out - OUCH!! Yep, that's appearantly what the new Nintendo (?) Wii play console will do with your flatmates. William and Kristoffer were testing out Wii last night and the boxing match just looked ridiculous. For Kristin and me it sure was more fun watching them than the actual game. Anyway, this interactive (can't believe I actually write about computer-games) game really wants you to participate but when I later beat William at both tennis and bowling, the two sports I definitively suck the most at, I realized it just ain't realistic, nevertheless, made up for ten minutes of kinda fun on an otherwise quiet Wednesday evening.

You gotta love the warning at the start of the game "Please make sure there are no people or objects around you that you can bump into." What is this? Subliminal exercise-messages? Actually sponsored by the Heart&Lung-foundation? Maybe even McDonalds? You never know in these times when even sushi at a London restaurant will knock you off your feet.

December 1st tomorrow! Better wrap the calendar-pressies.
