6. Kinda. I had to give up boxing.
Wii Golf has proven to be the easiest on my body.

8. I've that feeling after doing Wii boxing or bowling...
I need to play those much more often.

I'm just glad they don't have any x-rated games for the Wii... (Which is a sick thought, but some sicko, not me, developed a couple for the Atari 2600, proving anything insane is possible...)

16. I happened to read about those on Wiki just yesterday
I had read a reference to the "video game crash of 1983" and decided to look it up, since I'd never heard it put that way before. The article mentioned three of the all-time worst games--all of them X-rated and all of them produced (without a license) for the 2600. They were produced by Mystique, and in addition to being offensively puerile, they were really poorly designed, too.

Oddly, I seem to recall a sixth-grade classmate describing one of the games, but none of us believed his claim that it existed.

11. The first night I played Wii
last Christmas, my daughter and I stayed up all night playing bowling. We went to Pensacola the next day for lunch, and I could barely make the hard turns.

12. DuStrange has it, but not from playing with a Wii
Unless "Wii" is a euphemism.

17. hahaha, we were in a Best Buy looking at stuff over x-mas, and I found hubby at the Wii display...
playing tennis with some little anime looking guy, hubby was a anime guy too. But he lost his match, lost two, and so we went to leave...half way to the door, hubby turned around starts heading back. I ask if he forgot something. He says, "That little punk's not going to get away with it; he's going down after all!" So we go back and hubby wins a couple matches. Wouldn't leave till he figured out the mechanics of it (my dude also considers backgammon a bloodsport x(). Then his anime dude does a little dance, it's pretty cool. We're picking up a Wii deck for the g-kids :thumbsup:

20. I actually gave myself tendonitis in my wrist from tennis. Had to wear a brace for
a week. It was terribly painful. I'm much more careful now.
