Company xmas party was at my home (family business and all) and two of my associates who work from their locations were there for it.
I overheard both of them saying, after playing the Wii, the EXACT same things I've been saying about it: "I haven't been interested in any of the consoles since the N64, but this is different.", "This feels like it could really get me up off the couch and get me moving.", etc.
We should be JUST about ready for round 2 of Wii reactions from family, friends, etc.
So let's hear 'em...

Nah, I was just kidding. I already said that I was done being bitter about not finding a Wii and moving on. I decided to do the NWR joke after I made mention of the alternate dimension.

My aunt told me it was worth waiting out overnight for, and my cousin is so hooked that she plans to harass her boyfriend into buying one (aren't boyfriends convenient?) He'll probably be glad to oblige, but if not I wouldn't be surprised if she buys one herself.
My grandparents tried it but couldn't get the hang of the buttons. I find it amazing how hard the buttons are for older folks...not to insult them, it's just really interesting to see how using the button to let go of the bowling ball is 100% foreign to people who don't play video games. They did catch on a bit, but they weren't that into it. My grandad was paranoid about the game "cheating" him. Still, it's more than they've played any of my other systems.
A friend of mine who played a bit also requested that I bring it if I go to his New Year's party.

Oh and shame about the Precious Moments figurines remind me to hide mine if you ever come over.
