It's good exercise. The Japanese did a smart thing. Wii should be America's best seller. Chuck Norris should advertise it in a fitness ad.

Zombie@computer, why did you just copy my entire post lol! You coulda just copied the 400mph section...but anyways, 400mph is top speed, and when they blended the remote, it apparently reached 350 summit... :-D

Anyway, I don't think that the Wii is a danger to people. I think it's the other way around, people need to handle it with better care perhaps and stop jumping around like idiots.
I hope that one day this space is filled with a nice looking screenshot of a map I have made, but until then ...

screw that, chuck norris should should release a game where he is a main npc, and you (the player) fight along side him, utilizing kung fu moves and big machine guns, (but don't make it suck like red steel). can i hear 'Delta Force: Wii Don't Negotiate'

i would go out and buy a wii TODAY, if that were available.

If you are rough with things, then I don't think you should get one.

But If you aren't, I'd recommend one, they are great fun.

Wii Sports got my Granny, Mum and Dad into Video games, while nothing else could!
