Wiiiii!
The Nintendo store in Rockefeller Center has some Wiis set up for people to try out. They’re all running the sports disk, which has several different games on it - I saw golf, and I think baseball, and tennis, which is what I played a game of.
Oh, this is so cool! The Wii controller, as some of you may not have yet heard, is cordless, and shaped like a TV remote. It has buttons on it, but for the tennis game you don’t use those for gameplay, just setup. For actually playing, you just swing the thing like a tennis racquet. Since I was playing standing up, I actually moved my body around to set up forehand and backhand swings. It was a full-body videogame experience!
The Wii goes on sale Sunday, but go try it out now for free.
