[QUOTE=Boomer BeBack;113781]Mr. Boomer and I were talking about buying a wii, but, in truth, we have no idea what we are talking about.

A discussion started on here somewhere awhile back. And yesterday when I was squinting at the "Daily Sun" recreation section online, I saw that somebody wants to start a club. So I thought maybe I could find some answers to my wii questions here on TOTV.

So here goes:

Can we count playing with a wii as exercise of any significant amount? - or hey, even semi-significant would be better than what we have been doing all winter.

And, does this thing hold any promise of helping to improve hand-eye coordination? (mine -Mr. B is coordinated.)

-or could we at least hope to collapse into a heap of laughter while trying to play?

So if anybody out there can help us with our decision on whether or not to buy a wii, we would truly appreciate the advice.

My wife and I purchased a Wii Console, Wii Fit, and Mario Kart about a month ago. I've been using the Fit for daily exercise and conditioning and we've enjoyed playing golf, bowling, tennis, and boxing with our friends. Heaps of laughter aplenty. If you want improved hand-eye coordination, any of the Wii Sports games will help you improve as well as the Mario Kart racing game.

You'll love it! Go for it.
