Staring the spring purge early.
Came across our Wii and stuff.
I will have to see if I remember how to set it up (I know...get the instruction manual).

Yes, we occasionally use it. Golf, Bowling, baseball, and tennis mostly. But somehow lost the snap on accessories.

We still play it on a occasion. We started playing with our grandkids years ago when they wanted a sure win. Then we practiced and started to beat them. We heard “you are supposed to lose!” . Never was very good at building their self esteem by giving them false accomplishments.

Our daughter took it to her apartment in Boston. Her and her boyfriend (or is the correct term significant other these days) use it frequently.

We had a Wii for a while several years ago but it required an analog input into the TV. Nearly all new TVs exclusively use HDMI for inputs so unless they've updated this very dated video game system or unless you find some kind of analog-to-HDMI converter for a reasonable price, you may not find many new TVs capable of using your Wii.

I think you may have hit upon the one club that DOESN'T exist in TV :icon_wink:

Yet!

Yes, pulled our Wii out a few years ago and used Wii Fit almost daily during the worse part of the pandemic when we stopped going to the gym. It was a great way to stay active (sort of) and track our weight. Unfortunately, our remotes quit working a few months ago.
