For a while, my mom was pretty addicted to Wii Sports: Bowling. But, she hasn't played it in a long while.

my mom plays quite a bit. i moved out long ago, but she has her own Wii. She's beaten LoZ and Mario Galaxy, she has de Blob, which she is working on now, and is hooked on Animal Crossing.

She's going to visit my sister in Toronto soon, but didn't want her town in AC to go to pot, so she convinced my dad to create a character so that he could pop in and do the maintenance. yup, she's into it THAT much.

My dad isn't much into the Wii. he prefers his PC (he also works a ton).

Both of my parents like Wii Sports and Mario Kart. Except they can barely tolerate the circuit maps in Mario Kart, let alone the trick maps. My dad wants me to get him a "real" racing game for his birthday.

Well my mom tried Wii bowling the day after I bought my Wii. Now I'm the only one using it. I suspect that when my dad comes home from the Middle East (not military, he's a sort of contract worker) he'll play it too. He'll probably even play it when I'm not around.

My dad plays the Wii more than my mom, but they've both played WiiSports, Mario Kart Wii, and SSB Brawl. I even got my 69 year old grandmother to bowl with us. It was hilarious when she got a 207 on her first round, she was so happy.

I just couldn't believe it when my parents bought theirs! They're not using it as much as I would but we always have our weekly Bowling game on Saturday nights.

Everyone that I know play Wii *lol. I've got most of the consoles (sega, nintendo, xbox, playstation and so on) that have come out and no one but my friends have played with me until I got the Wii. Now everyone is playing, even my parent that hate video games *lol.

Two days ago I had a friend and his little girl of 5 years old over for dinner and we played Wii all evening and she even beat me in bowling :(

At Christmas I brought my Wii and Wii balance board to my girlfriends parents (she brought it, since she use it till 95%). Even my girlfriends father, that´s well over 70 years old and can't walk without a walking aid (I think that the name for it), tryed the Wii. He played Skii on the Wii Fit and my girl friend put the walking aid infront of the wii board and her father were standing on the wii board and using his walking aid as support. I thought of getting the camera at video record it and then put it on You Tube but I didn't.

Yeasterday when I were at a massage therapist (busted my back when I did the "hula hula" on the wii board), he asked me what I worked with and I said

-"I make video games",he replied

-"well I hope it's not violent video games", and I said -"weeeeelll, not that violent :P" and I started to talk about the Wii to get him on other thoughts, and he said

-"well that's not a video game, that's entertainment", and I thought

-"hmm, manybe that's why so many "new people" that never played game before likes to play the Wii. They dont' see it as a "video game" they see it as entertainment :)

Both my parents love their Wii Fit. We used to play Wii Sports a ton but I lost the disc...oh well. I got my mom to play Rock Band 2 once, Ramblin Man on Easy, no fail. I'm on expert on every instrument but I am currently suspended from rythym games due to a heavy addiction. I have World of Goo which my dad loves, he doesn't get to play it too too much but maybe every day, give or take a day or two, for maybe fifteen minutes and I think he's on the second chapter. My mom loves Zelda for some reason (she doesn't play, but she finds it better than listening to the Shackler's Revenge solo every 10 minutes) One of my brothers has beaten both Wind Waker and Twilight Princess about 3/4 of the way through. He is in his 20s though and has a job working 60-70 hours a week so he has lost interest in the Wii, just takes the old PS2 out to work so he can play when he's on night watch. Inb4toolongpost :D

That's how it is with my mom. She hates video games pretty much. My dad is all about them, he plays it whenever he isn't doing something else.
