Today I left for school knowing that when I arrived home there would be a Wii waiting for me.
My Dad was working from home that day so he could sign for it when it was delivered.
Anyway, when school let out I practically ran home and burst in the door to find this:
I snapped a few photos during setup
Anyway, I started up the Wii and completed the obligatory time/date setup and got my first feel of what the Wii was actually like. The pointing function, I found, was extremely responsive and accurate.
Once that was done it was time to name my Wii using the onscreen keyboard, which was also extremely easy to use with the pointer functionality. Anyway, having proceeded to name my Wii in the cheesiest name I could think of (Wiilbert) I arrived at the channel screen.
I popped Wii Sports in and loaded it up, selecting Tennis to play.
It was incredibly simple to use. Just tap A and the Mii flips the ball up then you swing your arm just like in real tennis. I assume most of you have read about this but until you actually play a Wii you don't know just how good it actually is.
I attempted to put backspin on a shot by twisting my wrist as a swung and the ball went spinning off with clear backspin.
It. Is. Awesome.
Anyway, Wiilbert is packed away until Christmas morning, for which I cannot wait
I would have taken more pictures but... I kinda forgot in all the exitement
