I'll give The Godfather: Blackhand Edition a glowing endorsement as a Wii title, and here's why: My wife would occasionally watch and kibitz when I played GTA: Vice City, but she never showed any interest in picking up the controller. But she achieved "Don of NYC" before I did on the Wii Godfather game. Never underestimate the Wii's fundamental appeal to the uninitiated: doing something with your hands beats pressing buttons. I'm thinking about picking up Mortal Kombat: Armageddon when it comes out -- I'm not a big fan of fighting games historically, but the motion controls may be calling me to battle.
