At funerals. The Wiimote could be used to shovel virtual dirt and draw crosses!

Yeah, this stuff sounds crazy, but my mom actually played and enjoyed a game for the first time since Jaws for the NES in 1988....Resident Evil: Umbrella Chronicles. Me and my bro jokingly asked her on vacation if she wanted to play and she actually did. Then she wanted to play a second level. Then the next day her and her friend's son-in-law(he's early 20's) played a few levels while me and my brother laughed our rears off. That makes 3 games in her life that she liked: Frogger, Jaws, and Umbrella Chronicles. Go figure.

Obligatory. Isn't it a bit early to call the PS3 and XBox360 dead?

I Blame Wii Fit!

Whoops didn't intend a blank post.

My dad is still trying to find a Wii and complains about it. I would buy one for him, but I want him to work for it. Since I purchased a DC for him and he tired of it quickly I'm not going to make the same mistake again.
