Seems like the term "Wii" is becoming as common as people referring to video games as "nintendo" in the late 80's, early 90's. Just yesterday I was washing/waxing my car when a lady walked up the driveway to talk to me about the house for sale next door to me. She was a realtor. We talked for a while and when she started to leave she said "I've got to get back home.. I have a Wii Tennis tournament tonight! Do you have a Wii?" Woah. I was shocked. A 40-something year old lady randomly walks up my driveway and talks about the Wii. So, we chatted about the Wii for a few more minutes and she (and her family) love it (especially Wii Sports). And this past Christmas season, I was sitting in church and the pastor referred to the Wii in his sermon. ... OOookay. So here is a 65 year old man, clergy, talking about the Wii in a church service. I'll be the first to admit I never thought the term "Wii" would ever be used by anyone but gamers in some form of joke-telling/punchline. It's amazing to see how the Big-N really turned their position around on the market place and have once again become the commonly thought of name in gaming.

Listen to the prophet, JL!, he all predicted this, and beyond this it will go.

What did the pastor say about it?

"Wii. The console Jesus would use."

your not wrong I was texting my mate the other day asking for meeting details and my text changed it to "where are Wii meeting again?"

your pastor was just trying to be hip and cool by relating to you and get you to smoke cigarettes. my pastor does the same thing all the time.
