Wii Pains

So now we have a Wii. Not sure if I'm going to get rich anymore because of it. It's a good workout. The boxing and all of that. So far I haven't had any luck with the racing game. It's too hard to control I think. Maybe it's my driving skills.

So one thing about the Wii is you can buy old games and play them. Like the original Zelda from the first Nintendo. It's a real flashback. I played it all the time back ... 17 or 18 years ago. So it's really amazing like how much of it is coming back to me when I'm playing it again. One thing I find about some of the newer 3D games is that ... while I can see how the world can be really immersive I also find that they are sort of... It's hard to know what you're even supposed to be doing a lot of the time. But with the old school games you're always moving toward something. I think in that way they retain their playability better. Because i find this original Zelda game still quite enjoyable. I don't know if I could even get into playing the new Zelda as it would just be too much time to put into it, just to figure out how to do the basic stuff. I guess that's good for people who want to spend all day playing video games, but I don't. I really just want it as something to do every once in awhile. I'm worried that it's a bit addictive. In fact now, instead of doing all of the things I need to do, I kind of want to play it.
