It's so weird when that happens. During the Wii boom my parents visited for Christmas. I got them into Mario Kart and on Christmas Eve I cooked for the family. When done, I had to repeatedly encourage my parents to please stop playing Mario Kart and join my wife and me for Christmas dinner before the food gets cold. Very strange to experience this in reverse, as I still had vivid memories of my parents trying to pull me away from Link's Awakening on my GameBoy many Christmases earlier.


My dad got tennis elbow from Wii Tennis.


I didn't get tennis elbow but I did overdo it a bit on a couple of Wii tennis games for a time. I haven't used my Wii in ages but would love a version of some of the Wii sports with more modern technology on a current console.
