I Love – Family Game Night Edition

I love the Wii Sports Resort game with the Motion Plus accessory! And I LOVE LOVE playing these games with my family!

Wii Sports Resort is one of the newer Wii games and it features an array of games that you can play using your Mii. You can compete in Swordplay (personal fav), Wakeboarding (I am the high scorer bitches), Frisbee, Archery, Basketball, Table Tennis, Golf, Bowling, Power Cruising, Canoeing (can be dangerous, move cups out of the way), Cycling, Air Sports and as you play you can unlock different variations of all these games.

The newest addition to the Wii world is the Wii MotionPlus accessory. “It connects to your Wii Remote, and the accessory's additional sensors respond to the slightest motion of your wrist, allowing your most subtle movements to deliver impressive results on screen.” Basically, it makes the Wii even MORE realistic than before and more games (like Tiger Woods Golf 2010) have this new feature.

A month or so ago our parents got us this game and this past weekend, my parents came up to visit and surprised us with a couple more motion plus accessories for our Wii Remotes and made it known that some Wii Resort playing would be going down this weekend. Saturday night we got our Wii on till after 1:30 am, and let me tell you – it was a BLAST! I love playing these games with my family and we all get into the game (though they may say I am the most competitive) and we just laugh a lot and have a fantastic time together!

I seriously recommend this game, it is my new favorite Wii game. The game is $49.95 and comes with one Wii MotionPlus. You will need to buy at least one more to play against people, they are $19.95.


Tip: ALWAYS wear your Wii remote secured tightly around your wrist when you play ALL these games. Also, make sure there are no glasses of water around you (oops, my bad), and make sure you are more than arms length away from people or anything breakable. Oh, and stretch before playing to avoid any Wii-njuries that may occur.

Out of Curiosity….

Is it bad that when I was driving into work today I wanted to speed pass the other drivers, fire mushroom shells at them to blow them out of my way, lay banana peels down behind me, and find a star so I was indestructible?!?!

Hmmm…..it has just come to my attention that I may have played too much Mario Kart this weekend.

Totally Awesome Moment of The Day

Todays Totally Awesome Moment of The Day goes to ....

My Parents!!

Reason:
Today I got a voicemail from my dad informing me that they were the proud owners of a Nintendo Wii! Yep, my parents got their very own Wii - AWESOME.

Mom & Dad, I would like to say that there are a few rules you need to keep in mind:

1. All work must be done before you play Wii.
2. No Wii during dinner time. (sub rule: you must finish your dinner if you want to play Wii)
3. All chores must be done for the day before you play with your game.
4. You can take your Wii games to your friends house but do not let them borrow your games because if they brake it or lose it, it is gone forever.
5. This game is for fun and a privilege...do not abuse this and spend all your time on it.
6. Play nice with each other, no fighting....if you do NO Wii.
7. When playing Wii make sure you wear the remote tightly around your wrist. If it flys off and you brake that TV you are buying a new one - with your own money.
8. When it is time to put the Wii away - put it away. No "Just 5 more minutes" will be allowed.


This Totally Awesome Moment of The Day was brought to you by Nintendo Wii - A play system for people of ALL ages! :)

One of those days...

This is rare, but today is a two-cup of coffee day. I am DRAGGING.

Why, well b/c T & I were up with some friends late last night playing wii. We started around 6:30p.m. and at 1:30a.m. my husband was still playing wii with a couple of our friends.

We also had a wii bowling tournament (I know – we are dorks) and we will be making it a bi-weekly thing, kinda like our own wii league (I know – we are REALLY dorks).

Oh wii - how you make our day fly by like it was non-existent.

Don't mess with these mad skillz!

So this weekend I played me some Skii ball (From Game Party) on my Wii and I just needed to brag about my high score!

So the total you can get on skii ball is 900, well your truly got a score of.....

810!!!

Can you believe it?!?! That means I made the ball into the 100 point hole 8 times and missed once thus giving me 10pts. I am working on a perfectly unbeatable score of 900!

Of course some may think this only means I have been spending too much time playing Wii and I should instead be doing something more productive with my time. To those people I just say you are jealous of these skillz!!

(Please note, I am not arrogant...just kidding and proud of my score!!! haha)
