Wii Fit is a hit in the Klau house
Image via Wikipedia
Thanks to Naperville buddy “Mike Marusin”:http://www.marusin.com/, we’re the proud owners of a new Wii Fit. We hooked it up last night, and I have to say: big win. The yoga is surprisingly effective - this coming from a guy who would never even imagine trying yoga. (I guess if they could find a [...]
Guitar Hero for the Wii rocks
No, I won’t win any awards for most creative post title. Sue me. I picked up “Guitar Hero for the Wii”:http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000TGB4UU?ie=UTF8&tag=tins-20&linkCode=as2&camp=1789&creative=9325&creativeASIN=B000TGB4UU today while we were out running errands, and I had more fun playing this game than any game on the Wii to date. Best of all, it supports online play, so those of you [...]
Mom will be so proud
Yesterday’s post “debunking the claims of rampant pornography on the Wii”:http://www.rklau.com/tins/archives/2007/01/11/wii_-_gateway_for_porn.php got picked up in today’s New York Times blog “The Lede”:http://thelede.blogs.nytimes.com/2007/01/12/modern-game-consoles-glorified-sex-machines/ (courtesy of a “follow-up post at Techdirt”:http://www.techdirt.com/articles/20070111/183322.shtml - thanks, Mike!).
At least I’m a “techspert”!
Wii - gateway for porn?
Wow, I guess it’s come to this: seen “over at TechDirt”:http://www.techdirt.com/articles/20070109/094639.shtml was the alarmist report at WFAA-TV in Dallas that the Wii console “can be a gateway for porn”:http://www.wfaa.com/sharedcontent/dws/wfaa/latestnews/stories/wfaa07018_wz_wiiporn.2073d3ef.html. Here’s the logic: the Wii has the ability to connect to a home network through its wireless Internet connectivity. Furthermore, the Wii has a web browser [...]
Wii friend code
No thanks to the many technical tools I used to try and find a Wii, we happened to get one last week when Robin got a call from a neighbor who fortuitously bought one from a Toys R Us employee with loose lips. (The neighbor overheard the clerk offer to sell one to a [...]
Wii are nerds
“Mike”:http://www.marusin.com/ brought his Wii over tonight, and “Henry”:http://htsblog.blogspot.com, “Kris”:http://www.croncast.com/ and I had far too much fun boxing and bowling. It’s every bit as good as advertised.
Word of warning: Don’t box Kris Smith. I don’t know what mojo he exercises over the nunchuck controller, but it’s wicked. He can’t be beaten.
