Advantages: Very unique and fun

Disadvantages: Novelty fades a little

We purchased our Wii about 14 months ago. Neither of us are big gamers, but didnt really see this as a gaming console but as something very unique - which it most definatly is!

I have to admit i had never tried one when we bought ours i had never played on one or even watched anyone on one - it was very much a whimsical impulse buy - but as it happens a good one!

We started off with just the Wii sports and Mario and Sonic olympics- both of which were great fun!

Like many new toys for the first few weeks we were on it every day, calculating our Wii Sports Age etc, and every time we had a few hours free were putting on the Mario and Sonic game and competing against each other - but i have to say to SOME extent the novelty did wear off.

Its still a great fun console and we do get it out every few weeks and have a play - but the every day obsession soon wears off!

If you pick the right games they work very well - and the fun ones seem to be the best designed.

A good fun and interactive experience for the whole family!

Summary: Very family orientated!
