Wii are stimulating the economy.
My job is recession-proof. Trevor's is somewhat insulated by the fact that he works for his father. Seriously, the fact that I went out and spent a bunch of money this week is good for the economy. I'm not just using that as a thin justification. I'm not going to go accuruing a lot of debt or stop putting money into savings, but if I've got some disposable income, and most people don't right now, then it actually helps if I spend it. Plus the Wii is sweet.
Wii are considering quitting the gym and buying Wii Fit.
Seriously. We just looked into what it would take to quit 24-Hour Fitness because we never go, and it turns out it's this horrible process and they're notorious for charging people even after they've quit and you can't get a freeze on your account unless 1) you have a doctor's note stating that you're too sick to work out, 2) you've been sent overseas for the military, or 3) you have a letter from your employer on company letterhead stating that you are being moved for work to a location at least 25 miles away from a 24-Hour Fitness. After reading that, I want to quit just on principle! Plus Wren and Daryl have Wii Fit and they say it's great and I think my young video game loving mind would really enjoy working out in my own living room with video games rather than driving to the gym and feeling awkward for 45 minutes.
Wii kick ass at Wii Sports.
And by Wii I mean Mii. Having never played anything on the Wii before, I kicked Trevor's ass at Bowling and Boxing. I have no idea how. But I like it! He was up last night after I went to bed just training at Wii Bowling. I think this could be the start of a lot of quality time together. Either that or a huge rivalry.
