Retirement community holds a Wii bowling tournament

Hello there! If you are new here, you might want to subscribe to the RSS feed for updates on this topic.

The blog Popcandy has a great article about a retirement community is holding Wii Bowling tournaments! (hit the link for video of the fun too) The Wii is amazing, and it’s becoming the revolution it promised to be. This has to be my favorite story I’ve read in a long time, and it hits home. My Mom who is 65 came over add had a blast playing, so much so that she wants one for her own. The poster that said this should have happened a long time ago said a mouthful; game companies trying to out-GTA each other have left out a huge section of people and created the ‘non-gamer’ group themselves. Now Nintendo picks them up! So my kids (4 and 6 1/2), my Wife, my Mom, mii (of course) are having so much fun with this. “A retirement community engaged in a Wii bowling tournament. The seniors got hooked during the holidays, when they sampled gifts residents were giving their grandchildren. Some retirees stayed up late at night playing Nintendo games, and a tournament soon followed: Residents at Sedgebrook, an Erickson community in the Chicago area, gathered for a bowling tournament recently. Find out how much fun they had playing ‘their granchildren’s game’ and discover who won for high score and high series.“

That's so funny and interesting! It's a good thing to see old people having fun with new things. I know my grandparents are at some assisted living facilities Lancaster Pennsylvania and they're having fun like old ones. Maybe they'll have games like this one soon.
