That's so cool, Chris! I'm usually pretty anti-video game, but I love the Wii too. It's been a cool activity for my husband and I to do with each other, with our children and our parents and our children to do with their grandparents!

My wife's Grandpa (in his late 80's) really enjoys Golf and Bowling from Wii Play which comes with the Wii. Her father (in his mid 50's) is a big fan of mario kart racing and her mom (in her late 50's) likes Wii Fit balancing and jogging.

I have to admit I like them all and my 3 year old daughter will drive the mario kart car around in circles until we can't stand it any longer.

I love the fact that the Wii can be fun for four generations. What an amazing system!

I never thought I'd be starting this discussion, but does anyone else's parents have a Wii that they use to keep active? We got one for Christmas and my mom LOVES it! She's convinced my dad, who is extremely sedentary, they need one for their house.

Now I just need to figure out which games to get for them. Does anyone have suggestions? Mom loves the bowling game and is intrigued by our Wii Fit board. I think they would be most interested in sporting type games rather than story driven ones like Mario Galaxy. We only have a few games, half of which are story driven. I'd love some recommendations!
