To answer your question, yes, the Wii controls are a lot different than anything else I've ever played. In many cases you're using your whole body. Playing with the Wii is definitely not a sedentary activity.
The Wii looks so fun! I bet even my parents would have fun playing it with their grandchildren. I've heard that people are actually including the Wii in their exercise routine and loosing weight from playing it!! Lord know i could lose a couple inches.

We more or less stopped buying video games once we picked up the second console and just rent everything from gamefly.com. They're just like netflix but instead of movies, you rent video games. ...We set up the account with parental controls so the kids can't get their hands on the mature stuff which is another nice feature if the kids want to get online and pick stuff out.
Gamefly sounds like a fantastic idea! We have a stack of games that never get played. We tried renting from our local store but never got them back in time and the late fees add up. How long can you have the game with gamefly? The parent feature sounds nice, it would be great if the kids could pick out the games they want on their own and I wouldn't have to worry about what they're getting.

Wow! I'm really learning a lot thanks to you! Have you played any Final Fantasy? I also like the driving games like Grand Tourismo and Burnout. What's your favorite game for the Wii?
