Wii retirement

It's long been known that Wii is a hit with the oldies. Now Erickson Retirement Communities based in Baltimore will be setting up Wii consoles in eighteen of their campuses. This will give 19,000 seniors a chance to try it out.

My grandmother takes care of an elderly man of 80 in his house every week. She said that he was watching TV once and a Wii commercial came on. He said "Wow that really looks like a lot of fun!". True story.

That's freaking awesome. To get the seniors of this country (and this world) involved in video games. Who would've thought it possible that Grandma and Grandpa would buy a video game console - FOR THEMSELVES!
