My advice--from one monkey mama to another--is to have your kids help earn the money for it if they just HAVE to have it. You'll get some good work out of them, and then you'll get to play it (because it really is pretty fun)!Mickelmonkey Mamahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15874164284780116058noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35926127.post-21778287171088248352008-08-15T09:02:00.000-06:002008-08-15T09:02:00.000-06:00Well isn't that just fan-freakin-tastic!

It came with 14 games (probably not your choice) and a controller. She could be exagerating but it still sounds better than $400. Happy Shopping! Oh, I know, have mom find you a "deal"!<BR/><BR/><BR/>P.S. Brian,<BR/>A, B, C, 1, 2, 3. I know they do it different in Tremonton but it's going to be ok. <BR/><BR/>PPS. Let me reset your earring. Sorry I wasn't there when you came in but we could sure come up with something sweet for someone for Christmas:)Kristenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03514659325777033918noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35926127.post-7710770863538528302008-08-15T08:53:00.000-06:002008-08-15T08:53:00.000-06:00How do you think I lost so much weight so quickly?...How do you think I lost so much weight so quickly? Wii Fit is so dang addicting that I can't help but work out once I get started! Okay, Carter LOVES boxing on the Wii. My 2-year-old is frighteningly good at hitting people in a video game. It tires him out before bed, though...<BR/><BR/>But Shane and I are really the ones who get the most from it. Best purchase ever. We use it every day and enjoy spending that time together that we would otherwise probably have spent on separate computers or watching TV. We have stayed up too late many nights together because of it! SO FUN.Shane, Meg, CJ, RJ, and ALhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13306917980548196863noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35926127.post-53975110797250181122008-08-14T15:02:00.000-06:002008-08-14T15:02:00.000-06:00We bought one.

Smells like something is burning...maybe the kids are not really sleeping.<BR/>BTW...you can get one for $300. Wouldn't want you to spend too much.

Mario Kart is super super super fun! And might I add very addicting! Then after Simon goes to bed Cody and I have a tennis match or two! Great fun!

Gaining self-mastery is one of the prime reasons we were sent to earth.<BR/><BR/>Secondly, you don't need a #$%&! Wii (until we get one).<BR/><BR/>Thirdly, swearing doesn't make you look smarter. It is a way of crying out for attention. You don't need that. Steven cries enough for the both of you.<BR/><BR/>D. Your house is fine.<BR/><BR/>And E. I have a feeling that Emmy is somewhere in your house whispering swear words, trying to keep up with her mother. Her mother, of all things.<BR/><BR/>Oh, and sixthly, why doesn't John comment anymore.

We actually have one-we bought it like a year ago when you couldn't buy one anywhere. Sadly, I must say that I totally love it-and so does my three year old!! Sometimes Connor and I go downstairs and just play together for a while! So if you want to keep up with me (wink, wink) you better buy one!! But seriously-justify the purchase by buying Wii Fit and call it your exercise equipment-that you will actually use!!<BR/>BTW, Hi! We haven't talked in a while!!

Won the XBox in a drawing, got a Wii as a bonus at work, and ended up purchasing a PS3 at a $100 discount because I wanted a Blu-Ray player.<BR/><BR/>That said, the Wii is by far my favorite for the kids. It's the cheapest at $250 if you can find one, and it gets the kids up and moving while they play.<BR/><BR/>-- Mr. JonesRandyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01495592994354028453noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35926127.post-56776528494973611652008-08-13T17:41:00.000-06:002008-08-13T17:41:00.000-06:00if you decide to get one, make sure and get some o...if you decide to get one, make sure and get some of these games <BR/><BR><BR/>wii play (it has a few mini games and comes with a controller)<BR/><BR>Super Monkey Ball, best game value IMHO, it has 50 mini games that are perfect for any age<BR/><BR><BR/>Mario Kart <BR/><BR><BR/>Mario Galaxy <BR/><BR><BR/>Smash Brothers (great fighting game but not really violent)<BR/><BR><BR/>And remember to let your kids have a turn too :)Truman Jensenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05534623753453483065noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35926127.post-31475938064502495862008-08-13T17:27:00.000-06:002008-08-13T17:27:00.000-06:00I always hoped we'd be the hang-out house, too.

But now that there are ALWAYS other people's kids at my house I try to devise ways to make them go home. :) I'm totally not as cool as I thought I would be. (Of course I'm also about 35 weeks pregnant. Maybe I'll get my groove back once I'm not constantly being kicked from the inside.)<BR/><BR/>That said, I would LOVE to have a Wii.Jessihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02610638710477433590noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35926127.post-14788131314564706142008-08-13T17:22:00.000-06:002008-08-13T17:22:00.000-06:00A few things, first of all-buy the wii.

Not so your kids will fit in, but just because it is so stinkin' fun. <BR/><BR/>You can justify it by saying you are buying it for 'family time.'<BR/><BR/>And second, my house was the house where all of my friends hung out. And my parents never even bought a nintendo.Hayleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01660752681049132173noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35926127.post-90188566319480004452008-08-13T17:07:00.000-06:002008-08-13T17:07:00.000-06:00Sadey's eyes just buldged out of her head.
