Default Does any adult think they look cool using a Wii?

i have seen the ad's and watched people using them - kids can look cute or amusing using them and nothing wrong with that.

Adults - get a grip - most look like they have special needs or nevous twitches and those inane grins....

Really now;
it is not cool for adults to use them, you look like *****



Hear me now - give it up and get out more in 2009

Its like drinking through a straw, No one, not even Norris himself can look hard drinking through a straw.
No adult can look any more than an embarrasing uncle playing wii. But isnt that one of the bonuses of getting older.... You just dont care anymore.

It is an observation and not an argument - there is a big difference...maybe you should check out the definitions in a dictionary when you get a chance

i have to agree that there is a certain amount of looking like a **** whilst playing to Wii. I actually think it is made worse by those stupid adverts with the whole family, grandparents and all playing along. I really really hate the one were they are playing instruments, its just so ****e! Why would u do that to yourself?

There is only one **** on this thread

And by the way making a statement that may be contended is an argument.

To answer the question - no, and I don't care whether I do or don't look cool.

I really left behind the argument, look cool or have fun, years ago to the teenagers on the street corner. I now prefer to enjoy what I do and if playing the WII with my kids makes me look like a dick, then so be it, they think Dad is the best ever WII player and that counts a lot more to me.

I've no doubt when they become teens I will be uncool in their eye's whatever I do, but you know what, I just don't care :-)
