Time out both of you. If you keep it up you'll get no juice at lunch.
anyway, we are not a family of gamers, either. I like the old school graphics. We have PS2 and Wii and maybe 10 games between the two. The Wii is fun if you have time to play it. The tennis game was amusing until LL figured out he could totally screw me by barely moving his controller thus preventing me from ever having the chance to actually hit the ball. Same with baseball. that family laughed for quite awhile at the Wii fit stuff but then it lost it's novelty. In all honesty I probably would veto Mrs L's purchase if I had to do it again.
What I don't like is the Wiimotes aren't set up to just respond exactly with your motions. Example: In the Star Wars game you use a Wiimote to fight with your lightsaber. Seems pretty straightforward, right? You're using a Wiimote in place of a lightsaber so your actions should match what you seen on the screen. Unfortunately you have to learn a complex set of twitches, turns, and button pushing combinations to actually do anything. It is just like having a normal controller, but less intuitive.
All that being said, the bowling, baseball, tennis, golf, and Wii Fit functions can be a lot of fun.
