Wii may not be the most successful gaming platform now, but by god it made some pretty happy memories.
The late night launch, going round various Asda stores to see if they had any left, returning empty handed, popping in to indies on the off chance.
The heightened heartbeat when the gf calls to say she is in Tesco and they have just put them on the shelf - should she get one? Fucking right you better!
Heading home to play it that night near christmas, setting it up after a works night out and playing for 10 minutes before crashing out. Getting up early on my first day off to play tennis in my pants ALL DAY
Taking it to the parents over christmas and having it feel like i was wee again and it was my main big santa present of the year. Delightful - thanks Nintendo.
It certainly is the game i would consider getting a DS for - been playing on the one i got my GF for her birthday. Got her PL CV for her next birthday too so technically its mine! Reply0
After almost smashing the frigging DS against the cat in frustration at the early puzzles of Curious Village, i am now enthralled with the game and can't wait to get on to Pandora's Box and the rest.

I remember there was an arcade game way back called APB - i wonder if it was by the same guys? I seem to remember it was quite fun but then again i was about 7 so most things were.... Reply0
It would make me a very happy man indeed if Nintendo would just release an expanded, stand-alone Wii Sports Golf game, with 4 or 5 courses and a couple of tournaments.

Although when I played it recently through scart leads on my PS2 on a 42" LCD, it wasn't quite so nice.
