Chicago Tribune: Old Folks Love Wii

:

Young scallywags better watch out - it looks like older folk are starting to love the Wii, and apparently can’t get enough of it.

That is, according to a report by the Chicago Tribune for the small community of Licolnshire, which details senior citizens who have never played videogames before are enjoying the Wii.

The old folk are apparently so into Nintendo’s white wonder that they’re finding it hard to put their Wii-motes down - a clear indicator that Nintendo are doing a smashing job at appealing to the “non-gamer” market.

Wii “just for kids”? Most definitely not.

    I want the details. I am a director at an Independent Living Senior Community in Louisiana. I heard about the Wii bowling tournament for Seniors and would love to bring to our Community. What a great example of bringing together technology and Seniors!!!! Nancy Sanders
