o Rayman - lots of fun - great 'party' game, since it gets people doing *ridiculous* things. Fun, zany sense of humor.

And for me, thats what makes Wii deserve the praise that is is getting. My wife, although she had a SuperNes in her youth never touched my Gamecube or X-Box. I honestly think she has held a 360 contoller for less than 3 minutes, and has absolutly no appreciation for the quality of Gears of War.

But she loves the Wii. The Wii had brought fun gaming to people who aren't gamers. I've had countless game nights that used to come in two flavors. Me playing video games with my buddies, more often than not at their places without a female in sight. And Two, board games/bowling/mini-golf with a pair of, or a group of couples. Now, I've had game nights that include my wife AND video games, that are wonderfully fun, because of the Wii.


That is to say, I for one, am not dissapointed in the Wii software that I've used.
