Ok, this is where the Wii-mote is quite fun to use, with a bit more precision added in. The Clone Wars demo, while not live, did look quite good.
I'll buy this one!

Game Preview - Wii Music
With the new mod to increase the Wii-mote's sensitivity, and the Wii Fit pad to serve as pads for your feet while drumming, Wii Music might have a few converts.
And of course, Miyamoto led this game's development, so it probably is quite good.
But I just don't see folks leaving Rock Band or Guitar Hero for Wii Music.

New Wii Motion Plus for the remote
Nintendo unveiled a new mod to plug into the Wii remotes - the Motion Plus. The idea is, it plugs into the bottom of your Wii remote and makes it a lot more accurate.
Um, I want that for free. And sell new Wii remotes without this as a separate mod... thats retarded.
But from the demos, it does look like it works.

Game Preview - Wii Sports Resort
Ok, the Wii Sports game was the best received game overall, so here comes the successor - Wii Sports Resort.
Frisbee with your dog.
Jet skiing.
Wooden sword fighting.
Chainsaw pencils.
Ok, its nice. But I was hoping for more.

Game Preview - new Rayman Raving Rabbids
The new Rayman Raving Rabbids game fo rthe Wii looks just as wacky as usual - woohoo!
Every Rayman game is a solid buy! The previous one was more for groups, not as good in single player mode, but still a solid buy... and for groups, really good!
Game Preview - Animal Crossing, City for the Wii
Watching E3 2008 again with Mike. Animal Crossing, City left us quite, quite bored.
So you can roam around the town. You can buy stuff, send mail, cut trees, dig up bunny eggs.... yawn.
But Reggie Fils-Amie (Nintendo America head) looks pretty pissed off, so perhaps we should buy this game.

Game Review - Wii Fit
Kosmix now has a Wii Fit at the office. It was interesting, but nowhere near as addictive as the original Wii sports.
Will it help people get fit? My 2 cents on this - Wii Fit will not be for those who go to the gym or work out even thrice a week. You could burn a lot more calories much faster at the gym... and cardio machines today do have some distracting stats displays to satisfy that need.
For those who don't work out regularly, or are busy, lazy, or not near a gym, the Wii Fit can be a good motivator to get some exercise while having fun, and charting performance.
Forecast - look for women aged 35 - 50 to be the primary users.
And finally, a funny video courtesy of Dan Hendricks - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_iYBmAVuBns
