LOL @ Funtendo Zii on The Simpsons. I can't wait to watch this on Hulu once it's available for streaming.

I only caught the latter part of that episode, the Zii bit was pretty funny, like the old folks got more energized playing Zii Tennis (like how the patients were stimulated by Jack Nicholson in “One Flew over the Cuckoo's nest”, then the nurse took it away and they were back to their tame manageable zombie state again.

I was hoping they'd go somewhere with that, but considering it was the B plot of the episode, they only used it to make a simple lame joke at the end. >

It just donned on me, the golf game in Wii Sports reminds me of those big screens at a few sporting goods shops in the 90s. There would be a big screen where you'd use a golf club and whack the ball into the screen and on the screen it would show the ball just take off.

It's not much of a game, but it was one of my first experiences with such a thing till I saw this at Universal City
