I don’t think that I feel too guilty about any of my pleasures. But I suppose I could think of something people might want to hear about. Would that justify the juicy end of the prompt?

Sometimes, well more times than not, I like to play with myself. Get your mind out of the gutter. I mean in video games. I just got a Nintendo Wii late in 2006 and it’s quite interesting. It has motion sensors, so it’s not like any other console out there. Many games take advantage of this technology, translating your three dimensional motions into the game. So there are games like tennis and bowling where the motions one would take in these actual sports are translated into the video game. It seems pretty accurately. Then again, you would probably have to play a lot of tennis or bowling to really know if your motions are truly mimicked within the game.

The most intuitive upgrade this system has brought to the gaming world had existed within the arcade realm. The old point towards the screen and click is more accurate than ever. It works great with shooting games as well as other applications. Browsing the internet on the wii is as easy as using a mouse. No keyboard, unfortunately, and typing is especially unfriendly to the wiki.

Anyway, this pleasure is the closest thing to being a guilty pleasure because it takes me away from homework time. I can still see the latest news updates as well as weather, and switch over to look at the wiki all at a click of the button. If I do feel the urge to type something in, I’ll generally have my laptop at my side to post whatever… Interesting or not.
