With game play so good even I get out of my chair to play it, you don't need fancy graphics

For me most other consoles have lost the fun pick up and play element of video games. There is no way I have the time to play long term games that require lots and lots of work, I just want something to pick up and spend a few minutes playing, usually with someone else. The Wii is perfect for that.

I also have a pinball machine and a Mame arcade conversion in my living room, and these have the same kind features, rubbish graphics but so much fun

Cheers

PS - Even after my pretty rubbish genius bar experience, I agree with the whole Apple thing, I won't be buying a PC anytime soon (read as soon as they add bluray to the iMac I am there!)
