My bf and I are both gamers, so no problems there. We brought the Wii over to his brother's place though, where him and his wife had another couple over. Aside from his brother's friend, everyone pretty much wasn't a gamer. But EVERYBODY got into Wii Sports, even the wives. I was really impressed with how much everybody was enjoying themselves, particularly the nongamer women. They kept talking about how easy it was. My bf's brother and his wife really enjoyed beating the crap out of each other in boxing. My bf's brother and his friend played a really long game of golf, and they were really into it and having a blast. Me and my bf already knew we'd be into the Wii, but the fact his family got so into it... Nintendo has really sold me on this casual gamer stuff. I'm SO impressed.
