Hey, hep daddios! Did you ever wonder if grampy and grandma might enjoy the Wii? Well they just might, an if this video from the AARP is any indication, they love to bowl. It’s nice the see the AARP is getting in on console wars. It distracts from Medicare problems.

I can see tremendous benefits for the elderly in owning a Wii. The games are simple aren’t they. They are hardly likely to be able to master the PS3 or Xbox.
Numerous retirement and senior communities in my area have bought Wiis for their residents. The local news did a cover story about its effects on helping elderly with physical therapy and mobility while providing entertainment. I think its great!
P.S. “Geezers” is not a very flattering name for our older and wiser elders. And I certainly would not underestimate seniors abilities as I’m sure many could master other systems if they had an interest in the technology. Look at all the seniors on YouTube. And don’t forget, most of us will be in their shoes someday.
