got the kids one for christmas, and we're been having a ball with it...

was actually sore after playing it for the first time...a few heated games of tennis, and a couple rounds of golf had me 'sore'.

i like the golf and bowling the best.

we had to move the ottoman out of the living so we would have room to run around.

I know what you mean by sore. I love the tennis but you have to be careful in those heated matches. I whacked my son in head. 40-LOVE :lol:

I'm no gamer by any means, but I have enjoyed playing the Wii. Billiards is another fun one. My 7yo is proud of the grizzly bear he killed on Cabelas Big Game Hunter also.

We got one for Christmas -- It is a lot of fun for the family......My 3 yr old girl is a mean bowler!!!! As far as tennis is concerned, if you hold the remote out infront of your chest and only flick your wrist when the ball comes your way, you can hit some mean forehands!!

My sone and I have Madden 08 for the Wii and it is really fun too!

what's the secret on the serve...sometimes it really screams, but mostly just a lob.

Get Tiger Woods Golf with the nerf club I swear I haven't played a game this much since Nintendo duck hunt. They also have a duck hunting game but I haven't heard anything on it yet.

Not much to the duck hunting game. You can select a hunt in MS on the game which is in Coldwater, MS??

On the Wii, I think it has to do with the timing of the flick of the wrist and with the ball height. I have hit two "screamers" back to back only once. So, it could be just a random thing.........

I have figured out how to return them though when my son hits one to me....... Just flick your wrist quick, right when the ball bounces on your side of the court.
