The cult of Wii

September 25, 2009 by Dave Hamilton

Probably not what the product team had in mind as far as product placement, but . . .

“Minutes after storming into the Florida home of a convicted drug dealer, some Polk county undercover drug investigators were caught on tape playing a Nintendo Wii video bowling game – for over an hour.” – Associate Press.

Seems to suggest the product is engaging?

Certainly communicates it’s not just for children.

Actually – scratch that. Maybe this proves it’s just for children.
