Comments on this pledge
- I use the Wii and LOVE IT! I love that it's not just playing your favorite video games on it, but you're actually participating in the movements with your hands and arms. I have Dermatomyositis, which causes inflammation of the skin and muscles, limiting mobility. The Wii, especially Wii Sports allows me to work out my arms while having fun at the same time. When you're having fun it doesn't seem like work. As for improvement, I think they should make more work-out games for the Wii. Also make a more grasp-friendly Nanchuck controller for those who have limited flexibility in the hands.Helen Leung, 11 months ago. Abusive? Report it!
