Obama Bringing Wii to White House
Barack Obama's affinity for technology is well documented, so it should be no surprise that he enjoys playing the occasional video game. For a politician who's all about change, it's only fitting that he prefers the most innovative console out there -- the Nintendo Wii.
Yes, America, the President-elect is bringing the popular game system to the White House. He bought the Wii as a Christmas gift for his girls but says he enjoys playing too, especially Wii Sports. He told 'The New York Times' that he's mainly playing the bowling game and is scoring much higher than the pathetic 37 he rolled while campaigning. One question remains -- do you think that he, like most Christmas shoppers, had any trouble getting his hands on a console? [From: Joystiq]

"he prefers the most innovative console out there -- the Nintendo Wii."
Obviously, you have mistaken the word "most" for "least."

I hear word on the street for a publicity stunt when he breaks his tv is going to be his hand on experiment: will it blend?
...all presidents need the first hand knowledge, or they'll end up like that last guy who lived in that house.

He doesn't realize yet that he won't have time to play video games. Welcome to the real world BO. He's about to find out how hard this job is going to be.

He better be careful if he ever wants to go bowling again in real life. I used to be a pretty good bowler a few years ago, then recently I picked up the wii and tried bowling and rolled turkey after turkey. Then when my grandmother came for Christmas, we went bowling and I had the worst games of my life.
The strongest spin in wii will just move the ball over half a lane which makes for an easy strike if you start out on the edge. I found out in real life a strong spin will put the ball straight into the gutter and I couldn't get out of the habit I built in wii. Considering Obama is already a really bad bowler, he better watch it if he wants to score any points at all.
