To this day I still remark that as a pure gaming experience this was one of the most effective and revelatory of my life. I was (and am) a Nintendo loyalist to my core - but I thought the Wii would be a disaster. I could not comprehend why they had chosen this moronic path of motion control and I genuinely believed it would be the last Nintendo console they would release, such would be the calamity.

One game of Wii Sports golf and I knew how wrong I was. Forgive me Nintendo, for I have sinned.
