Really? I find that awesome that a Grandma is loving modern gaming. I would never see my Grandparents even make an attemp at playing games.

we share these stories like the church shares their stories of being saved.

Lol. About as close yeah.

Growing up in a Church hearing all about the Great Commision, well I kinda feel responsible like that twards Nintendo while i'm playing all their great products, and it really makes me wanna do somethin. I testify to all my friends

Ok that sounded really funny, but I do always persuade them not to buy anything but Nintendo products for their gaming needs.

^Same. But only a couple of my friends like Nintendo. The others can handle it now and then, but theyre mostly xbox or PC gamers. :(

My grandma has no idea about anything related to games. She cant even say 'dvd' properly without forgetting what order the letters go in. (its usually vdv or something, my mum does it aswell).

Anyway, I brought my Wii over and showed her tennis cause thats her favorite thing in life apparently, and she was getting all excited and stuff. She didnt play it because she was busy with other stuff, but i was amazed at how she was actually interested in games.

On a related note, I showed my dad the weather channel and he was blown away. I wanna get him to do some bowling or something.

^I had my Wii up at my grandparents for the last two days, but we were so busy I didn't get a chance to bust it out and see what they thought. Although I would have if Ninty used the same output plug so I could use the damn RF cable from my cousins' 64 that lives up there... *shakes fist*

Sad thing is, though not a very good one, and as casual as they come, my grandmother has been gaming longer than I have. She got me into gaming on a 2600 when I was 2-3 years old.
