Why Can’t I Let Go Of My Wii And Guitar Hero?

With the cold, windy weather we had on Saturday I decided it was a good day to clean.  As I was dusting in the living room I started to tackle the intricate chore of dusting the Wii tower.  It houses not only our Wii games and controllers but our Guitar Hero guitars and Dance Dance Revolution too. I realized with dismay that we haven't used any of it in the past three years.  If you have them, have you?

As I was wiping an inch of dust off the Wii tower (not even kidding) I had numerous memories of friends and family that had come over when the games were "in" and spent hours competing against each other.  I wondered why we didn't do that anymore.

I also wondered if it was worth it to clean the dust off for the millionth time even though it is never used.  We even have a bigger TV screen now.  Since I'm still cleaning it and it's still taking up space in my living room here's my plan.  I'll wait for one of those cozy snow days and spring it on my husband with a "guess what we're gonna do"!

Do you still have your Wii, Guitar Hero and Dance, Dance Revolution active in your house or have you packed it away to pull it out for "old school night"?
