The Wii continues to provide fun for seniors at assisted living facilities

Fun is fun, no matter the age!

Can you believe that the Wii is 13 years old already?! Nintendo's biggest console hit may have come and gone in the eyes of most gamers, but the platform still provides countless hours of fun for those who aren't familiar with the latest and greatest games.

Residents at the Wetherby care home in Windsor Court are just some of the people out there still having fun with the Wii. The assisted living facility just came into possession of a Wii and Wii Sports, and residents are getting a real kick out of it. 85-year-old resident Brian Green had this to say about his time with the Wii.

‘I have been really enjoying playing our new games, I wouldn’t have thought I would have ever be able to play video games, but the Wii is brilliant and so easy to use! I have been loving our tennis and golf matches.’

It's pretty great to see that Nintendo's expanded audience console is still providing fun all these years later. Makes me want to take my Wii out of retirement and fire it up again!
