You know you have too much time on your hands when you are worried that playing virtual tennis on the Nintendo Wii is adversely affecting your real world forehand.
I was bought a Wii for my recent birthday and due to the innovative motion control sensors I can now play like Roger Federer while drinking a glass of wine. Even wine is not wasted in the gaming world. A new game urinal system developed by two Belgians called 'Place to Pee' makes use of your urine, providing pressure sensitive pads for men to aim at and conquer the universe. If Nintendo decided to produce that game it would certainly add new meaning to Wii.
The sensors on the Wii wireless controllers have quite a range. During a recent singles game, a friend and I took time out to say goodbye to visitors from my hallway, controllers in hand. My wave ended up translating into a serve winning me the set. My friends forehand swipe on hearing the serve almost decapitated me.
I am now a fully trained Wii tennis pro and have even found that I can enter Wiimbledon with my skills, if I could afford rising oil prices to cross the Atlantic to Brooklyn -

There is another way to get to the real Wimbledon as I noticed they were advertising for lavatory attendants the other day. I was tempted to take two weeks off work and spend time in a new 'Place to Pee'.
Have your say
