A few months ago I stopped by my son, the college kid's, apartment and he had recently acquired a Nintendo Wii. He showed me how to use it and then quickly proceeded to beat me at both tennis and bowling. It was a lot of fun and I unknowingly got some exercise.

Here is an article from The Medical News that talks more about the benefits.
