This is Why I Love the Wii

People ask me why I play my Wii way more than my Xbox 360 or that PS3 I still don't own, despite Nintendo's obvious shortcomings in graphics advancement and the console's epic lack of hot titles in which you get to play awesomely badass men who awesomely blow people's heads off in badass ways. The answer is simple. For all of 360 and PS3 games' astounding storytelling, realistic FPS, immersive RPGs and HD graphics, the fact of the matter is that the Wii has games that look like they were conceived exclusively as placebo for pill-popping game show hosts going through rehab. Case in point:

The name of the game is Muscle March. It has a May 26 release date on Wiiware. I will play it, marvel it, knit pajamas for it, and subsequently allow my brain to melt out of my ears. Such is the life of someone who shakes a plastic stick to have a good time.
