Wii may not be for me

When Wii first came out, you saw lots of stories about it being used in physical therapy. Well, let's just say Wii and Friedreich's ataxia don't fit.

It's not that I mind my 6-year-old nephew saying "You're toast" before we started a skiing event or his sister cheering me on when I got half her score in figure skating. I don't even mind my nephew' disappointment when we were on the same team.

No, the problem is I can't even get it to work enough to choose a character.

I may have to try an xBox Kinect.
