    Physical Education Final? Twilight Princess!

    Exercise?

    Virginia high school student Andrew sends us what could be best described as a Nintendo marketer's wet dream. He writes:


    Last Friday, for my gym class's Physical Fitness Final Exam, my teacher brought in 3 Wiis and an Xbox, all hooked up to LCD projectors projected on the walls of the gym. For 2 hours we had tournaments on 2 of the Wiis in Wii Sports, Wii Play, Excite Truck, and Wario Ware while others played Twilight Princess on another and DDR on the xbox. We were also given the option of playing basketball but all 20 people in my class were more interested in Wii.

    Great, but since when are wrist flicks while playing Excite Truck and Twilight Princess considered exercise? Oh, right, they're not. Brian Ashcraft
