[QUOTE="Star*, post: 395796, member: 4964"] Okay I was considering getting DF a Wii........then I came across the simple "Deer Hunter" game from Target - you know - orange, plastic shot gun with 3 (THREE) plug in cords to the TV and a fake, plastic log that you secure to the top of the tv with velcro - basically plug and play right? I mean he saw it at target, wanted it - I found it at a thrift store in brand new condition - (a donation) for $2.50 - I thought $40 - to $2.50 .....WOW - so I came home and thought this would be a good test of video games before spending big bucks that I don't have on the Wii - but he insists he wants because of the "air plane flying games". Okay - so I give him this deer slayer thing (OMW) yeah - In the box, is a corded, orange, plastic shot gun, and a fake plastic log with a direction page - a page mind you. NOT a complicated book - a PAGE. I left him go because the cord had three colors on it. Red, white, yellow. The TV? Had three holes color coded red, white and -----whaddya think? Yup. yellow. So I'm in the office, and I hear STARRRRRRRRR! Oh not good. I am not electronically savvy. I don't want to shoot Bambi, or a goose - or anything and I'm hoping against hope that the Sttttttarrrrrrr call was "Come see me shoot junk on the screen' and not the dreaded 'I need help hooking this up." It was as it happened the latter - of course it was. Groan. So I go out, plug in the cords. Then I hear "Well I DID that! hrumph." (Um okay honey bunny, but let me try) - still smiling. Then I turned the TV on and off and replugged everything. "Well I DID that! hrumph." (Um okay sweetie snookems, but let me try - I mean (laugh) you called me right?) Then I turned the little plastic log on and off. "WELL I DID THAT TOO STAR." In such a sarcastic tone I turned around and looked at him. Just looked at him and I picked up the orange, plastic shot gun shook it a couple times - you know like they do in the cowboy movies when they lock and load??? And I man Choook Chook sounds and I put the stock up on my shoulder and aimed it at the wall then turned, faced him and made a PKEWWWWWWW noise.....and said "I bet ya didn't try THAT!" Needless to say.....I saw it today - laying in the dining room, taped back together in the box and as I passed him in the hall he said "I think we just need to give that thing (points to deer hunter game) to one of those toys for Tots things......(then looks at me like a wounded deer) and adds - you know before one of us gets hurt." Ahhhh yes - I just can't see a Wii in our future..... [/QUOTE]
